Unmotivated

I got so much to do today, and so much I wanted to get done…but now I don’t feel like doing any of it. First of all, I am tired. So tired. I slept much of the day yesterday. I am wore out.

Second, my day is kind of shot because the boys are home from school. Meningitis scare at the area’s schools closed down the district. Yay.

Third, what I have to do is much of the same old, same old: laundry, dishes. So tired of it all. I am finally caught up in the dishes but I have a few in the sink I need to take care of. Of course there is stuff I have been wanting to get to but never seem to have time for– I need to clean and organize the whole house…plus we have fleas and I need to treat for that. 😦 But I have no energy…and I hate cleaning when people are home.

Fourth, and last, I don’t feel like doing anything but napping–barring that, all I want to do is read articles, do a little writing, and then play The Sims 3 (only I can’t because I have too many browser window open with all the articles I am interested in). Yeah, all I want to do is waste my time. Ugh!!

Karate

I have wanted to sign my nephews up for karate since, like, 2012. Finally! I signed them this week and they–we–started last night. It is karate for the whole family so me and my husband got to participate. It was fun but it was a little bit of a work out for someone as out of shape as me. It was a bit too hot yesterday–I’ll have to remember to dress lighter and bring lots of water for everyone. I am glad the boys got out and did something other than playing video games. I wasn’t sure if they would like karate–they did have some trouble paying attention to the instructors–but they all said they liked it, even loved it. I think my husband enjoyed it too. Now if only I could find a swim program or class for the whole family.
