I like how she sidesteps something that can really ruin a day off: the feeling you should be making the most of it.

Sometimes on a nice sunny day, i feel like i should go out an paddle on the lake or go for a bike ride when i'd really rather just putter about the yard.

That puts me in a mind state where i'm not enjoying myself because i feel i should always be doing something else.

I'm not type-A though.

I'm getting older and the Canadian summer is short.

Guess I just want to get in as many of my favorite action sports before i wear out my body.

I'm pretty high mileage from the 20 years of weekly bike crashes and surfing wipeouts.

You are doing something else.
