My Body Told Me To Rest....

Tweet

I've had a decent sleep schedule this week, but with the cold coming on and then running to the store, I think my body was telling me to take a break earlier, so I listened. I'm on the couch, wrapped up in a comforter, and working on a few writing orders. When I was watching A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving earlier at 8pm, I just felt like I NEEDED to lie down. So I put my laptop on the side and decided to just rest for a bit. I fought sleep to finish the special, and dozed off around 8:30pm. I didn't sleep super long, and I just laid around with my dog Bella when I woke up, but I finally got up around 9:30pm. Now I'm watching the rest of Poltergeist (the original), as it's playing on IFC, and it's my all-time favorite movie. Am I 100% better? No. Do I feel like the nap made a difference? A little. Like I may be able to get through a few more orders. I haven't been where I wanted to be yesterday or today, thanks to the pulled muscle and now the cold. But I'm gonna try to make it work. The client I'm working for adds really short, short and medium-sized orders. If I feel okay, I may take on a bunch of shorter ones tomorrow, just to add to the batch. They're so short, they don't really feel like work. I'm not gonna work on them all day or anything like that. Maybe just 1-2 hours at the most. But we'll see, because I also may decide not to work. We don't really usually have guests on Thanksgiving, as that's more of a Christmas thing in my family, but I still may not feel like working. I may do a few in-between my medium-sized orders tonight too. Anyways, I'm gonna get back to my orders before I feel like I need to rest, because the next time I lie down, I'm going to bed. I'll catch you all later. Take care, everyone. Photo Credit: Pixabay.
