Motivation: Such an Aggravation

I have no motivation.  It's a problem.

Sometimes, all is good and the house is put together, the baby's happy and dressed, I'm caught up on school and I look presentable.  Actually, for awhile there, this was the norm.  I was cooking dinner every night and even baking!

Then, there are days like today.

The baby never got dressed.  I got her out of her pajamas, but somehow she never quite made it into clothes.  She just hung out in a diaper all day.  She didn't seem to mind.

While she never went hungry today, I got lazy and didn't give her any solids at lunch, just formula.

I have a mountain of homework due on Sunday, but I can't bring myself to start.

I've had a document open on my desktop for an entire week, where I started revising my resume.  I haven't touched it in days.

The kitchens a mess.

And while I did cook dinner tonight, I went the easy route and just made spaghetti.  Even though I told Jaymes that I would make shredded beef, I didn't. 

In fact, I've put off making shredded beef for so many days now that I'm worried the meat has gone bad.

I haven't showered in 3 days.  That's embarrassing.  But, to be honest, I haven't left the house in longer than that.

Jaymes is trying hard to convince me to go see the new Harry Potter movie tomorrow. I would love to go! I haven't missed an opening day of a Harry Potter movie ever. But, I'd have to go by myself. Jaymes would have to stay home with Aurora. I don't know if I want to go to a movie alone. I wonder if it will even be fun...

I was so proud of little girl today!  She actually ate one of her sweet potato puffs!  I've been giving them to her for about a month now and whenever they make it into her mouth she makes a horrible face and spits them out.  But, tonight she popped one in there and mushed it up like a champ!



Aurora is getting so good at standing that Jaymes and I decided the time had come to move her mattress down.  Her crib doesn't look like a little baby's bed anymore.  But, seeing her peering over the rails is absolutely adorable!!



Jaymes had an inventive solution to Aurora's constant exploration.
