I’m Taking a Day Off

May 9, 2013 By Laura

This is a foreign concept to me.

 

Rest?  What is that?

I’m tired.  I started writing a blog for today and realized I didn’t have anything compelling to say.  Rather than throw up something half-assed I decided to take a day off of blogging.  *gasp*

do all the things

Instead, I’m catching up on my “real” job and eating tasty foods.  And praying the world won’t end.

And reminding you to click here to enter the giveaway for some bangin’ Bose Headphones (seriously – they rock).

Back tomorrow with some #strangebutgood cookies!!!  Come by and link up your fun creations!  

***

It turns out sanity/relaxation are not overrated.

When was the last time you took a day off?

How do you know when to cry “uncle!”?

    Good for you for taking some time off! I’m actually doing the same thing. Had to call out of work tonight because I just feel like crap…for a second I was like, “ohhh time to blog” and then I was like, “NO…time to REST!” And with that, I am going to bed…BEFORE midnight! *gasp*

    I think that’s awesome you’re taking some time off for YOU! Enjoy it! I often feel a lot of pressure to blog everyday, when it’s just pressure I add on myself. I’m sure no one even notices when I take a day off.
    Go eat some tasty food now:) And extra rest.

    I’m still in go-go-go finals mode but I know as soon as I’m done with my papers, there will be many days off. 🙂 Enjoy it!

    I need a day off!! So so great that you are taking some time off. We all need that time to reset and recharge. Now if I could just take my own advice…

    Ha! I remember freaking out about taking a day/s off back when I’d first started blogging. Breathe lady. Life is more important than blogging. No need to justify anything!

    Enjoy your well deserved day off! Sometimes, I think a day off from blogging is so FREEING. 🙂

    I love days off but they are the hardest for me! I can’t sit still! I’m taking one off tomorrow before a race Saturday! Enjoy your rest girlie!

      I’m the same way! I think I want to rest… but then I get antsy.

    Enjoy your day my friend! I soooo need a day off! I hope you have a great one!

    I’m honestly in awe of bloggers that post every day (or multiple times a day)! I just can’t figure out what to write about that often, so I take days off here and there for sure.

    Can we plan our next blogger get together? I vote Chai Pani or Panahar.

    I love getting a day off here & there. Until I get bored and start doing “non-relaxing” things! 😉

    Well deserved!! Sometimes I take entire weeks off 😉 No one minds!

    I LOVE THIS & YOU!!!!!! Thank you for doing this!!!!!

    BTW, I used to blog 7 days, then 6 then 5 & now 3 & I still feel overwhelmed BUT I do follow many more people now & read tons more blogs.

    I hope you had a wonderful sleep & rest!! Think about cutting back your blogging days – it will be good for you! 🙂

    Can’t wait for the COOKIES!!!!

    REST! I used to not take rest days from working out, from blogging, from anything. I have seen the light though. I look forward to rest days. Mental and physical re-sets. I also look forward to not blogging on the weekends. As much as I enjoy it, it’s really nice to disconnect and spend more time actually living.

    You have certainly earned it. I am also opting to do jack-all today. Gonna visit a friend, meet her new bambino, and not worry about anything that has to get done.

    Good for you! As much as I love you I can live a day without you 🙂

    um, have you seen my poor blog lately? I have been taking AMPLE time off 🙁

    but yeah, every now and then it is necessary – and I commend you for doing so rather than trying to force it. ENJOY

    Proud of you Laura! Sometimes it just has to be quality over quantity… that’s at least what I’ve been telling myself lately when I don’t most (most days)

    Take more than just a day off, Laura. It may feel weird… but it is ok… and good for the soul. 🙂

    I’m already planning on doing the same thing tomorrow. Ha! We must all need a collective break.
    I hosted a baby shower, you did a small figure competition with months of worth of prep work leading up to it. Just some minor things. 😉
    Enjoy your break. Do not do all the things; instead rest and relax.

    Enjoy your day off! 🙂
    I have days like that illustration ALL. THE. TIME. Today for example when I battled with my laptop uploading pictures for 2 or 3 hours for ONE post lol. Dangit. It happens! 🙂

  24. Nicole @ FruitnFitness says

    I took the day off of blogging today too, I hope you enjoy your little break!

    Good for you!! When I first started my blog I felt SO MUCH pressure to never miss a post! It got to the point where it was stressing me out which made no sense because I started it for fun!

    Now that I’ve relaxed a little bit I enjoy it SO much more. Enjoy your break – we’ll all be here when you return 🙂

    Rest is good! I do 1-2 days a week when it comes to training. Every 3 months or so I take a week just to recovery mentally and get focus back…and especially some rest for this beast 😉

    Hope u r enjoying ur rest!

    I noticed this week that I’ve gotten back to blogging almost every day – so I took yesterday off on purpose. Join the fun & plan a day off a week – I promise it’s awesome. 🙂

    Whoo hoo! I was wondering when you would FINALLY just take a day off. You are the hardest working girl I know. Seriously. I hope you enjoyed it. 🙂

      Did that second sentence sound bitchy? I didn’t intend for it to. I promise!
