The Winter Rut

There is a saying I've never liked.

Stuck in a rut.

But that's where I am. It's why I haven't felt like blogging lately. If I wrote you a 'day in the life of Venassa' post, you could copy and paste it for almost every day of the week. The 'sleep, eat, work, watch tv, go online' routine repeated, would probably scare and bore people.

It's not that I'm completely unhappy with it, it's just that I feel I'm wasting my life.

All the things I enjoy, I just can't bring myself to do them. Like go for walks, take pictures, scrapbook, go to the gym. It's not usually because I lack the energy, it's because I lack the enthusiasm.

The sad part is, I get like this every year. Winter causes my blah-ness.

In the summer I cannot wait to get outside on each nice day. I love walking, taking pictures, going to the beach, even just sitting outside. I even enjoy sitting around home more when I can do it with all the windows open. It's hard to even express how much I look forward to summer all winter, and how much I love it the whole time it's here.

But for now, I just need to force out some motivation. To get up and do something different every once in awhile. To not let the entire winter pass by without me doing a thing. I need to get out of this rut. Suggestions are welcome. 

Starting tomorrow, of course. Because now it's time for work.
