You deserve a day to yourself.
A day where you sleep in.
A day where you get up early, before everyone else, and enjoy the silence.
A day where the dishes don't get done.
A day where you don't wear pants. A day where you don't wear anything at all.
A day where you play video games for six hours.
A day where you lounge in the bathtub until the water gets cold and you start to nod off, narrowly avoiding dropping your book into the water.
A day where you burn a tank of gas without a destination in mind.
A day where you don't leave the house.
A day where the kids have cereal for dinner.
A day where you eat off paper plates.
A day where you don't see or talk to people.
A day where you say "Sorry, I have other plans," even if those plans are playing videogames in your underwear.
A day where you turn off your phone.
A day where you turn a blind eye to dust bunnies, and circles on the coffee table.
A day where you don't beat yourself up for not living life to its fullest if all you want to do that day is marathon episodes Orphan Black.
You deserve a day off.
(Sometimes I need this reminder. I hope you find it helpful, too.)
