Today was a weird blah day. I guess we all have days like this.

It’s Tuesday. This means it’s my day of French class which I eagerly look forward to but for some reason, I couldn’t bring myself to leave the house.

I was feeling under the weather. My stomach was sore (it didn’t help that I had three coffees to start this morning) and once I sat in my chair in front of the tv, there was no way I could get up again. I thought of things I could do just to get myself out of the lethargy but nope, nothing.

Today I simply sat in my chair, knitted and watched a movie. I did a bit of French homework and after an afternoon nap, made chicken pie for dinner and waited for my husband to finish work.

If I really think about it, I have lots of things I can be doing but I just don’t feel like them sometimes. During these times, I just have to lay low. They pass. Tomorrow I’ll be back to full energy.

I’ve noticed that I need to have my weeks and days planned ahead. Events, outings, golf games, meetups. Something to look forward to. If I have a clear diary, I feel a bit lost. Overwhelmed by choice, paralysis by analysis to the point of doing nothing. However, it doesn’t last long. I’ve also noticed that weather affects me. I’m more energetic when the sun comes out. 😊

Tomorrow it’s golf day again. This week I would have played 4 x 18 holes. Maybe this is another reason why I’m feeling it.

Each game goes for about 4.15 hours. Add another couple of hours driving there, preparing and socialising so you end up being at golf around 7:30 am until 2:00pm.

Come home, have a shower and then you’re basically zonked out for the rest of the afternoon. It’s a great way of filling in large amounts of hours in the day.

The sun has finally come out now….
