I have a horrible case of the post holiday heebie jeebies combined with post holiday exhaustion. The heebie jeebie part is evident in my not being able to find something to do with myself. THere is plenty to do, it just doesn’t “appeal” to me right now. I really don’t want to take down the holiday decorations, it is like admitting defeat. I don’t know why for sure, but I just (to quote my kids) “don’t wanna.” The post holiday exhaustion/antipathy is evident in the fact I have had three perfectly good ass kicking opportunities, and I haven’t taken one of them. I have thought about it, but then said “Eh, not worth it.” Totally not my style, so something is up…My favorite gift of the season scared the crap out of the recipient, and then my other favorite gifts of the season didn’t work and have to be returned. I could quickly go down the “poor me route,” but “eh, not worth it.” My own blog entry is boring the crap out of me.
Where is the excitement??? Tried to get all worked about about Obama’s change of staff, but then I fell asleep. Got on my “soapbox” for about a second today, then got right back off it.
Oh, did perform a miracle today…made the kids perform with the most rudimentary table manners tonight. I have goals. I am working on them 🙂 At this rate, in 10 years, they will know not to speak of puke, poop, or other bodily functions at a dinner table and might even (dare I hope???) use a utensil to actually navigate food into their mouths rather than as a slingshot for food they don’t want to eat.
Any cures for the post – holiday “ickys”?
