Yes, I totally relate...just had an arguement with DH last night and those blues started...I am at work and two people are out, and i am supposed to pick up the slack, but I am not motivated at all...so yeah, I understand ....

Yep, both of my superiors are out today. I really want to leave early. I actually might do that.

Maybe, I'm getting a headache and need to go home around, I don't know 3 ish....

Lol! That would be awesome...I wish I could too!!! No such luck though!!! I have decided that I am NOT doing any extra, what I get done is what I get done!!!! LOL! Not to change the subject or being obnoxious, but I value your opinion and wonder if you could check out my post in getting pregnant...if so, thanks a ton!!!
Anyway...I hope you go home early!!! How was your christmas though, besides getting the blues! hehe!

I haven't actually gotten anything accomplished at all. I've been on the internent most of the moringing. I have a lot to do too. This is the last week of the month and its short...so I'll be panicing tomorrow.

I'm pretty sure I'm going to go home early. I don't know why I've been so sad the last few days...


I'm flattered that you value my opinion. I responded to your post and I pm'ed you.

I always seem to feel a little bit of let-down the day after Xmas, when I think about things going back to normal after the new year. Sometimes it's overwhelming. I'm going to try to come up with some inspiring new year's resolutions so I will have something to get me motivated.

That is actually a really good idea! I've been discussing Weight Watchers with B. and I think it will help to have that to look forward to. I'm a very goal-oriented person. So it is helpful to have a 'plan' even if nothing comes of it.

Actually I think that is the major thing. I've been working so hard toward Christmas and making everything 'perfect' and now...nothing.

I really know exactly how you feel. I am a bit melancholy today myself. I am getting better about this, though. A long time ago I was seeing a counselor and I confided that sometimes I work so hard toward a goal, or build something up so much in my mind that by the time the event actually arrives I have completely destroyed my ability to even enjoy myself-to be present in the moment. I have gotten a lot better about this, though and am learning to be more at peace with the time at hand, and not always maniacally planning ahead for everything.

Besides the WW, what other goals do you have for the new year?

Here are a few of mine:

Run at LEAST 4 days a week.
Yoga AT LEAST 3 days a week
Train for a half marathon which comes in May
Develop a better daily structure in my life
Yell less
Smile more
Breathe deeply before speaking

That sounds like me to a tee! I'm scared of ppd because of this. Very scared.

I don't have many goals for next year. But here is the list I do have:

Do every thing in my power to get that darn bfp.
Support DH more.
Put less pressure on myself, I can't save the world.

That is pretty much it for now. I'm sure I'll add a lot to it. I can always find something I'm doing wrong.

You two are so inspiring...lol, I know that sounds cheesy...my only goal is to be the good housekeeper I know I am. (I am a very good cleaner, but i don't have the motivation to keep the house clean-dh does most of it) Bless him!
I am so glad you two are goal-oriented and you both sound like you have excellent goals and have a good chance of keeping those goals! Good luck to both of you!!

I get holiday blues. Right now i am feeling sad cause it's all ended

You need an extra cup of cheer, m'dear!

*gets pitcher out and starts pouring*

Here, this one has rum in it!

welcome to my world

the past few weeks i slip into sadness really easy

I have learned how neat it is to view christmas from a kids point of view again. It was so fun to watch their excitement!
