I'm feeling totally unproductive.

My apartment is a mess and I have no real motivation to clean.

I have three scrolls to work on for Ice Dragon. I only have vague ideas for the illumination. No clue yet what I'm going to have as wording.

I'm only on the last part of row 12 of 40 for The Huntress's 12th night gift. I should be almost done by now.

I realize I lost a week in an already short month but I feel disappointed in myself for not being further along with things.

Last night I fully intended to curl up in front of the TV in my bedroom and work on the Huntress's gift. But instead I found myself just sitting and watching and zoning rather than actually doing.

Totally unmotivated to do anything.

Tonight I HAVE to rinse and pack feast gear. Find and pack garb. Print directions and pack the car for the event tomorrow. Need to also coordinate with the Boogie as to when she wants to leave for the event.

At the event, my current plan is to find a corner of the feast hall, park myself there and be available for socializing while I sit and work on the Huntress's gift. I have never been able to work on scrolls at events unless I'm sequestered off in a royalty room or scribal room. And that would defeat the point of going to be social. I will from time to time wander over to the vigil and stuff.

I'm just glad I didn't agree to teach anything this year. Hopefully while I'm in the process of packing my place and moving I can find all my handouts from all the classes I've taught in the past.

Can I just say I hate February

Mord says that the Scandinavians have a word for February- BLOTT. That about sums it up, I think.

February in general makes me want to hide in the upstairs back room with the cat asleep on top of the bookshelf next to my shoulder, watch Law & Order Criminal Intent until my brain turns to mush, and knit/cross-stitch until my hands bleed. No phone, no speaking to husband, no interaction with the Real World of any kind, until the sun comes out again.

I say we all need a mundane knitting/crocheting weekend together, watching classic movies or something.

You're allowed to be out of it for a while. You've been through a horrible trauma and your body and mind both need to heal.
Plus, as patrikia says, it's BLOTT.
DO what you need to heal and take care of yourself.
Who's on vigil???!

You have earned the right to zone a bit. Please don't beat yourself up for not "getting more done".
