I can't get off my but for anything. I got the house picked up, dishes done, kids fed, a load in the washer, and I have ironed some fabric but other than that I just can't get myself motivated to do anything.

Anyone else feel like this?

Not today, but I've been there before. I always hate feeling that way too. Yuck. :(

Um, I'm totally feeling this way. Yesterday I had about three hours of emotional phone calls related to Jake's school program. The day before that I busted my butt working all day, but in a happy way, on decluttering and organizing. Today I got my hanging file folders, labeler, and piles of paperwork all set up and ready to go but I just can't quite do it. I could sit down and look through my article ideas and write one up and send it out and maybe get the thrill of selling it. But I'm just feeling totally lazy. So I keep checking here, LOL, and reading email, only no one has sent me anything much today.

I have a lot to do but can't quite get started.

I did: not do the dishes, but I really should, washed our king-sized comforter and hung it out, troubleshot the propane heater in the basement that shut itself off (the condensate is frozen in the vent pipe, which is not really a good thing), printed out all the notes pertaining to Jake's program in preparation for filing them, disassembled my tickler file system to recycle it for folders since i got a different kind of tickler system, and made a couple of quick phone calls. it sounds like a lot but I'm home without kids since 7 am, so it's really not. Oh and tended to the chickens, which was about forty minutes today because it's so cold that the water is freezing quickly and the eggs are needing a lot of collecting before they freeze. (Time to bundle up and go out again, in fact...)

I know you posted you have a bit of cabin fever. I do too. I am antsy but I don't know what I want to do. I'm tired but a nap doesn't sound quite right. I want to get the files done but I can't quite get started. Bleh.

Aunt Flo's visiting, I won't be doing hardly anything today. LOL!!

I picked up the kitchen, ran a load of clothes, did school, zoned out, zoned out some more, made breakfast, lunch and I'm about to get up for dinner. Oh and I made some dreaded phone calls.

I really have phone issues. I'll procrastinate until I just can't wait any longer then I get caught in voice-mail h*ll. I always do this to myself, I don't know why.

We are still in the midst of this crazy ice storm. I'm reveling in staying in my pj's, drinking tea and reading here :p

I am moving, but VERY slowly. I vacuumed, had Cyan pick up her stuff and then she vacuumed under things. I moved the stuff in the kitchen, and mopped, but slowly... so slowly that Cyan couldn't handle it and she said that she would do it for me. She is 5 people. lol! I DID however: get a decent nights sleep, AND a nap. That is new. I haven't slept this much in months. So for being overdue and frusterated, I am actually doing pretty well today. And we are having leftovers for dinner, so I don't even have to cook anything tonight. Lazy day? Bring it on. ;)
