Motivation…complete lack of motivation

Apparently winter is not going to kill off the stink bugs

Another snow day.  And the big deal doesn’t hit until tonight.  Oh, I don’t mind.  I still live for snow days, even though I have given all my exams except for period seven.  If we had gone in today, I could call it a wrap on first semester.  Alas, that is still hanging over my head as my brain moves forward into second semester.

Well, my brain is sort of moving ahead.  My body is slower than molasses in January.  I have all these things that I’ve been waiting for time to do them.  Is that even a sentence?  Here are things that my brain is pondering doing:

STUFF I OUGHTA DO:

organize my closet (I’m starting to lose shoes when they are in the closet)

organize my office (I did about 25% one snow day, but even that has now been undone)

organize the kitchen cupboards so Shelley’s stuff will fit in there

declutter the pantry and figure out where all the bee/honey stuff should really go

get my lessons planned for French I  and II for next week

STUFF I COULD DO WITH THE EXTRA TIME:

make more activities for the SmartBoard at school

watch Letters to Juliette to get psyched for the Europe Info meeting next week (and so I can pass the movie on to Linda B)

read (I bought a bunch of French books last week–good francophone lit that I ‘ve been wanting to get into and then share with the French IV/V class)

call people

write notes to people

bake something

WHAT I’VE DONE SO FAR:

yap with Julie on the phone

take pictures of a stink bug

putz around on the computer

WHAT I PROBABLY WILL END UP DOING:

have tea with Shelley and eat almond macaroons from Graul’s

play board games and watch Toy Story I, II and /or III with Harper

Notice that nowhere on my list is napping.  I’ve done so much napping that I think I must certainly be caught up.  However, I’m pretty sure that if I plop somewhere to read today, I’ll be out like a light.

Not that I’m complaining.

  1. If you check Shelley’s Facebook picture, you’ll see what else we got done. Who knew Kristin’s room would look so good with a leopard theme?
    I also tried (unsuccessfully) to unclog the vacuum cleaner. Apparently Hershey lives on in there, along with a plastic bag that someone sucked up in it. But I need the Popster to dismantle the whole thing. And alas, he is busy being an IBM-er at the moment.
