The Importance of Being Idle

After all the effort during January to achieve various fitness goals, it seemed only fair to give myself a day off today.
Got up late and had a leisurely breakfast. Watched a bit of telly and then had a spot of lunch. Some more telly watching ensued before I decided maybe I couldn’t spend the entire day just lounging around.
A letter needed posting, so a slow amble to the post box and back satisfied the desire for fresh air and exercise.
Rewarded myself with a cup of tea and a chocolate cookie before settling down in front of the telly again.
And, apart from making tea, that is where I intend to stay until it’s time for bed.
A shorter blip than usual but, if you’re going to be properly idle, you need to apply that ethos to all activities undertaken in the day!
