Boy, winter is getting to me. It is difficult to raise spirits that sort of just downward spiral for no apparent reason. Things are good: DH has a job, the kids are healthy and reasonably happy (though being cooped up in the house has them grating on one another's nerves more than usual), blogger friend is making progress after massive coma, another blogger friend is apparently winning her battle against anorexia and has hopes for her marriage, my own brother is recovering from another failed relationship with the outlook that he *will* find love eventually, my bff is much less needy and I actually enjoy talking to her (though it only needs to be once or twice a week - not the daily dump sessions).
I'm still finding no motivation to get stuff done. I was really good a bit ago and now all of the sudden I'm back to doing what needs to be done the day before or the day of. I'm looking forward to two weeks when my girls' basketball experience winds down (this has added four practices and a minimum of two, average three games a week). It's too cold to go out after dark or before 9:00 AM to get to games, and neither girl really seems to enjoy the sport. They are dancers at heart.
Don't really know where this ramble is going. I'm actually going to put on the first episode of the old Poldark, and get under my blanket. Yesterday I watched Hitchcock's "Marnie" while my kids were at school. Am I'm indulging myself in more entertainment, at least there aren't many snacks in the house or I'd be gaining weight!
Another one of those days ...

It's the last leg of winter. It's always hard. We'll get through it. It's just not pleasant.
