Not in the Mood

This morning when Zoe had her morning B.M. (boy, that's a great opening line, isn't it?) I thought to myself, "I am really not in the mood for poop right now!" Come to think of it, I don't think I'm ever in the mood for poop, but it got me thinking about other things that I'm not in the mood for right now:

I'm not in the mood for gardening. Usually by March I have my garden all planned out for the year including diagrams, shopping lists, planting dates, and a budget. Not this time. Don't make me do it!

FOR.THE.LOVE! Don't make me do it!

I'm not in the mood for eating healthy. I can only eat healthy steadily for 2.5 weeks. I just entered week 3 with an abundance of Girl Scout cookies. I can't look a vegetable in the eye or I'll start crying.

 

(Maybe this is causing my garden aversion?)

I'm not in the mood for Scouting. Part of my responsibility as the primary president in my ward is to oversee the Cub Scouts and the 11-year-old Boy Scouts. I am trying so hard to LOVE Scouting and to learn everything I need to know to be an effective Scouts leader. I'm reading handbooks and going to trainings and looking at web sites.

But I am not feeling the love.

Nope. Definitely not feeling the love.

I am not in the mood for soup. Soup is a touchy thing for me. There are a lot of soup recipes that I enjoy, but at the same time, I get sick of soup really quickly. I should probably only have soup three times a year. In fact, I have intentionally limited soup in my meal planning, but right now there is a new corn chowder recipe that is plaguing my meal plan. I keep bumping it to the next week, then the next, then the next. Why can't I just make the dang soup before it's a hundred degrees outside?

Oh, probably because I'm not in the mood for soup.

But I can't just eliminate it from the meal plan because I already bought the dang ingredients for it!

I'm not in the mood for cleaning. But I never have been.

Anything you're not in the mood for lately?
