In the off season my favorite kind of Sunday afternoon is spent watching movies and reading. Today I am watching for the billionth time, Return to Me. There is not one single thing I would change about this movie, I love it so much. If you haven't seen it, go right now and order it. You won't be disappointed.
In a little over a month however, my Sunday afternoons will be drastically different. Racing season will have begun and instead of a quiet afternoon at home, I will be enjoying the exact opposite. Right now I am looking forward to it although by the end of the season I will be longing for a quiet Sunday.
I spent equal time with the couch and my office today. I have gotten out of the habit of working in my office now that I have the broadband internet and my writing has reflected it. Today I spent filing. I am usually highly organized but in the past few years I just didn't have the energy or attention span. Now everything is where it belongs, which is a comforting feeling. I also did the purge and burnt a bunch of paperwork, a very cathartic exercise that I recommend to anyone who lives out in the country like I do.
It's important to take time to wind down. The mind & body need the quiet to sort itself out. It may just be me but I need time to just stare blankly and do nothing. One would think with the ADD this wasn't possible but I say Because Of I need it.
Today I can say Mission Accomplished.
How about you? how do you relax?
