Daily goals, motivation and check in

I woke up tired and flat and unmotivated. There was a party neaby overnight so sleep was elusive.

So goal no. 1 is getting an early night. Aiming at bed by 8 with a book or 2.

Working backwards, goal no. 2 is a healthy dinner - mushroom stroganoff pasta.

Goal 3 is get some mulch.

Goal 4 is vacuum the car because it's feral!

How are you faring on the motivation front @Mazarita @Teej @Former-Member @Appleblossom @Former-Member @Maggie?

@frog Needing motivation to motivate. All the best with your goals.

@Former-Member Looking forward to the portrait....it might be there already. Goal 1. Check other thread.

@Teej@Mazarita@AppleblossomHi.

Good morning, @frog, @Maggie and everyone, had another very late night/early morning here, with only a few hours sleep in a chair. Main thing I want to do today is recover from that first of all. Aside from that:

• breakfast and meds
• get washed and dressed
• make bed
• put away washed and folded clothes
• tidy kitchen and do dishes
• ring mum in the afternoon
• chillax
• video making

That's being fairly ambitious, given how slow and weird I am feeling this morning.

Best to all here for any goals and motivation found today. ox

I have written many poems and my goal is going well.

@Former-Member wondered if you know of this thread. Just a thought.

Hi everyone, just wondering what everyone does on the weekend especially this one as its the Bank holiday on Monday.

I do groups during the week that helps but find it hard to be motivated on weekends

Hi @saturnzoon, I too have trouble working out what to do with myself on the weekends. Week days have more in them, and more getting out of the flat. Today has been an indoors day and is likely to stay that way. I do some creative activities on the computer, so I've been doing that. Aside from that, I've really only achieved the basics off my list for today that I posted earlier:

• breakfast and meds
• dressed
• bed made
• ring mum
• chillax
• video making

My weekend days are often like this and it can be hard to find motivation to fill them. Don't really have many answers, aside from making lists of things to do, and trying to find ways to entertain ourselves, such as creative activities. Do you have any interests to occupy yourself with on weekends? Mainly just wanted to say I have the same problem really. Would be interested to hear how others feel about weekends, and how they fill their time.

way to go @Mazarita

Hello @Teej, @saturnzoon, @Maggie, @Former-Member

• made the bed
• food shopping for us and my mum
• uncle`s 80th birthday lunch
• now TV

Hi @Shaz51, we posted almost at the same time. Sounds like a productive and fairly relaxing day? Hope your health is treating you kindly today. Did you enjoy the 80th birthday?

I too have trouble working out what to do with myself on the weekends tooo @saturnzoon, as I do general house cleaning for other people and we mows lawns during the week , so when the weekend comes -- we dont want to do anything and we have our house to clean and the lawn to mow

and with My husband having bipolar 11 makes it hard
