My life wasn’t complicated enough, so on Friday around 5:06 p.m. I got a voicemail from my health insurance company that the pre-auth for my hip replacement surgery that’s scheduled for April 30th was denied.
The art of doing nothing
Today I took the day off.
I scheduled it off weeks ago thinking I’d go out of town. But my plans fell through.
I thought about just working. I have tons to do. Then I thought maybe I could just be productive. I woke up at 5 a.m. with ideas and plans whirling around in my head. I was listing out all the chores I could get done.
But once the kids left for school I sat down with some thread 🧶 and put on a movie. Then I took the dog outside for a few hours and threw the frisbee. Called my mom. Then I came back inside and crashed on the couch where I’ve been watching Supernatural all day.
I didn’t do anything. I finished a spooky doily. 🤷🏻♀️
Sometimes I forget that I also need to make time to do nothing. (Or do nothing and make something?)
Some photos from our walk 🐶🚶🏻♀️today.
(Still testing micro.blog apps and things)
This is my first microblog post! Can you believe it? I don’t even remember when I first backed the kickstarter. Let’s see if this gives me more peace of mind than Twitter and Instagram. 😉
Here’s a photo of Fergus for good measure. You’re welcome!
