Do lazy days make you feel rested or unproductive?

I’m not entirely sure what that means. I don’t think I’ve had a lazy day in years, or perhaps I just don’t recognize when my days are lazy and end up filling them with tasks. As a parent, most of my days are filled with chores and responsibilities related to those duties. Even before becoming a parent, my days were packed with schoolwork and chores, leaving me rarely with a restful or unproductive day. I have to question why that is.

I habitually do not give myself time to be rested or bored. That might be something that I have to fix. It’s hard. I could consider watching a movie or show unproductive if I try. I often like to watch a show and then overanalyze it. I find deeper meaning where there is none. I enjoy learning about how a show is made and why designers made their decisions to better further the story. I love that, but I don’t know if I could consider that a restful activity. I think that I will. It brings me joy to do those things, so in this case, yes. I feel rested after going down the rabbit hole on a Wiki fan site to figure out a comic character from the TV show easter egg or an unnamed character I didn’t know about.
