I am so unmotivated to do anything productive today. I have loads of boring business to do (you know- filing and organizing papers, researching/writing a will, re-strategizing the budget....), but I cannot make myself do any of it. Now I'm even blogging about not doing it. That's a bad sign, me thinks. So far today, I've cleaned the toilets and made poppy seed bread. I'm pretty sure the latter was a stalling tactic. The former was the sad realization of what life with an almost potty trained toddler is like. And what the bathrooms will probably look like for a long time to come. Gross. Although, mark my words....if I teach my boy nothing else, he WILL know how to clean a toilet. And he WILL clean the toilets as soon as possible.
On a positive note, my goals for 2012 are still making me itch. In a good way. I've started my 2nd and 3rd books. Yeah, at the same time. The 3rd is The Organic Lawn Care Manual, so I've gotta read something with a little more pizzaz as I plow through it. I've started a list of how to serve my man that doesn't involve cooking. Hmmmm, what else? Our neighbors have been over for dinner. We've had a couple of great 'Sabbath rests' as a family. And I have seeds sprouting in the kitchen. I learned from last year's mistakes and now know which to plant ahead of time inside and which to sow directly into the post-frosty ground. Yeah!
I was forging ahead with yard work until it snowed this weekend. The sun is finally peeking out from behind the clouds now, but it's still a soggy, dripping mess out there. All the more reason to get the boring stuff out of the way today, so we can spend the rest of the *beautifully forecasted* week outside. Dude, get on that. Ready, steady, go. Now.
