You know, you sometimes freak me out – in a good way of course, but still, it's a freak out. Have fallen hopelessly behind on my blog reading and just catching up on yours. What do I find? This post. Why is it significant? Because for the past few days I've been feeling very unsettled – doing things, but just sort of doing them. Not really engaging. Then last night, it finally hit me. I'm bored. I said it out loud to Steve and he took me with a grain of salt. I said it outloud to three people at work today and they were horrified – they did not know what to make of me. I literally just sent Steve an email less than 10 mins ago that was a page full of the word “bored”. Maybe some of the above comments will help.

I did clean the fridge, which made me happy, but no less bored unfortunately.

One of the things I do most often when I am completely frustrated is to pout. Well it's true. Once I get that out of my system I will clean or chug through it depending on which is likely to be more productive. I know for work stuff I am very often distracted by a mess environment so I try to keep it clean. However with my knitting sometimes after my pouting session I can chug through because I have given my brain a long enough break to be able to refocus. Unless of course it's after midnight, then I just go to bed. :)

I clean. I read and chat online. Oh, and I shop, even if it's just aimless online shopping.

Now that the weather's warming up, I find myself thinking about using
gardening as a good diversion from aimless non-work, too.

“I have a tendency to sit and mull and stare because I need to feel like I’m “working” even though I’m not getting a damn thing done”.

Exact description of my behaviour. You can add “aimless surfing” to the sitting and staring.

I also turn to housework (in endless supply…) – or I go crochet something, anything.
If it's really, really bad, I might decide to do some gardening, even if it's not a “gardening day”. Great therapy.
