Restless or Contented

I woke up this morning with a strong desire to do something, go somewhere, read something, try something new...

This seems to happen a lot. Is it my nature? Is it yours?

Often I feel this way, but seldom do I act upon it - maybe I should.

Same thing with my hubby today.
I think the Spring approaching gets us all restless.
But, we have a lot of sorting out to do in our house, so he has to wait.
Learning a new skill is good IMO.

I am contented if I can stick to my routines, otherwise I am restless.

Hi

Restless.

I need to move,not driving has given me a view of life I do not want.

A new house,very small,walking distance of everything.

Give the money to the kids,but another £800 a month to blow on myself.

My two are happy with that,travelling here I come.

Re: Restless or Contented

The weather has put me off doing all sorts of things. Last week for me was full of things going wrong, so I've been content this weekend to go out for a nice meal with my wife on Friday, followed a few beers with a mate yesterday afternoon. The rest of the time I've just been relaxing doing virtually nothing.
Must pull my finger out tomorrow though and get back to that gym again, pending motivation issues!

Re: Restless or Contented

I get restless when the weather is so bad but I have a little project on right now.

I have a little box retrieved from a skip, it was very badly damaged and covered in a plaster type substance and old paint and paper. I've stripped it right back and amazingly underneath all the rubbish its a charming little box wood inlaid with mother of pearl.

It will never be perfect but I'm having fun giving it a second life it will to house my TV remotes and will sit prettily on a coffee table I might put pics up when its finished.

Re: Restless or Contented

Quite content atm

I like nesting so the cold weather has been a good excuse to do just that

I even looked at some wool today thinking I’d get the crochet going again but then realised the dark evenings are coming to an end at the end of the month which means bikes back out and exploring the locality feeding the new foals apples and carrots
