I am not sure what is wrong with me, but I am sorely lacking the inspiration and inclination to get anything finished. I started last week with a list and lofty aims to knock every single thing off the list, Now a week plus a day later I am left with the same list. It seems that last week I fell into this "start 'er but don't get 'er done" vortex. Now I have all of these projects that I started , but very few are completed. Which leaves me with a single word for my
list for the week.
1. FINISH
Last weeks menu and what really happened;
Monday: Red curried chicken, riced cauliflower, tossed salad
Tuesday:
Wednesday: Spaghetti, tossed salad
Thursday:
Friday:
Saturday:
Sunday: Easter dinner with extended family (
Night meal: Pulled smoked pork sandwiches (frozen about a month ago) pickles, slaw.
Suggested menu for the week
Meal 1: Paleo chicken "fingers", romaine/mandarin orange salad, squash, asparagus
Meal 2: Paleo stuffed bell peppers, salad, baked sweet potatoes
Meal 3: Crock pot chicken in spicy mustard sauce, broccoli, waldorf salad
Meal 4: Grilled chicken, grilled onions, sauteed mushrooms, tomato and cuke salad, green beans
Meal 5: Steak, sweet potato oven"fries", tossed salad, brussels sprouts
Meal 6: Gathering the fragments (leftovers) slaw or salad
Meal 7: Eat out
Now, off the computer and on to doing (which is going to be hard because I started a book last night and really do want to finish it today)
Boy, can I relate to good intentions with not always good follow through. However, I do do better with a list than without. And a timer, helps a lot to get me started.
ReplyDeleteI work well with a list usually, but I am really struggling right now. I start one thing then begin another and finish none. I need some intense focus and I am just not finding it.
ReplyDeleteOther things in your life may be using up some of your energy and ability to focus on a list right now. I know that serious concerns certainly make it harder for me to get done what I want.
DeleteI've been the same way lately. I'm blaming it on all of the nice weather we've had lately. My daughter suggested that I start making a list to stay on top of things. Sounds like a good idea!
ReplyDeleteThe list for me only works so far. I am having serious issues finishing anything.
DeleteI like the picture, I may need to make a crafty sign out of it. Hmmm, maybe I should poke around on Pinterest for a while instead of doing chores. Yes, this is a better idea. Thank you for suggesting it.
ReplyDeleteGood luck and if you find the secret to motivation, let me know.
When I find the secret to motivation I will share it with you and then I'm going to sell the solution and become a gozillionaire
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment on my blog. Looks like we posted about a similar problem...the need for inspiration and motivation. Must be something going around.
ReplyDeleteI think it's spring.
