Lazy Day here also. But laundry day also so I have clean clothes for work and play. It was Memorial Day here in the US but I did nothing to honor the veterans -just took the day off from everything.
Not looking forward to working even if I like my job. It will be a highly stressful week - I have them occasionally but I will get through. In two weeks I will be in Niagara Falls to see the Falls with a friend. So I will be traveling which is what I like to do with a friend that I like.
Yeah, I like my work, but I would rather be do anything else than getting back to it today. Will just plan to get through without draining myself too much. Hope you enjoyed the day off and work goes OK,

I am awake. Fortunately it is gone 9am and I don't remember lying awake too long, so I think I got about 8 or 9 hours. I certainly had some weird and very vivid dreams. In one I was on a beach and jumped down, a sand dune, then changed my mind to get back into the magical city that had everything including a beach, but I couldn't get back up, then I thought, I'm dreaming, I can just switch locations. I was in a court case where I had to assassinate someone, and also in my old school overnight, exploring its dark cellars, but then lights showed up outside and I had to hide in a secret panic room. When I woke up (in the dream, I actually slept in a dream!) the school had turned into both an old castle and a hotel, and some kind of festival was going on outside, my plan was to exit the panic room and mingle with the guests, maybe steal some toast and marmalade from an unattended room, but then I woke up for real 🤯

I feel pretty bleary-eyed and in wake up shock, but only on my first coffee. Things usually get better! 🤞
 
I follow this girl on youtube who says stepping into her feminine energy was something which helped her overcome her depression. I would love to achieve that. I mean my interests are always girly, my looks are very feminine, but when it comes to energy....ugh.
Feminine energy is about being all calm and relaxed while i wakeup in the morning, get ready in a rush, always carry out a huge backpack with alone 7kg worth of notes and have to run for the bus everyday and comeback home by midnight.
Tbh this lifestyle has made me stressed out. Idk how I can slow my day down and still be productive.

Well, it's a day and it's not yet quite over. I felt waves and waves of anxiety going back to work (well, to my laptop, I haven't left the house today). I had to really ease myself in, I always get somewhat anxious transitioning from doing nothing to full on go mode, then wonder why I was anxious by the time I finish! I didn't do a lot of work - few hours admin and a video meeting. It's enough. I might log on and do a bit more after supper if I'm in the mood or bored, but also might not!
 
I really do not feel well tbh. There was a point where i was crying in the library for half an hour.

And yet i noticed that eversince i wokeup and started getting ready to when i cameback home and still had to keep going and do stuff like showering, making cold brew coffee for tomorrow morning, cleaning the bathroom etc.... its been 15 freaking hours!
I was outside the house for 13 hours with a hectic schedule and even the combined 2 hours in the morning and at night which i was at home i wasnt sitting or chilling. I just got to lie down 5 minutes ago.

Isnt it freaking crazy how much potential I have to be productive despite not even feeling well...im impressed in my own potential.
