I did some work on the central console of my MGB, getting it ready to act as a template for a fiberglass version. I've also been working through some self-discipline exercises over the last two weeks that have made a real difference, but they also drag you down. Habit change can be exhausting.
If I was still working, I'd have a cup of coffee right about now so I'd be able to be productive the rest of the day. I'm not working, so I won't. I discovered that afternoon coffee led to evening anxiety from caffeine letdown which led to more beer.
Instead, I think I'll sloth about. I'll crank up my Kindleator and see what books I've got in it that will interest me.
How about you? How do you deal with a severe case of listlessness?

You're retired??? And you called me a slacker? OK, in jest [I hope] but the only cure I know is to do something. Any job around that needs to be done even if it's only tidying up.
ReplyDeleteI guess naps are good, if it was good enough for Churchill..... but it's something I've never been able to do and anyway any job I've had, taking a nap during work hours would have been a firing offense.
Yeah, I retired six days before my mom fell and broke her hip. Talk about blessings! I was able to nurse her through her last days without feeling conflicted about missing work.
ReplyDeleteFear not, I'm going back to work in a few weeks.
*looks at six kids*
ReplyDeleteI keep going, but I whine about it. :D
Tired of being told to wash your hands, yet?
