As sisters I wonder is this because when we were growing up we had to be creative at home because we just didn't go out that much. I really love to have time to myself to think, late at night is when I get my most creative ideas. The days I don't get down time I feel angry and can't wait to hide out somewhere. I guess we all need to be true to ourselves.robynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10289798678966549181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-46042943635188544032009-05-14T01:02:00.000-05:002009-05-14T01:02:00.000-05:00Not only do I need down time from activities, but ...Not only do I need down time from activities, but I also need a good deal of solitude to be at my best. I can handle a day or two without it, but it's more beneficial if I have a few hours alone each day. Fortunately, my family "gets it", but a lot people I know don't.Annie Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123644833186800503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-225154265384717972009-05-13T16:04:00.000-05:002009-05-13T16:04:00.000-05:00RA Guy, I like your style and we sound so similiar...RA Guy, I like your style and we sound so similiar in our days. Two slots a day is plenty for me. :)<br /><br />Debbie, I have always been someone that needs lots of down time, even as a little girl. But, I require it a lot more now - mentally and physically. Otherwise, I do feel like I am about to step off too far on the tight rope!<br /><br />Melissa,<br />It sounds like you have had an extremely stressful and tiring week. I hope your shot helps and you can get some rest. <br /><br />Sending healing thoughs to all of you,<br />CathyAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13076282329093508289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-88948099494550394912009-05-13T15:30:00.000-05:002009-05-13T15:30:00.000-05:00I agree, I pushed myself way to hard this week and...I agree, I pushed myself way to hard this week and I'm paying for it dearly.<br /><br />It's pretty bad when you come home and wish you could spend more time there..lol!!<br /><br />Hope today refreshed your senses.AutoSysGenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01182101665968215991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4078059806926332516.post-82767944601320873392009-05-13T12:05:00.000-05:002009-05-13T12:05:00.000-05:00I'm the same way now, but when I was younger I cou...I'm the same way now, but when I was younger I could go and never notice. It's nice knowing I'm not the only one.

...I too agree we can never have too much down time.<br /><br />At the moment, I am allowing myself two "slots" max, each day. Anything that requires me to leave the house is a slot. If I go to physical therapy, that is one slot. This morning I just got back from refilling my medications, that is another slot.<br /><br />The other day I wasn't feeling too well, so I ended up using just one slot that day and I was fine with that.<br /><br />We recently spoke about limits and I think at times it's just too easy to add "one more thing" to our list. For the time being as my body begins to heal from this latest flare, I will continue to stick with my two slot limit per day.<br /><br />Hope you have a wonderful day!RA Guyhttp://www.rheumatoidarthritisguy.comnoreply@blogger.com
