On the terms of the questioner, no, I probably had a pretty wasted day.

I’ve not done anything about getting myself a job or many of the minor tasks I was going to do. I’ve not been doing some of the things she’d do in this circumstance if she were me. There will be time to do those.

But, for today, being around for friends who needed support was far more important than those tasks that I should’ve been doing. I’ve been too task orientated for too long, and enough is enough. Yes, getting my life sorted here is important; the day to day tasks need doing. But not to the detriment of my mental and emotional well being and most definitely not to the detriment of my friendships, which are very important to the aforementioned emotional and mental well being. Friends will always rank as one of my highest priorities.

So, yes, I had an incredibly worthwhile day, and I don’t consider a single moment of it wasted.
