When transitioning to homeschooling from traditional schooling, a period of deschooling usually happens:

In a practical context, it refers to the mental process a person goes through after being removed from a formal schooling environment, when the "school mindset" is eroded over time. Deschooling may refer to the time period it takes for children removed from school to adjust to learning in an unstructured environment.

or in a nutshell "relax and don't do much for a little while". I don't have any experience with this as none of my kids ever went to school, I have heard/read recommendations of 1 month for every year the child has been at school. Guess some would take more or less time depending on the person. It doesn't seem too far a stretch that any given adult used to a 9-5 office job with possible insane overtime who suddenly gets dropped would undergo a similar process. If the rough guideline of 1 month for each year spent in the workforce is applied it wouldn't be too surprising for some people to spend a year or so being a lazy mass consumer before finally getting around to doing all of those things that they said they wanted to do :)
