Mental Lists

You know, sometimes I really hate that I have a brain and that I use it. So I am sitting here, still feeling miserable and all I can think about is taking a hot bath to make myself feel a little better. But then my mind starts to automatically make a mental list of all the things I must do before I allow myself a bath.

• Clean bathroom
• Sweep and mop kitchen floor
• Vacuum
• Clean marker off living room wall, kids room wall, hallway wall, and tile in the bathroom
• Dust
• Fold and put away laundry
• Unload dishwasher

See it never ends. But today I just can't get going. Usually I can find the energy from somewhere to at least check off a couple things, but today its not working. I want to curl up in bed and doze in and out of sleep whenever I feel like it. But no such luck. So perhaps I will go clean my bathroom and feel good that I at least got ONE thing checked off the list. At least I'll have a clean tub to soak in whenever I get the chance for a bath.

And a side note, I really need to get over this crap. Its draining every creative ounce outta me and these posts have sucked as of lately. BOO! I hate being sick!
