Take a day off!

No, I don’t mean run errands, meet someone at the mall, babysit for only half a day, literally 

                                                   TAKE A DAY OFF!

For me, this isn’t easy, I love to be on the go, getting things done, crossing things off my to do list, but once in a while, when we get the opportunity (the rare opprotunity) we need to spend a day doing something simply because we want to. Watch a series on Netflix, read all day at the nearest caribou, order food and lay on your couch, go get a pedicure. Whatever helps you relax and gives you time for yourself.

Its rare, but its heaven.

The only chance I actually get to do this is school breaks. Semesters are too busy with papers, readings, exams, quizzes, and summers are just as busy with work and activities, the only chance I get is J-term and what a marvelous thing J-term is

So do it for yourself once and a while, go to caribou, bring a good book, and read as long as you want, then go home, order a pizza and take your pick off Netflix for a marathon through the night.

        (GF side-note: Pizza Luce are my faves for GF pizza delivery)

No I don’t recommend doing this too often, we don’t want to get lazy folks, but nursing school is stressful, work is tough, life is stressful, so once in a while, take a day off.

Happy Living!
