Surprise Days Off

I've had quite a few surprise days off since Christmas. Bad weather. Doctor Conferences. Doctor's personal emergencies.

I don't like it.

I do way better with a routine. It doesn't have to be a "normal" routine, but it needs to be a routine. Too much free time is a bad thing for me. I tend to eat too much, drink too much, and not get anything done. Oddly, it seems to add to my insomnia issues as well.

I did make myself a list today and I actually accomplished all of it except one thing and that couldn't be completed only because I didn't have the supplies I needed to do it. Today was the exception.

Most people would be ecstatic to have unplanned free days. I am not most people. I'm reliable and I like to put that on display. I can't do that if I keep getting extra days off.

Anyway, I should be back on track tomorrow. But then I'm also working on Saturday and that's going to goof me up, too.

I'm done whining. I have a good job and I'm thankful for it. Somehow I will teach myself to be thankful and productive when I get an extra day off instead of stressing out about it and vegetating.
