blah
I just feel blah. I've been a little under the weather and have had a headache since Friday afternoon -- just can't seem to beat it. On Saturday I took the kids to the library because Max needed some books for school. I stayed home from church yesterday but I managed to make dinner. Literally all I did all weekend was do the absolute minimum to take care of my kids, read, and sleep. I really thought I would wake up this morning feeling renewed: it's Monday, the kids are back in school, and I go crazy when I don't accomplish anything, so it seemed inevitable. But strangely, I still just feel blah. It's so rare for me to not really feel like doing anything. I looked over my to-do list for inspiration, because I always have a mix of things I have to do and things I want to do. Nothing's jumping out at me. I hope I can kick this feeling soon...

Oh no, did Lucas' attack of the French Vanilla bathroom spray get you too? That sucks, if you've been feeling unwell since Friday. You have had a bit of a healthy streak, perhaps it's just time for you to shut down for a bit. Is there anything I can do?
You feel like reading don't you? You can kick back in Marc's comfy chair and ottoman and just read all day if you have to. I know it's not accomplishing a lot, but maybe that's what you need right now.
Where did you come up with that new book to read? I haven't heard of it before, but I enjoy Alice Hoffman. Is that a stealthy purchase of yours or has it just been buried on your awesome shelves?
Sorry you've got the blahs. Put in a good movie and give in to it! Have you seen Just Like Heaven with Reese Witherspoon and Mark Ruffalo? It's a really cute, feel-good chick flick rainy day movie. Ah heck--go all the way and have some M&Ms, too!
i say take it easy and don't worry about getting stuff done. we all go through days like this and we all deserve a little break...even when we are mom and it is never ending.
I share my condolonces along with everyone else. I know all too well the feeling, and it's hard. I wish I had better advice, but just give in to it for a little while if you need to, but don't let it defeat you. If it's lagging on too long, do something to jolt yourself out of it! Try to do something to make yourself proud! (much easier said than done...)
I hate the blahs- I hope you kick it soon too. Until then, just enjoy a day of doing nothing!
I hope you get a burst of energy soon! It's hard when even the To Do list can't inspire you. But sometimes the bare minimum is all one can manage. I don't think we were meant to run at peak capacity all of the time. Even production machines get shut down to rest from time to time. Why should people be any different?
What if I never get to peak capacity?! I hope you are feeling better soon. I hate the kind of sick when you aren't sick enough to be sick and still have to function even though you don't feel well enough to do that either.
