I am being tested, I know it.
I'm struggling to find motivation, there are things that need to be done around my house and I just can't find the motivation to do them... I'm feeling overwhelmed.
The weather today is not helping:
Then comes the guilt for putting things off and procrastinating, if only I could take a break, but wait... by putting off some tasks haven't I already 'taken a break'? Funny, it doesn't feel that way... more guilt.
My to-do lists are getting longer and time is getting shorter... so many things to-do... seriously. The thing is, these "to-do's" aren't just the standard commitments for business, school, girl scouts, & family, it's also 'extra curriculurs' that I want to do for the holidays with my kids, crafts and decorating, etc. I know I need to make these a priority.
On top of my lists are things out of my control... mainly stuff to do with my house. It seems the closer we get to finishing up on repairs from the fire, the more that happens non-fire related. For example: The other night while the girls were in the shower I noticed some water dripping behind the faucet. Now there is a water spot on my living room ceiling, which we just painted. Why is it that in the 5 years we have lived in this house, that has never happened till now? Really.
I need to remember this Pin from my Just Sayin' Board:
And now I need to get back to do-ing.
How do you stay motivated when you are feeling overwhelmed?

I think the more I have to do, the less I feel like doing. Just the way it always goes :/
