Last night was a slight whoops. I had plans all week to meet Val and Meghann for a late happy hour: 7PM, Cheap, be there, done. But earlier in the day, I found out our Tampa office was awarded a $26M project in a still downward spiraling construction market, so happy hour started a tad earlier than I had planned. Like… 4PM, Yard of Ale, the entire office, yay? See, whoops.
My uber productive, first Saturday at home in quite some time turned into not-so-productive. I popped an umeboshi plum (a supposed hangover cure) and headed to the pool to meet Val and Amber.
It was HOT! I lasted a solid, muggy hour and then attempted to hop back on the path of productivity. It was looking good! Fabric store, Village Health Market, fresh and sinless lunch. I was going places!
… until I got home and found comfort in my couch. In the battle of lazy Kristin vs. couch, the darn couch wins every time!!
Any tips on pulling it together when you’re feeling oh so lazy??
My battle with the couch secret: 80’s pop rock. Seriously. It makes me want to dance dance dance no matter how lousy I’m feeling! Try it. 🙂
Hope you’re feeling better tomorrow! xoxo
That sounds right up my alley!
I don’t feel lazy too often, so when I do, i just embrace it! I assume that my body needs rest for a reason. If I am in a lazy mood for a few days in a row, I finally force myself to get up, showered, and moving and the longer I’m active, the better I feel. Usually. 😉
The whole being active when you’re lazy makes you feel less lazy thing is a total catch 22!
Congrats to your Tampa office! And it sounds like your weekend was a lot more eventful than mine, so I wouldn’t worry about being lazy.
Thanks!! Is it crazy that I like/miss hurricane days?!
You can do it, Kristin. Here’ s my tip: on the days I’m not motivated to workout or do something, I say “you have to do it for 15 minutes. if you want to leave the gym or stop running/walking/doing yoga after 15 minutes, fine.” Most of the time however, once I get going, there’s no stopping me for at least 30 min. But lazy weekends aren’t bad either. I could use more of those in my life like WHOA!
Lol! I’ll def try out the 15 minute rule. Hopefully no more lazy days like that for a while though!
