I'm struggling today

I usually name change on this board but can't even be bothered to do that today. I have severe lack of motivation this morning, haven't even got dressed yet. I keep having to nag at the DC.

Can someone tell me how on earth you get motivated when feeling shit really tired/unwell?

Tbh, some days I don't (get going, I mean). But usually force of habit + getting out of the house to do something interesting helps me, but I am particularly prone to cabin fever.

Is there something pleasant you can do with the kids? Go for a walk, go for lunch, visit their friends? Are they old enough to do these things on their own? Having a couple hours to yourself might do the trick too.

Generally, find something to look forward to if you can, that helps you to jeep plodding on.

Thanks for replying, I think I will just have to push myself to do something,(not even dressed yet)Blush.

If I can, I think I will try and get the DC doing some pictures or a card (Valentines related).

Just feeling fed up/tired this morning and finding it all hard work.
