 We use being lazy as a habit. So you can´t say in Turkish I was lazy if you act lazily sometimes. You can use here "kendimi tembel hissettim".

 Yes it sounds better. The first sentence sounded weird. But then I thought about other sentences like "Dün çok tembeldin(You were very lazy yesterday)" And it seemed ok to me. So I am now not sure whether "Yüzmeye gitmedim çünkü tembeldim" is wrong or not. But it sounds weird to me. So I wonder what the opinions of other natives are.
