Stressed because i'm not stressed..?

It's been three days of not working and i am slowly getting annoyed with being at home & not having any job responsibility to rush off to. I am stressed about not having to work and really do want to contribute to the job market in some way!!

I know have my studies to keep up on(uni just started yesterday), clean my house :eek:, play with doggie, organize everything for the cycling event we're off to this weekend, keep my eye out for suitable positions & bike. I've not biked as much as I normally would this week & am stressed..

In terms of the mtb enduro event we're headed to this weekend, I am torn whether to do part of it (50km) or not. I've been doing hill training, increasing my distances, working on speed etc but I've not mentally trained for it. It's a mixture of singletrack, fireroad & most likely some hills.. I dont care if i'm slow!

I had a lot of trouble with this when I stopped working. Actually, that's why I am back in school, preparing for a new career at age 55.
It's a real problem for those of us who have always been "on the go." Eventually, I began to appreciate having nothing to do. The university work sort of comes in cycles; it's different than work stress. I still get bored on some days, even when I've taken a ride, gone to the gym, or done a lot of writing or reading.
I did some volunteer work for awhile, before I started my substitute job last winter. Is that a possibility?
I think one of the main issues is that I only have one friend who doesn't work, and I can only take her in short doses!
