Slug Day

I have been desperately seeking a super slacker day since the kids got out for Christmas break.

You know.

The kind of day where you eat junk, sleep, watch tv, do nothing you’re supposed to do.

Just be a total slacker.

Today is that day.

Not completely, but for all intents and purposes, I’m calling it my slug day.

I’ve been sick for the past few days, but today I’m feeling almost well. There is nothing that HAS to get done today.

I actually slept most of the night. Which is a stark contrast to the last two nights where I tossed and turned all night and was constantly grabbing tissues to shove up my nose.

I woke up, surfed online, Hayden woke up, we watched The Polar Express (Caitlin woke up sometime in the middle of this), I napped, we ate lunch, watched an episode of Merlin, the kids went to chill by themselves upstairs while I surfed some more and watched my dvr’d reality tv.

It’s been a good day so far.

I still got dressed and am doing a few chores around the house, but it’s still been a pretty slack day.

The hubs called around lunch time and asked why I didn’t answer his phone call a couple hours earlier.

Uh…I was napping.

Totally busted. 😛

Now I’m about to grab a Starbucks and settle in to watch one of my favorite holiday movies…

ELF!

Three days before Christmas probably isn’t the best time to take a slacker day, but I’m doing it anyway.

Besides, there’s far too much stress this time of year. I needed a little down time.

Not recovering from a sickness downtime.

Not recovering from a teen sleepover downtime.

Just downtime because I don’t want to do anything and I want to actually enjoy not doing it!

Tomorrow craziness will commence.
