“Sometimes sitting and doing nothing is the best something you can do.”
Karenn Salmansohn
Thanks, Spidey, for that reminder.
In fact, it’s why I am late posting, for a change.
It’s been half term, yes, but coupled with a couple of weeks off, I had my book launch, as well as deadlines for reports to be written… and I need to make a start on my class lists for next year, too.
So, the last week was BUSY.
Yes, the launch is still going.
Even with a publisher, you have to be hot on the heels of everything, with promotion and the inevitable checking of rankings and ratings.
And I have completed half of my reports. I hope to do a couple more today, so I have less over the next week.
Then I have to tackle that class list. It’s not just as simple as cutting it in half. I have to look at gender and age and take into account notes from the parents and nurseries to see if I can create a decent split that will work. Even though I know that until we finally get these children in, I will never know if I got it right!
So, this morning, I had a lie-in, then made a shed load of graphics for promo time!
And next week, the others are back to school, but I still have my week off. So I will finish those reports and the class list and then make time for my something/nothing!
But I can never totally switch off…Did you manage to order?

So, Peeps, how often do you do nothing? 😊

I can switch off when I have finished something big, but that is short-lived. Still, a day or an evening to switch off is a treasure.

As a Catholic I’m trying to more consciously take Sunday as a day of rest, leisure, prayer, and family time. The need for a Sabbath is real.
