Slump

I haven't felt motivated to do anything lately.

It's an effort to get myself outside - even though the weather is beautiful, the daffodils are blooming, and the air smells like spring.

I need to get myself out of this slump. There is tons to do - the garden needs work, the house needs cleaning. 

Objectively, life on the small-scale is pretty good at the moment. I just need to force myself to enjoy it. 

Objectively, life on the bigger scale is a mess: Ukraine, Israel, US politics, upcoming presidential elections, ever-increasing antisemitism... Maybe it's not all that surprising I am having a hard time convincing myself that everything is peachy and let's smell the roses.

Or maybe I just need a kick-in-the-butt to gain the momentum needed to start DOING stuff.

  1. You don't know me, but I do come by your blog and oh, I feel this right now. I'm in a slump and desperately trying to break out of it. The energy drain and the small and big life challenges are real. Take care of yourself - you can only do what you can do.

      So sorry to hear you are in a slump too. Hope we both can get out of it soon...
