A Lack of Motivation?

Have you ever really needed to get some things done, I mean really needed to do them, but can't seem to drag your butt off of the couch? I have no idea what is going on, but the past few days have been beyond uneventful for me. Is it because I have nothing to do... hell no! We NEED to get this house on the market, like yesterday, and I have so much to do before it goes up. Plus, the sooner it goes up, the sooner we can sell it (hopefully). But for whatever reason, I have been sitting on the couch, messing around on the internet, and generally, veging.

To DO List for the House:

-Paint the trim in Bedroom 1 one more time

-Move everything from bedroom 1 to bedroom 2

-Primer and paint bedroom 2

-remove carpet and carpet pad from bedroom 2

-Finish installing trim in house

-Redo upstairs bathroom

-Put finishing touches on Bathroom downstairs (paint trim)

-Stain outside deck

-Sod Front Yard

-Genreal cleaning of house

-Packing

-Organize storage room to put moving boxes

-Have Carpet installed in 2 upstairs bedrooms

-Install new light fixtures throughout the house

So for those of you who are wondering why I am not showing my excitement at moving back home... that To DO list is why. I feel like if we don't get these things done soon, my husband's physical absence from my everyday life will be my own fault (good old Catholic Guilt). That's not too much pressure, is it? And the funny thing is, when I actually get up and move my butt, I feel good about myself, I feel physically good, and I (of course) am accomplishing the things on my list. I think the really frustrating part of all of this is my lack of skill in the things that must be done. How can I help to get things on track when I have to wait for John's help, even on the things that I think I can do myself (like paint the deck). Maybe this is just my needyness conflicting with my need to control... Man I am a little weird!

So if I am short with you, please allow me to apologize, and know that it is most likely me and not you. I have been a little rude to people lately...I am going to blame it on the stress.

Thanks for understanding, and thanks for reading my posts. It is always cool to see that people have read or commented on my thoughts and concerns. You guys are great friends!
