Day of nothing

I had a semi-meltdown yesterday. Work has been stressful, exercising/eating better has been hard, family things have been draining. I had a day of do-nothing. I literally laid on the couch all day and slept. I made myself sick from worry last week. I took a day of mental and physical break. The mail is overflowing on the countertop, but I didn't care. I felt guilty for not catching up on laundry or paying bills. But I told myself, it's just one day of rest. In the span of a year, what's one day to rest and do nothing?

Because of continually napping, I woke up at 5AM wide awake. I'm off work today, so this is my day to catch up. I'm paying those bills and doing that laundry and cleaning out my office. I needed a day to re-boot. We all do. I felt guilty at first but now I don't. Bring it on, Monday.
