Holiday

Monday, 6th October, 2008

I’m on holiday from work for a week. This is my first break for 14 weeks, so I’m finding it a bit weird getting into the swing of doing nothing.

I got up this morning about 8am (which is a pretty decent lie-in for me, as I’m normally up before 6am), and I’ve done nothing at all since then (apart from shower and make some lunch). And I am BORED.

I have things to do this week, but can’t motivate myself to do them. I’m meeting a friend for lunch tomorrow, so that’s pretty much that afternoon used up, I’ll visit my parents tomorrow evening (get a free dinner cooked for me), and I have a website to design, code, and build for another friend.

I also have a house that badly needs tidied (both inside and outside), and a ton of bills/letters to file away. This task will definitely be done this week, as the state of my living room with papers and books and letters and all manner of other bits and pieces is really doing my head in, and if I don’t do something about it sanely, I’ll end up just piling it all into a big heap and setting it on fire (it is almost Bonfire Night after all). And I kinda need some of it, so setting it alight isn’t really the best idea.

I also want a new table and a new lamp for the living room. This (not the lamp, the table part) would also allow me to finally set up the hi-fi that my brother gave me about three months ago, which has been sitting in the box in my spare room.

So, not sure how much of a ‘holiday’ this week will be, if I do actually manage to motivate myself to get off my arse and do any of the stuff that I should be, and frankly, need to be, doing.
