PROMPT May 5th

If your job gave you a surprise seven day paid break to rest and recuperate, what would you do with those seven days?



I would love to say that I would spend each day, resting and recuperating, reading books, taking long walks on the beach. However, I think I would find myself sleeping in and then worrying about everything I should be doing. I would do the dishes, catch up on the laundry, grocery shop and plan meals, I would scroll though Facebook for hours on end and then watch television. At the end of the day I would think about how the day had been wasted and worry about everything I hadn't gotten done. I would worry about what I was going to encounter when I returned to work. How much backlog would there be.

I don't think as a society we understand what it means to rest and recuperate. I think we spend everyday worried about the uncertainty of the next. When I am not at work, we are a person down. There is no one there picking up the work that I am not doing.. It just sits there...waiting for me to get back to it. How can we relax when there is so much to be taken care of. I wish I could just have a vacation, away from the house. Where there was only fun to be every day. But I can't do that right now, my husband and I live with my mother-in-law and it would be impossible to leave her to get away. And taking her with us would not be a vacation...if you know what I mean.

So...that would be what I would do with a week off, to rest and recuperation!
