I'm off until 8 days after the new year,
started on December the 22nd.


Poem Artwork

Here I sit on the sofa,
don't mine being
a holiday loafer.
Loafing in the morning,
loafing in the evening,
loafing at supper time.
Doing nothing rings my chime.


Oh my dear,
no more work until next year!
Don't call me,
I'll call you.
There's nothing anyone
can make me do.
I will wash my butt,
the Christmas cake I'll cut.


I'll eat and then sleep,
pray to the Lord
doing nothing will keep.
I'll sleep then eat,
this cycle will repeat.
I have a vision of something,


oh my!

it's simply doing nothing.

Lol. Whenever I try to just sleep and eat I always wake up so lazy and miserable the next day. Lol. But if you can - why not - beside, such breaks only come ones a year and we do deserve them - if not more.

Merry christmas and God bless, Grady!

Well, normally, I am a "type A" personality -- workaholic, ya know -- But, today, I feel exactly like this poem. Thanks for sharing.

When you want to do nothing, then do nothing... that's my advice.
I have been like this from time to time, just feel like lying around and do nothing.

Loveya Grady!
