What do you do when you cant get motivated?

Quote:
I listen to audiobooks when I'm doing housework. It keeps my brain occupied when my hands are doing mundane tasks.

That's what I do too, keeps my mind busy, right now I'm listening too "Til We Have Faces" by C. S. Lewis
 
I pile clothes and towels on the sofa to be folded so I can't lie down and take a nap. Then I promise myself something fun to do just as soon as I get finished with the "dreaded task" whatever that may be.

Sometimes I call a friend on the phone and let them take my mind off what I'm doing (like dishes) while I git 'r done. (Just don't drop the phone in the dishwater by accident, Yuuuuuukkkkkk!) I think I need a headset or an ear thingy. I'll get one right after I get my head examined.........HA!
 
well as I am pregnant and feel crappy almost all the time motivation is something I have very little of ... so I do the bare minimum somedays do more on days I feel better and talk on here as much as I can...
no list for me ... it would be tooo dang long and would be directed at my husband..

and he would hate that...

my favorite line is I cant do that because I am pregnant...lol

but I just get up and do what I can.. as hard as it maybe somedays.... when your whole body aches like you are 90... it is hard to get motivated

but I think of those lovely chickens that need food and water.. get dresses and press forward so I can watch those silly fluffy butts

Well, I got up this morning and did just about everything I needed to do right away, including cleaning the brooders. Now that I got that done, I feel a lot better. I always do IF I get it done in the morning so from here on I have to try to make myself stay awake after I take dogs out and daughter leaves for school,lol.
Now I am back to being un-motivated again.

I look at the clock and realize that if I keep playing around on BYC, I will be late for work - again.
 
I got a second wind and did more housework. Now I can be on here and not feel guilty,lol.

Well lets see. Today its been raining pretty much all day. I just got up and took a shower. Yes, I know its 3:30. I still need to fill out my dern census and mail it. But I "forgot" where I put it.

I still haven't fed or watered anybody, but its been raining so I bet the buckets and bowls are full. The goats must have had hay left over from yesterday, I can see them in their house chewing cud. So, yeah, anyway.....
