Motivation It Comes and It Goes

Now there's an excuse for ya.

I have a list of things I ought/should/must do as long as my arm.  Or so it seems.  I am good, too, at making lists.  Writing it down seems to help.  (Writing this blog is always on this list...you see how successful I am sometimes on doing that!).  Yet my motivation comes and goes something like the tide or the sun and the moon.  It rises up, gets your attention, and then fades into the background.  Bottom line, sometimes I just don't feel like it.   It can be anything I'm supposed/expected/want to do.  That last one, "want", is a killer.  If I want to do it, who I resist doing it so?

Today is a blank slate.  Mine to schedule.  Dogs have gone to the spa and the kitty is in her office doing whatever it is she does during the day.  She left me a tiny little mousie in the den.  Her day's work is done I guess.  So what will I do with this day?  Darned if I know.  I have a list.  Things to do.  I don't feel like doing any of them.  But going back to bed is not an option.  That would be almost a crime against nature.  So at least I am writing this blog.   Motivation.  It comes and it goes.  For now, it seems to have come to visit for a while.  

Look out life, here I come....and there I go.  And there you have it.
