laze around
Idle the day
To laze around is to spend time idly, doing nothing productive or purposeful: We lazed around the house all Sunday.
The phrase emphasizes aimless relaxation rather than deliberate rest—lounging without agenda.
Sometimes implies mild self-indulgence or avoidance of responsibility.
