What's the deal?

I did get my leaf blower put together - it took all of 1 minute LOL!! I tried it out and it has a lot of power! It almost knocked me off my feet! The air blowing is adjustable, but when I have it on full blast I almost have to hang on to it with both hands. Right now it is just sitting on the garage floor so I will have to find a place to keep it. I wish I would have bought one years ago.

We got a dusting of snow last night. It must have been very wet because some of my ornamental grass was bent over with the weight on the frons.

Lately I have been lacking motivation to get anything done. What is the deal with that? I don't know why. Maybe I will try making a list of three little things to get done each day and maybe that will snowball into getting more done. I looked at my list of things to do around the house - I have a white board with the list by room of what needs to be completed - and the list is quite long! It will never get done if I don't work on it! I also pulled out my UFO list to report on Vicki's blog Colorways by Vicki Welsh my progress on my UFO list and that was just plain sad! LOL!!! Nothing much knocked off the list for this year. I need to get my act together.

You do so much usually, maybe it's okay to slow down once in a while.

I am always amazed with all you do every day. Maybe your body and spirit are telling you to slow down for a while. Instead of 3 things a day, start with one or two a day for a week and then 3. Treat yourself to a little rest! If you wear out, the work will never get done.

A major list helps me but gets too long. So I have daily reminders on my computer calendar. They don't ding {because that's annoying} but they roll over daily until I cross them off. I don't add another step from the major list until the first two on the calendar are done. Well, that's my current way to fake myself out. Ha.

I think we all go through time periods of lack of motivation. I think we have it ingrained it into our minds that we have to be busy all of the time but we really can stop and take breaks.

Oh, yeah. I know about a lack of moving forward. I did precious little of that myself. Still recovering from the flood trauma, I guess. Maybe 2019 is our year, huh?
