Help finding motivation

DH has taken the kids away for half term. It's the first time I've had a break since this time last year. However he's taken them away because we have a lot to do prepping for the sale of our house. DIY, decluttering, decorating, generally tidying and sorting etc, plus a bit of packing stuff into boxes that we don't use in readiness. I'm meant to be getting shiz DONE!! Have a very very long to do list, which I think might perhaps be bringing out the procrastinator in me. Feels a bit overwhelming.

They left yesterday and I swear all the motivation has just vacated. I gave myself yesterday to be lazy and today I am meant to be starting as I have work tomorrow so really need to use the weekends and evenings. Yet here I am listening to Love Songs and scrolling through Mumsnet. It feels so delectably slothly. It's also a beautiful day so quite fancy going out for a walk.

I put the radio on hoping the tunes would get me going but I'm still sat here with a coffee 😂

Oh dear!
