My husband asked me the other day if I were still writing on my blog every day. No. I stopped to think when the last time was that I actually wrote something and struggled to do so. Then I wondered why. I came up with the simple fact that I am feeling rather uninspired at this point.
I get this way from time to time and t is actually is often at this time of year. I rarely realize it until I am in the thick of it and have a reason to stop and wonder why things seem to be falling apart around me. This was my wake up.
As I sit here tucked rather cozily in my comfy chair with my little lap blanket on my lap and my laptop sitting atop it all, I wonder why things seem to be piling up and not getting done. Well, the answer is as simple as rereading the fist sentence of this paragraph. I am cozy. I don't find myself wanting to move around and complete things. I apparently don't realize this, however, because I have projects half started and impartially completed all around me. The house keeping is out of hand. The laundry as resorted to hunt and peck to put together the essential items. My jewelry supplies sit on one tv tray pushed to the side with a half dozen items started (not finished). I have another tray with partially completed cards for a party for the kids' homeschool group. Yesterdays, schooling supplies are laying in heaps on the dining room table that I do not remember the last time we actually used to dine on. The stack of blank journal books I intend to use to put together my homeschool curriculum I want to write are piled beside my cozy chair along with a half dozen other reading items.
I think I need to get a grip and get some order. My problem is that I tend to see the problem and then make a plan to attack it and get it all completed right away and prevent it from happening again. This usually ends up with me getting burned out ending up right back to where I began.
Do you do this? Or some version of it?
I realized that my blog is also in this list of things to do. Someday. I just can not get motivated. School has been much the same. It tends to slide off to a much more relaxed style in this phase I have each year.
I need to do a major house cleaning and not on my literal home! I need to clean up the cobwebs in my brain and in my daily activities (or lack there of).
So, hopefully, I can find my inspiration. I hope and pray that I can find that little spring flower popping up early. That is always my kick. I need that little spring flower in my brain.
Wish me luck and I will do the same for you!
