Motivation
Lack Thereof
I have so many things that I want to do each and every day. For starters, i have a ton of things that I need to sew for an upcoming baby shower that I am co-hosting. I've precut the baby blankets but haven't gone further than that. I have about 85% of the favors done but haven't finished putting tags and ribbons on the last of the bath salts. I haven't even started the nursing cover or any other bedroom accessory for my friend's baby's room.
I started to knit the baby's first tattoo sweater for another friend's baby but had to pull it back, twice. Once because I decided not to do the contrasting colors b/c I am at a real fog with it and second because the damn interchangeable needles trapped my stitches and as I twisted them open, they feel off. I have to knit two, one for the baby boy that was born and one for the baby who's shower I'm cohosting.
Don't even get me started on the house work. I am keeping up appearances, but my house needs to be mopped. I did make myself organize the cupboards. And I am going to commit to NOT buying any more food unless I absolutely know that I am out of it. It's my food addiction, and my fear of ever being so broke that I don't have food, like when I was younger. But i am wasting my money not eating things that could go bad. Damn Publix and their two for ones!
I haven't learned Vietnamese yet. That's right, a whole year of having this glorious Rosetta Stone program and I haven't learn anything. I did at first, but since I'm not actively listening to it and working with it, it's all gone. I was suppose to commit myself to it every day since my test... 0 days so far.
Working out... I've done it like 4 times a week on average. It's suppose to be 2x's a day. I have a cruise that I am going on in October that I would like to be able to fit into a high school prom dress for. Not to mention, just be an overall healthy person. I have lost some weight though. About 8 pounds. I am excited to say I am under 200 lbs. So that is one commitment I have been working at.
I have lost all interest in my business. ALL.. I put an ad in one of the wedding mags and haven't received one single gig. We are moving in about 6 months, so I don't even see the point anymore in trying to make it work, at least not here.
So where do I get this glorious motivation? Can I wish and hope for it? Can I find it under a rock? Is this just introspective ramblings of someone who should just suck it up and just do it.. DO IT!!
Until Next time...
PS I haven't found someone to watch my 3 cats. Which sucks because one is on a special diet. I think that we are going to resort to feeding them all the 'special' food for a week and having someone just come check in on them. Poor needy babies.
