When I take time off, I have a problem actually doing just that. I’m a planner, and the planner in me has trouble doing nothing for too long. I want to be working on something, and my brain justifies that because it’s not work (read: current paying job) related, it’s not “work” and therefore is game when I should be doing more leisurely activities that don’t require a lot of brain function.
So my goal for the next vacation I take will be to read a lot, write (by hand) a lot, sleep a lot, and daydream. Maybe do a little cooking. Those are about as leisurely as I can manage. I’m thinking I should create a running list of books I’d like to read. Where I have a big-girl-job now, I can take whole weeks at a time for vacation, so I could get a lot of reading done in that time. This list should be semi-long.
So. Suggestions?
