An ‘Easy’ Day

Today was an ‘easy’ day.  Easy in that I had a much needed restful day.

It’s not a complaint, more of a puzzlement, but why is it that when I know I have an alarm to wake me up at x o’clock that I can’t get a wink of sleep?  Well, that happened last night, even though I went to bed tired enough to sleep.  So I thought.

Anyway, puzzlement aside, the first achievement of today was to put the rubbish out.  Again this is the first time I had done this since going down with the flu.  I went straight back to bed and slept for 4 hours.

My next achievement was to unpack a small bag of half a dozen shoes and put them into their new home.

The rest of the day I have spent resting, reclined in the armchair with my feet up, and I managed to work on a cross-stitch project for a short while.  Resting might not be an achievement in itself, but recognising the need to rest most definitely is.
