Hey, Put That Vacuum Down!
YOU GUYS, I HAVE SOME GREAT NEWS!
Today is National No Housework Day. That’s right–there truly is a day for everything, and today happens to be a great one, especially because it is a Sunday. Let’s be real: everyone feels totally obligated to do a bunch of chores on Sundays because you have spent the whole week (still) not putting your laundry away, washing your dishes, weeding your garden, etcetera, etcetera. But today, I give you permission to put it off for another day! Even if it is Sunday! Come on, you guys, this is a national holiday.
Okay, so here’s what you cannot do today:
- vacuum
- wash the dishes
- wash your laundry
- dry your laundry
- put your laundry away
- mop
- take the trash out
- wash the windows
- fluff the pillows
- clean the toilet
- scrub the shower
And here’s what you can:
- lay in your bed and catch up on a good TV show
- go to work, if you absolutely must
- drink mimosas, or hot chocolate, and lots of coffee
- (but don’t clean the glasses!)
- turn up Bey super loud and dance to her diva vocals
- create trash
- eat popcorn
- go on a walk, run, jog
- play hopscotch
- watch an awesome movie
- (like Jurassic Park: 3D)
- paint your nails
Do you guys get it? Okay, I have some other good news. Today is also National Coffee Cake Day, so go to Starbucks and get a piece of cinnamon swirl coffee cake and/or make some of your own.
But don’t wash the dishes afterward!
Happy holidays!
