Stayed in bed for an alarming amount of time today watching Fast Forward and Full Frontal clips after someone on the other site mentioned that the infamous breakdancing reminded them of Jane Turner doing gymnastics as Berylina Stumpy...

Why do I sabotage myself like this! Spent a very large part of a very fine day in bed, when I actually HAD energy to do other things if I'd just put away the phone. Could've indulged in videos at night instead. Now I am behind on stuff for next week. At least I got a brisk 30min walk in rather than sitting in negativity.

I watch tv in the mornings and then do work and activities until bed time. Morning is my time. :)

I did the same, but on the couch. Watched some tv but was mostly on my phone (and I looked at that clip too!). It does feel like I’ve wasted the day but was feeling pretty blah earlier, so maybe needed some downtime. Good on you for getting a walk in - I reckon half the battle is just getting out of the house sometimes.

Half the battle is getting out of bed, for me 😭 once I'm actually out of my cocoon it's easier to get going. I think I've been so fatigued recently that my body needs some conditioning to want to do something with my life. I fit the walk in with a time sensitive errand. It's the only way I seem to get any exercise in.

It has been nice to completely and fully blob out in some ways though. I feel ready to get stuck into some uni work tomorrow!
