After almost two years of projects
and schedules and payments and assignments and organization and chaos I’ve hit
the wall.
The projects are still on the list
with numbers and dates and ideas, but I’ve lost my motivation. With all the
materials at hand and the time and weather conditions to do the next item on
the list, I’ve lost the will to move on.
It is not that the next projects
are difficult or more time consuming, but they rely on ME to do them and I’ve
not found the energy to continue.
There are no distractions or
reasons for the fault of reaching the next goal; it is a lack of interest.
Perhaps I don’t want to finish
what I’ve started? Perhaps I’m just lazy. Perhaps I’m busy to finish this
project, though it is all I have to do? Perhaps I need a kick-start in the
trousers?
Whatever the reason is, I’ve
stopped. I’ve grown lethargic, much too familiar with the surroundings and the
overwhelming sense that there is no end to this.
Perhaps it is time to take a
break? Take a vacation? Get a new location for a period of time to refresh and
revive the spirit?
I’ve wandered before but either at
arms length or in the company of a support group or to remember a shared
occasion, but now it may be time to make the break.
Maybe a few days in another place
far away with new topics and different diet and a strange bed to sleep creating
new dreams? Shake it off and rub some dirt in it!
Maybe spending almost the same
amount of time to travel to a different continent will refresh and energize?
Maybe a conversation with others than trees and small furry critters will bring
back the drive?
Like washing your face with cold
water in the morning then looking in the mirror to attack the day, a time away
may be needed to rejuvenate?
Then returning to the spider
webbed dusty lot called “home” will refocus the notes on the calendar of life.
Perhaps it is too overwhelming and
I need to take another direction? But then what?
We’ll see.

Have a weekend work party. I am a good painter.
I think you should get a remodeler in there to finish it over the summer. It'll take the burden off of you and you'll still get the job done...but faster! And think of the wild party afterward!
And you can get the man cave remodeled, too...
