From Dictionary.com:
leth·ar·gy: [leth-er-jee]
–noun, plural -gies.
1. the quality or state of being drowsy and dull, listless and unenergetic, or indifferent and lazy; apathetic or sluggish inactivity.
Drowsy and unenergetic — that’s how I’ve felt ever since Christmas. Oh, I’ve gotten things done — a little laundry, the house in some order, next month’s ladies’ ministry newsletter begun. But I had a whole lot more I was going to do. I seem to be spending a lot of time vegging out playing Boggle against the computer. 🙂
We did have a nice Christmas — loving presents, good food, time together. Perhaps the marathon leading up to Christmas is taking its toll.
I’ve often said I don’t work best under pressure, but I do get more done under pressure. I guess having a deadline makes tasks come into focus and makes it easier to sort through what must be done and put aside other activities. With no deadline it’s harder to get in gear. I keep a master list of projects I want to get to and need to get going on a project: starting is the hardest. Some of the things require a trip to another town because I’ve exhausted my resources here (like finding trims for those curtains that have been on my list for months). I’ll probably try to do that when everyone gets back to school and work.
None of the little things I was going to do this week seem as attractive as curling up with a blanket and one of my new books. 🙂

Stray Thoughts 
Oh, my…. I am so glad I am not the only one feeling this way! I have been such a slug for the past day or so it is positively shameful, lol!
At least you wrote a blog post- that puts you way ahead of me!
The new week of my meme is up if you get the chance to stop by… Blessings as you recover from your busy Christmas season.
sounds good to me too
pleased you had a nice Christmas
I always found assignments (at uni) hard until I had got into them
you can play Boggle against the computer????
I use to play a lot of boggle (we use to have the game)
well you know what ill be investigating know dont you 😉
Yes, there is a computer version that has five different variations. I like “Battle Boggle” where each player puts down one letter at a time and makes as many words as they can and another version that you play against yourself where, as you play as many words as you can, those letters disappear and another level of letters comes up. Great fun! I think of it as brain exercise. LOL!
I’ve had this for several years, though — I don’t know if they still make it.
You have described me perfectly, Barbara. I have been doing dishes, laundry, etc. but wasting time playing Snood on the computer. LOL I keep telling myself I’m on vacation this week. :0) I
hope we both get some more energy soon!
Hugs,
Kelli
This is exactly how I feel! I have been such a slug for the last two days. All of the excitement has left me feeling exhausted, I think.
I am one of those people who work well under pressure. I love deadlines… especially very, very close deadlines. LOL.
I wish that we could be lethargic, but for us we’re always on the go and if we’re not going we’re cleaning (small house).
