Does too much idle time make you anxious?

I know plenty of people who are like this (my wife, to some degree). However, I am quite the opposite. I have a large reservoir of things that I want to do, but have no time to do them. Boredom is a near-impossibility, and spontaneity comes natural to me.

If you like to plan things out, maybe there should be backup plans to account for bad weather. This way, you always have something to fall back on.

While an extrovert by nature I have really come home to myself the last handful of years and LOVE my space and solitude. I think it comes down to remembering that we are human beings, not human doings! Being able to enjoy solitude without constant activity is good for ones mental,emotional and spiritual health. I am the exact opposite right now, I dread being overly busy and am rarely at a loss for entertaining myself.

I spent most of yesterday sitting in the sun on my deck with a good book and my cats playing around me, that is bliss to the 10th power for me.
Learning to be comfortable with your own company is really important.

Yes, it can. I am right now planning things to do for the four-day weekend.

Definitely.

Yes. You might want to have a back-up home based activity planned if Plan A can’t come off.

I try to plan my life so I don’t have too much idle time. That way I really appreciate and enjoy the idle time I have.

It depends on what I have to do during the idle time. If you mean no reading or needleworking while waiting for a doctor’s appointment, or for my computer to load, then it would be a problem.
