I can't get motivated to do anything at the moment, despite the weather becoming milder and the days becoming a bit longer. I'd promised myself to get my house spring cleaned this month and have only managed one room so far. <BR/><BR/>That old book is fascinating. I looked at the shorthand notes for ages and am shocked to find that I can't read any of it - I used to take dictation at 120 wpm and I seem to have completely forgotten the system. That is really scary!Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00144097263060047523noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4093613479180664654.post-83038094226592798682009-02-18T09:46:00.000+01:002009-02-18T09:46:00.000+01:00Today I will mostly be staring aimlessly out of wi...Today I will mostly be staring aimlessly out of windows and drinking tea...aren't half terms BRILLIANT! x;0)mimilove foreverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02193236065965161452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4093613479180664654.post-12418832504019500082009-02-18T09:00:00.000+01:002009-02-18T09:00:00.000+01:00Great find Viv! quite a special atmosphere in the ...Great find Viv! quite a special atmosphere in the photos.

As to your feeling of inertia - why oh why does it take us so unawares when we least want and need it? I think it might be called the February Blues: as the days begin to lengthen and we hope the worst of the winter weather is past, do we relax? Is it the body and mind telling is to 'take a rest'? I only manage to complete something if I have a deadline looming, and not always then!<BR/><BR/>I loved your CPS article - it was how I found your blog.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4093613479180664654.post-8816520054331361862009-02-17T19:12:00.000+01:002009-02-17T19:12:00.000+01:00I feel exactly the same...another sleep in and an ...I feel exactly the same...another sleep in and an afternoon snooze..I feel frustrated as I have so much to do....I hope you will be feeling better soon....its awful feeling like this on holiday...I have just been to Bombay stores....an amazing Indian shop full of all sorts of treasures from baubles and angles to traditional dress and gem encrusted shos which turn up at the end...as you can imagine polly was spoilt rotten with pashminas and jewelled and glittery jewellry boxes and mirrors...Mummy was a god girl and bought nothing....A time to dancehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11937288812854037401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4093613479180664654.post-88994847823040369852009-02-17T18:40:00.000+01:002009-02-17T18:40:00.000+01:00Isn't this blogging lark great?

I think the time of year has a great deal to do with fatigue - not much sunlight, still chilly. I think our ancestors went to bed not long after sundown and got up at dawn at this time of year - imagine the delicious hours of sleep! I think the longer days will help.
