And rain is forecast for the next nine days. That after all the downpours yesterday. I wonder if we will have to grow webbed feet in order to get around!
I got a lot of work done on the computer yesterday, answering communications that I have just not had the time nor energy to respond to...but I managed to slog though about half of them! Even paid my bills. I want to finish them today.
Maybe I am getting out of the summer slump...is that possible? How do you get out of a 'slump'? I guess I should define what I mean...a feeling of just not wanting to get moving and doing anything but the absolute necessary things...that everything is just too hard to do so why even start! Not really depressed...not really tired...just blah! Or maybe it's that you have so much to do that you can't get your head around it and start leaving things undone.
The experts say to start small and focus on getting only one thing done. Well, I did start with the communications, those pesky things that I just didn't get around to...even the ones I wanted to respond to. Thing is, I still did a lot of work on other things...
Another suggestion is develop a routine, or get back to one. That's one thing that I haven't been doing. My routine is to write down on my calendar three to five things I want to accomplish that day as well as my exercise schedule. My calendar has been sitting unused since I got back from my trip. However, I have to add that it was shortly after getting back that the kitten showed up...maybe he's the culprit?
Another idea is 'movement'...I did get up early and walked outside. But I have been exercising inside all along! Is getting outside exercise better than inside?
One important aspect to consider is to not ignore your slump. Acknowledge it, accept it and then try to work out of it. Well, that's what I'm trying to do. As I said yesterday, days are still crazy instead of lazy and hazy but you can still be in a slump.
Oh well, enough of the navel gazing...if you're in the same boat, guess the only thing to do is work through it...
Be safe, enjoy the day and take care...
Talk with you tomorrow...
