It's almost 11 PM and I am in bed. I will just post this discussion and hit the pillow. The weekend gets over and I need a good night rest tonight to get back to business as usual from tomorrow.
And Yay
it was a wonderful weekend. I didn't plan for anything except to keep it happy and relaxed 
. So, I did things that make me happy and what gets ignored on a busy weekday. And I deliberately kept it a chore free weekend. I did start with cluttering and organizing in one of the rooms but then left it in between 
. I closed the door and have latched it as it's a mess and you will struggle to find space to put your foot there. The sight was troubling me, so I chose to close the door and not let it distract me from my goal to have a weekend lazy and relaxed. I read some Hindi poetry book and some old Hindi poems written by me in my old diary from college times. It was nostalgic. I did watch four movies and started a new web series. The maximum TV watching in years. I did some bit of garden work and went for walks in the neighborhood park, a little ahead of our apartment .
So, I did all that to have a really happy weekend.
The week ahead at work is not demanding at all. In fact, I hardly have any work there. It's exam time and no one comes for sessions..All parents meet is over till March end. I am just going there as it helps me to be focused there and finish report writing and some work related to school magazine. I can do them from home, but I stay more focused there and can finish a lot even if I go there for two hours. The main energy would be needed to organise the messed room, it will take few hours every afternoon for three days. I can't give more than that as I have therapy sessions starting in the afternoon at 4. Also, the chores that were supposed to be taken care of during the weekend will have to be handled during the week.
It's okay. I have no regrets... The weekend was an ideal HAPPY one.
I will see you tomorrow afternoon. Take care. Hope everyone had a good weekend.

@arunima25 It is early still on Tuesday morning. We had a long weekend and I feel relaxed and happy from that, it should be a great day today.
I wish the same for you.

@Juliaacv Oh! Yes. It was a long weekend there. My husband too had very less work on Monday as it was holiday in the US. His clients are mostly in the US. Glad that you are relaxed from that long weekend. Have a good week.

Why to recover? Was the weekend stressful?
This week is not too much at work front, I just want to finish few things else the pending things get overwhelming.

Thank you. I deliberately try to keep my weekend slow and relaxed, it's the idea of an ideal weekend for me. I need to unwind and rejuvenate for the coming week

Yes, those with OCD can relate. If it's in sight, we get restless. Now, from the last two afternoon I am giving some time sorting it. I have made some progress there. After clearing the notifications, I will go there again.
