Down in the dumps

It’s probably just post-Tuscany blues and pre-having-to-get-everything-ready-to-move-to-Seattle hysteria, but I’m feeling a bit meh at the moment.

Like there’s a huge brick wall up ahead of me. I’ve been pretty much running on adrenaline since the beginning of November, and there’s always been something to focus on next – Christmas, Valentines Day, Mothers Day etc.

But now summer seems finally to be here and people have got better things to do than online shopping, so I’m expecting orders to tail off quite a bit.

I know I should be taking this opportunity to make all the improvements to the website that I haven’t had time to make, buy in lots of gorgeous things for Christmas, sort out all my admin, work on my search engine optimisation etc. but I just don’t seem to have the inspiration or motivation.

I want something EXCITING to happen, or failing that, just to go and lie under a tree in the park with a trashy novel and forget about search engine optimisation altogether.

I want my groove back.

    Aw honey!
    I reckon maybe you need to have a day with a trashy novel and some treats, just to get it out of your system, and then the wonder of guilt might kick in and get you optimising etc. Or maybe you’ll just decide that the tree and the novel are too tempting and stay there!
    It’s times like this that you need some ridiculously handsome fellow to flirt with you. Not suggesting you have an affair!… but it’s nice when someone like that makes your tummy churn a bit, gives such a boost.
    Lord knows when that last happened to me though. Aactually, it wa 4 years ago, not that I’m counting :0)
    Hope you feel good soon xxx

    You’re right. That’s EXACTLY what I need. I haven’t flirted with a ridiculously handsome man for ages.
    Unfortunately, ridiculously handsome men just run screaming in the opposite direction at the moment, as I approach with my snotty baby and my snotty clothes. Definite downside of motherhood.
