August goals

I was not able to give myself the kick up the ass that I needed. It did not help that I got Bell's Palsy and then not long ago I got Shingles.

I have started learning Japanese though and while I listen to the lessons I have been getting housework.

I need to get into a routine that when the wee ones are away at nursery in the morning I do more than just sit on the computer.

I have said this before but I really need to set myself a time table out.

I also need to write out a list of the things that I would like to do so I can get them more organized.

Operation remotivate

Over the last week or two I have realized that I have let myself become unmotivated and lazy. Spending too much time on the computer and not getting anything done. My home is becoming a mess again, the clutter is still there and the shed that I had set myself for getting cleared by the time that my parents come up in September has not had any work done on it all.

This has to change. Today was when I really realized just how little I have done over the last few weeks. The school holiday is nearly over and I have done nothing. I have not only not taken the wee ones to the beach but I have not even taken them around the wood for a walk. I have done nothing at all with them. I know we have not had good weather but I could have done something with them. I will have to make it up to them during the weekends.

I do think that going back to school will be good for me as it will give me the motivation that I need. I think I have found that unless I am pushed I am happy to procrastinate. I need to work on that. I feel bad that I have done so little over the last month and a half. I know I needed a rest but I took it too far. I also need to do a better job next summer. I cannot let this summer be repeated.

Tomorrow I am going to get some work done on the shed.
