bored

ok. i’m bored. it’s official. i might as well be going into the 5th grade this fall. it’s the same feeling i had every summer as a kid. the freedom of summer was great, the sleeping in, the no homework, the rambling outside, then i was quickly BORED. in a major way. i don’t really know what this says about me but i need some inspiration. i’m a little pathetic at the moment. it’s not a lack of things to do. i could clean up the coffee grounds that the dog made a mess of, do some laundry, organize the spare bedhome (aka black hole), wash the dishes, make a creative  menu for the weekend, scrub the toilet, finish the girls’ dresses i started, finish knitting the dishcloth. but, no, for now i am a zombie…walking around like i don’t belong here. i know all the tricks that self help gurus have sputtered out for years, you know, like break it down into manageable bites of stuff to do. focus on one thing and get that done, blah, blah. but the truth is, i am not motivated to. hmmmm, quite a quandry. so, what do you do when you’re unmotivated and uninspired?….just asking. maybe it will give me the extra spark i need.
