Raise your hand if you somehow feel guilty for relaxing!

Maybe I can do some projects around the house... (two weeks later after building new furniture and reorganizing everything) Jesus, I'm exhausted... maybe I should paint.
It's called a hobby
I am not even relaxing hard enough. I could be relaxmaxing rn
I’m on sick leave, all my colleagues are telling me to chill out, my body tells me to chill, I still wonder “can I chill effectively?”
I relaxed partly by focusing on (finally setting) up a uptime monitoring VM.
Because...why not ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Meeeeee
I've taken to calling real relaxing days my "burn days" like I don't do anything noteworthy. Like I'm just burning the day and not even trying.
There is a certain negative connotation, but I find the label useful to remind myself I don't need to flourish on those days.
I sometimes daydream about if all the stuff I have to do or should do could be as fun as fun things like video games or amusement parks and that good for me food was as tasty and addictive as bad for me food. So like complex carbs could be tastly like simple carbs and vitamins were like sugar. So the produce area would be like going through the candy isle. Similarly would like to be addicted to excersise and a standard routine where I go in and do stuff that other people want done and of course housework would just be orgasmic.
