Im slowing learning (and accepting) that idea. I'm not much of a coush potato, and honestly, I wouldn't get knitting done if I didn't do it during movie/TV time. But Im also trying to work in some quiet time, even if it's reading for only a half-hour.

For some reason I was always finding tasks around the house to stay busy, leaving little to no time for fun projects or relaxation. <br /><br />I ended up using a to-do app on my ipad to help me get things done “enough” but not overAmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03325740829904993279noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6861145849543681491.post-1253658657774841772015-01-10T12:33:15.541-05:002015-01-10T12:33:15.541-05:00I agree!

The truth is, of course, that I just choose not to, no matter how nice it sounds. I always think, once I get through all of my projects, I can do that, but of course new projects always pop up before I'm ever finished.

I was literally just having that dilemma this morning: here I am on a Saturday, the first in a LONG time with no obligations other than one quick errand. The hubby is out of town, so I really have everything to myself. <br /><br />But still, I can't TRULY relax!
