Staycation is my favorite vacation. Especially since my house has a pool.

[–] Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social 14 points 1 year ago

Every time I go on vacation I always think that I'd be having a better time at home, mostly because it would be so much cheaper.

  • burned out stressed out

  • husband is going on work trip (you both wfh)

  • plan week off while he's away so you can just go fucking ape and keep your favoured night owl hours, make horrible noises all day woodworking, sort the garden, all that fun stuff

  • file leave, get the fucking week wrong

This used to be me. Vacation is a skill, developed over time! Don't listen to other people, learn what you like to do and do it, And no shame!

If you need to spend 2 weeks sleeping in a coffin under ur house, with chips & shows, u do u babe.

Y'all get to take time off for mental health reasons?

Doesn't matter how stressed I feel, I still gotta go to work... :(

The sad thing about having to live with your parents in this economy, is that I can't possibly take a proper vacation day. If I did, my mom would most certainly use it to get me to do some extra chores. Even if I went to a hotel, half of the time would be spent unpacking and the other half repacking.

This is me whenever I plan on a staycation....and it turns into my mom(bc who can afford to move out???) Finding shiz I need to do and I just can't seem to rest bc gotta be productive 🫠

I've had bad mental health breaks but this is still a good outcome overall.

Imagine being in poor mental state and still having to work, I'd take the break any day.

I was excited for my birthday because I was gonna finally take the time to finish cleaning/rearranging my bedroom, since I gutted the room and then got sidetracked for two weeks.

Woke up today with some of the worst back pain I've ever had. I think I must've strained a muscle or something in my sleep, but it hurts to move.

Why would you go anywhere with a cold? That's gonna certainly be more miserable than staying home with a child, which is also miserable but at least in air conditioning

Isn't this just the plot of a recent Sunny episode?
