abreakfromlife Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I am SO unmotivated and I don't know why. We've had a really busy summer and it feels like I haven't gotten to relax much. I think that has to be part of it. And then I look at everything that needs to be cleaned and organized....and all the books that need to be planned and scheduled, and ugh. I just don't feel like doing it. Usually August is so exciting for planning and looking through all of our books...and I just don't want to do it. ugggg.

Soror Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I'm just now officially planning now but we started 3 weeks ago. We just jumped in, my brain has turned off this pregnancy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abreakfromlife Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 oh that's even better, haha. I know we'll have to start at Labor day, otherwise I'll just put it off forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohdanigirl Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I feel you. I thought I knew what we were doing, but we are moving later next month, and I needed to make lots of changes as a result. We will be on the road (hotel hopping), so I need to downsize our books. I am more than a little frazzled. You can do it, though.

sagira Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 What I do to get motivated is to go online and read the descriptions, the glowing reviews of the curricula that I bought to renew my excitement. If that enthusiasm isn't there, I'm not motivated. I also thumb through the materials. Sending you good vibrations. I know what it is to be in a funk.

Cassy Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 I'm so glad I'm not the only one. I feel more tired and disorganised now than I did at the beginning of the summer. We start back in just under two weeks' time, and at the moment I just can't imagine how I'm going to be ready by then. I am looking forward to getting back into the school routine though. We're just getting towards the end of two weeks' vacation and it's feeling like very hard work, I do like my routine :001_smile:. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenL Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 You are not alone. You can barely see the floor of our school room, and I was supposed to start school the first week of August. However, my FIL became very ill, and we needed to make an emergency trip to see him. Then, I needed to have a small surgical procedure a week after we returned. This week, we had some appointments and we have some obligations later in the week that will interfere with school (they were planned in Feb). So, I was thinking we'd start next week, but I don't have time to finish planning/organizing between now and then. We are definitely starting ON Labor Day so dad can be here to help. Sometimes, life happens... including falling into slumps. It will be okay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
