It's important to give oneself permission to have time off to just relax. It's only recently that I decided that Tuesdays are for relaxing for me. And sometimes I hear a little niggling voice in the back of my mind saying, "You should get off your butt and DO something." Lately, though, I've been telling that little voice to sod off instead of listening and obeying. It gets easier with time.
it is really important. while i have often taken days for myself, a lot of time, i have spent too much time with the sense in the background that i was being 'bad' in some way by doing that. well because when the to-do list is in the three digits, it's easy to think all my time ought to be spent chipping away at it, lol. i'm still working on figuring out how to adjust my schedule to appropriately accommodate work and leisure, but at least now i have a healthier way of looking at it.
An evening off is a very good thing. And yes, it is important to allow oneself to enjoy time off and treats. I know it's easier said than done, but you've deserve it!
