It is Sunday – many weekends I go down to my office for some hours, to get the chance to work undisturbed. It is very efficient to work during the weekends, but I also have a home to run. And I do not get paid for those extra hours.
Today I had packed my bag to go to the office, but changed my mind – it was not really necessary to go, it was just that feeling of stress, the feeling that i ought to go.
Instead I stayed at home, did the laundry, prepared dinner, did some ironing, went to a nearby cafe and had a latte and pecan pie (very good pie!). Read the newspapers for the last three days, and now I have some time to think and read in the evening. I am proud of myself that I managed not to let the feeling of stress pressure med to go to work on a Sunday.
