Day of rest
Took sick leave today. Despite my best intentions to be the perfect convalescent - bed rest, sleep, lots of liquids - I ended up spending the afternoon clearing my room. I can now see the floor.
A wonderfully leisurely day of rest. Drifting in and out of sleep in the morning, an afternoon chat with my housemate, sinful microwaveable food, time to actually finally iron my clothes, paint my nails, new sheets, hoovering the floor of my room, some sorting out of my knick knacks into piles. An unusual day of domestic bliss.
I declare, eight day weeks should really be instituted - 5 days of work, 3 days of rest! For once in my life, I'm beginning to think the French might have gotten it right with 35-hour work weeks, and the Spanish with siestas.
Still feeling nauseous though and my bones are aching. Wishing I had slept in the afternoon instead. Feel like an old woman.

Personally, I don't feel like I've been writing enough. I'm missing out too many things, mainly missing the time to think and to let the words flow exuberantly.
Thanks. Will do.

I think I've found a search engine with a sense of humor - I was actually looking for articles on lessons, and here I am on a site called Day of rest. There's probably an electronic explanation for this and I have enjoyed the experience, so no harm done. Have a nice day e* - if that's your real name :0)
