I am just not capable of relaxing and doing nothing.

I have this whole next week off. I hosted Christmas yesterday, so that was very stressful.

Despite a lengthy to-do list for the week, I told myself that I'd give myself December 26th to do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING and not feel guilty about it at all. No cleaning, no work stuff, no working out. Nothing. Just relaxing. One day out of 10 days off to do.....nothing.

I can't do it.  It's stressing me out just looking around my house and thinking of the productive things I COULD be doing. I think I'd be more happy and relaxed if I started cleaning my house.

That's a problem.

I totally feel for you. I think of vacations as times to clean the house, clean out closets, get projects done etc. I have no idea how to have an unproductive day. lol

I was the same exact way with my vacation a couple weeks ago - I couldn't just take time to do "nothing" - I ended up packing it with Christmas prep, errands, house stuff, and was so tired after!  Today I vowed I'd do "nothing" and I've already been out doing errands, and cleaning house.  What is wrong with us!  lol...  My mom keeps telling me these "days of doing nothing" are fiction and "indulgent" anyway...so I guess I know where my compulsion to keep moving comes from!

I have so much I need to be doing, but I have less then a minute in an auction I am trying to win. Then I will get busy.

I'm going through it too. We're calling it my early nesting phase. lol I can't sit still for too long without going nuts.

I'm the SAME way.  If I wasn't so freaking scared about contractions and him coming early, I'd be climbing on my counters cleaning and dusting out my tall kitchen cabinets, and mopping the billions of floor tiles in our house.  Instead... I'm sleeping all days away hoping it passes faster. GRRRRRR.......  When he's here, I'm totally going to be a crazy person trying to get everythign done to my standards.
