Here we are again, it’s Monday, the sun is shining, every reason to feel optimistic…
But I don’t. Somehow, I fell off the enthusiasm wagon over the weekend. Not sure why, for there didn’t seem to be a reason. Maybe I just needed to chill out for a bit.
Trouble is, today, I can’t seem to find that bloody wagon!
I have been feeling a little uneasy lately, but nothing I could put my finger on. Just enough to make my thoughts wander. I need to be more organised, have more work scheduled, already written, that sort of thing. This simply must happen if we want to move on, or up in the writing world.
Marketing has been a bit of a non-entity this year, and for the life of me, I cannot remember when it stopped being at the top of our must-do list! These days there are so many things going on, it has become difficult to string several thoughts together in order to trigger the creative process.
Apart from the garden, which does see me occasionally. More duty than inspirational though, despite managing to grow our first tomatoes, as they must be watered. But for those few minutes, as I wander around spraying water, something magical happens and I come back inside in a much better mood.
Now the weather is getting warmer, I think I will be working/writing outside. I’m not sure if this is where the enthusiasm wagon is parked, but it’s definitely not in my office!

I hear you Jaye. I know well of the enthusiasm wagon. I also don’t have the marketing energy. Yes, life is getting to many of us, and especially those ‘I just can’t put my finger on it’ moments. I’ve stopped beating myself up over it. One day at a time is my mantra. If I can’t get there, I will eventually. ❤
