on not wanting to get dressed.


Since the third of January, when the hoopla of the holidays officially ceased, I've been struggling with the simple act of getting dressed in the morning.  I'd prefer to stay in my pajamas and mope (yes--mope) about the house most of the day.  Unfortunately, or rather fortunately I should say, the six and three year olds don't really allow for this kind of self indulgence (or mild depression.)  I think Sparky might take issue with it too, should he arrive home after a long kick-ass day at work to find me in my flannels eating a pint of Ben and Jerry's Cherry Garcia in bed while watching netflixed episodes of the Gilmore Girls.  (Oh, that entire scenario sounds divine.)

Am I the only one that ever feels this way?

    I feel that way (ever since we came back) as well.

    Last night, I rambled on (and on) to Ryan about it (poor guy)... and did a horrible job articulating these feelings of restlessness, blah,... all while looking at his "WTF??" facial expression (not in a mean way- just him trying to understand something that I'm not even able to fully express). And it has definitely not helped in the "productivity" department... nor the "getting dressed" one.

    Hope it passes soon. For both of us :).

    Nope. I totally know what you mean. I have absolutely NO drive to wear anything beyond the minimum of what is appropriate. I figure it's just the January doldrums and hopefully I'll snap out of it soon. Hopefully?

    I just got up. Sigh. It's so tempting to stay in a warm bed, especially when you have your laptop to accompany you.

    I know exactly what you mean! Sometimes my pajamas are just so comfy and so easy! I have a sick kid right now, so we both got to lay around in our pjs all day. It was rather amazing.
