Strangely unmotivated

A few weeks ago, I complained about Doug monopolizing the computers in our home. Now that he's moved on from Linux and we've turned our bathroom completely upside down, I am strangely unmotivated to write. I finally have access to the computer again, I have a list of blogs I'd like to write, and somehow, I'm not writing them.

Since when did Daniel become a full-contact sport?
Love in the in-law sense of the word
Fear (specifically about my mom's upcoming surgery)
Respect (specifically about those who KNOW what they want out of life)

There are others, but those are the blogs that are plaguing me. I keep a note running in my cell phone of blogs I need to get around to. I've even starting writing one or two of the blogs listed above several times. I get a line or two into them and decide I don't like the direction they're taking. I save the title; delete the blog.

I think this was the whole point of the Not Me! Monday and the PSF blogs, but somehow, the point was lost on me (which is strange, because I'm the one who made the point. . . ). The point was to keep me on a blogging schedule. Not just to post something, but to find time in my life to write. Somehow, I've managed to find a million other things to fill my time with. Perhaps when that list does not include drywall repair, tiling, and plumbing, I'll find more time to write.

Until then, that is all. Just know that I have thoughts in my head I'd love to "put on paper," I just can't seem to get going.
