Pain, procrastination, and Netflix - welcome to a week gone wrong
I spent the week on my own with hubs away to take photographs at a safari park in KwaZulu Natal (or KZN as we locals call it). I don't mind the solitude and usually spend my non-working time catching up on art projects that are behind schedule.
Yeah right. This time I spent more time procrastinating by watching my latest addiction on Netflix: Korean and Chinese series. Since I don't speak either language this was not an opportunity to do something else while the series played in the background. Nope, I had to watch the subtitles to follow the story.

So yeah, very little sleep (3 hours on Tuesday, and 4 hours on Friday) and not much else accomplished. In the past, I would have hated myself for this waste of time, when I have so many other enjoyable things to do, but no longer. I accept that somewhere, perhaps subconsciously, I needed the time away from other things. So I file the experience in my memory, enjoyed the Korean screenwriting and some excellent acting, and am ready for a new week.
The flip side of all this butt to chair hours of Netflix is severe back pain. I know better, but I don't seem to learn so well as I think I do. Five days of back pain was not fun, but I am getting better since I made a point of moving more often.
April is going to be a hectic month for bloggers around the world, so stay tuned for the reveal next Monday.
In the week ahead, there are so many things happening again, but I will save the stories for next week, because, you know ... life.
Stay healthy, and live creatively until Thursday!
