At least two or three days of the week when I get off work I like to
do as little as possible (actually it's more like my life's plan but it is fun to keep busy sometimes like Monday night I had dinner with my Mom at Peggy's and last night dinner with Jenn, Rhona, and Alex). But doing nothing has its appeal and I am always looking for new ways to
enhance that idea. My latest is going to the pool. Round about 3pm when I
am staring at my computer at work I start to think about basking in the
sun. Some days round about 5:30pm I make my way out to the pool with
towel, book, and water in hand. And I sit and do nothing. It's so nice
to do nothing by the pool and it's so nice to do nothing in the sun.
Unless you consider getting a tan doing something. I don't because then
it wouldn't work into my plan. I really enjoy this new venture. I lay in
the sun for about 45 minutes then I jump in the pool. I love putting my
face in the water, so refreshing. Today I actually swam a bit. Did
some freestyle and breaststroke and even about 10 yards of butterfly
before I got winded. Dana Vollmer has got nothing one me.
That's
where I am after work, usually on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Doing
nothing was never so glamorous. Unless it's during the cold time of the year and then doing
nothing is taking a warm shower and watching "Law and Order" and that's
pretty glamorous too.

You must get your love of doing nothing from your Mom. I am starting to excel at it. If it was an olympic event, pretty sure I would medal.
