I'm looking for my mojo.
I really tried all weekend, but it seems I was content to mostly sit around and spend time with Handsome. I had no energy nor interest in doing anything else.
It's not like I had nothing else to do. Laundry. Cleaning. Weeding. Gardening. Baking. Of course, I have books to read, and needlework I could be starting. None of those held a bit of interest for me over the weekend.
This week is going to be fun. Work tomorrow; dinner with classmates on Wednesday; and preparing for Handsome's brother to arrive on the weekend. So what do you do when you've misplaced your mojo?
Today, I'm going to "fake it until I make it". I'm going to act like my mojo is sitting on my shoulder, pushing me to get my butt in gear. "Do something. Anything. You can do it, Dee."
It's ok to take a break.
ReplyDeleteYou were most likely stressed about Handsome.
Maybe your body needs a rest for awhile.
I'm sure your Mojo will come back soon.
Take care.

Dear Marilyn:
DeleteThank you, my friend. Sometimes we need to get permission. I appreciate that you offered it. I'll see how I feel and proceed accordingly.

Thanks, once again, for the ear worm! Don't be too hard on yourself over not feeling motivated because after all, you've been dealing with a lot the past while. Rest and recuperation aren't only for the physical body but the mind too. Take care of you.
ReplyDeleteIt must be something in the air running down from Wisconsin sin to Texas. I have successfully done worthwhile today.
ReplyDeleteSeems my "get up and go" "got up and went"! I actually feel better knowing it's not just me.

I meant to say I have successfully done nothing worthwhile today.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I thought. hee hee

Yes, I have seen her!! Mojo is curled up in a corner taking a much needed rest! Fear not, she will return with much gusto once she is recharged and feels a little less burdened by the concerns she has been carrying so close to her heart.❤️ Sounds like a mostly fun week ahead; enjoy each day, one at a time!
ReplyDeleteDear Lois:
DeleteI love how you characterize my mojo. "Curled up in a corner"...with the dust bunnies. They've been allowed free range, too! I'm not fretting it much. I know I'll get an energy boost soon. Thank you so much.

Ms. Mojo will be back in due time.
ReplyDeleteIt is just a sign that what you are doing now is the right thing.
Sounds like you have a wonderful week ahead.

Dear Shirley:
DeleteSeems my "creative imperative" isn't so imperative right now. I'm going to mostly go with it. I feel like I need to. I'm looking forward to this week, for sure! Fun times.
xoxo

hmmmm - I know I made a comment on this post thanking you for the ear worm but I guess it must have gone out to play with your mojo. Ah well, it's the thought that counts, right?
