That's how I feel right now. It's cold and rainy and I'm itching to get to work on the garden. Perhaps my body is craving vitamin D after the long winter because I feel completely unmotivated right now.
So I'm going to write a list. A "to do" list. Something I don't usually do, but I'm hoping it will give me some things to cross off so I feel like I'm a productive member of society.
To do:
- Clean out my drawers, donate what I can and try to recycle the rest. Figure out what I need to purchase.
- Descale the espresso machine (baby steps, I tell ya).
- Get going on the new bag. (Perhaps I should be more specific here. Hmmmm. . . Knit 20 rows and revise pattern as needed.)
- Review one craft book.
- Review one chocolate bar.
- Clean out one drawer in the office.
- Spend 15 minutes a day cleaning or organizing the spare room.
Okay, I think that's ambitious enough for this week since I know there are other things that will come up -- school, an order for Stamping Online, trips to the post office and library, etc. Here's hoping this kick starts me despite the gloomy weather.
I have been feeling Blah lately too.
The things that I want to do, I can't yet. But at the same time I am not motivated to do the every day wife/mom chores either.
It's a gorgeous spring day and the sun is shining so I think I will spend some time out in the sun, that always cheers me up.

Your espresso machine isn't the only one that should be descaled!
The baby steps are so true. I need to do the same thing so that I can stay focused on the little details at home.

Being cooped up with me for most of the weekend surely didn't help either. Weather's supposed to be nice by Wednesday, at least.
