Sunday is always the day when weekend guilt sets in. As a family, we tend to be homebodies. I like recovering from work, going for longer walks, and getting into internet things like starting and customizing this micro blog. I also looked into bird feeders with cameras so that I can put trygarden.ing to good use this year. Further, I’m still making my new office cozy and watching Conan’s new show. We have a family board game lined up for later. We will do more once the weather is consistently better, but you won’t ever find us going on sporadic trips or concerts or bars. We like going out to get plants or antiques and then just coming back home.

I guess the problem is when other people ask me what we are doing and then share their intense, action-packed plans. The things I’ve listed don’t seem like much or very impressive when I say them out loud. And I can’t help but feel a bit of guilt as a result.

The thing is, though, this is what we need and enjoy. I’m still healing from surgery. We have a lot of allergies in the house that make most trips too difficult. We like being cozy and around our stuff. I really want to shake the guilt of this, lean into it, and own it–I don’t need excuses! I guess it’s probably very boring to some, but a weekend itinerary sounds very stressful to me.

Hi, my name is Joni, and I like doing nothing on the weekends.
