Doing Nothing

It’s no secret that I have a ridiculously hard time staying still. Yet this weekend I had a wonderful time sitting on a floor for two days straight doing absolutely nothing.

Friday after school, I went with 8 of the other teachers to a cabin about 4 hours northeast of Daejeon. Three of our original singles group (that came to TCIS in 2007) are leaving to return to the States or Canada in just a few weeks, so the weekend was an opportunity for us to spend some quality time together before the end-of-the-year rush.

The weather was not ideal: nonstop drizzle. So instead of hiking or lounging by the lake, we laid in a giant mound on our living room floor. From morning until bedtime we talked, affirmed each other, and laughed, laughed, laughed. I’ve never had more fun “doing nothing.”
