Good morning from this side of the planet . It's 9 AM here and I have been mylotting for a while now. Well, early morning mylotting on a weekday is not for me as I am always in morning rush to leave for the work. But no work today for me. The student for the session is absent and I have other two meetings cancelled for today. It's been pushed to next Tuesday. So, next Tuesday would be a long working day. Anyway I stay at home on this gloomy cloudy day. It's drizzling outside and the wet cold weather is making me lazy. I have been awake since 5 in the morning. My husband left for his business trip at that time. He will be back on Friday night. I am done with cooking and packing my daughter and niece to college. And so no more cooking till dinner time. I felt lazy and missed the morning exercise. I wanted to go for a walk but could not as it was raining and drizzling.Had no motivation to do any indoors exercise. So snuggled back to the bed to mylot.. Now, I am yawning and I need to move around to get some energy. Else I would end up in a morning nap and then feel lazy the whole day. I would do some bit of household work for a while and then come back here with my coffee in an hour. Catch you later... Have a good time in your mylot corner

It's drizzling non stop and is chill. I hate to go out on such days. But staying at home in such gloomy weather can be unproductive. I have been feeling sleepy and yawning the whole time Have a good night rest. See you later

We all are eligible for some lazy days unless we are habitual lazy sloths !! So you deserved such a day. Rains feel good but too much rains obviously put us off. I had morning tea and getting ready for the day's work. I am following up on the FIFA World Cup. Saudi Arabia upset twice champions Argentina by 2-1 yesterday!

@arunima25 In another upset, Japan defeated Germany and the margin? The same : 2-1. A headline flashed: Cup of upsets!

Yes, heard that in news. Well, that came as a surprise. Sports are more fun if there are such surprises. Yesterday was really bad. It was unproductive. I felt tired and sick throughout the day and could drag myself to do the bare minimum around the house. Today also started that way but then seeing sun after a gloomy start lifted my energy a bit to step out of house to work.

I love those mornings/days when you don't have to go through the whole scheduled routine of life. It is good to have such a break from the rush. Enjoy it all you can!!

@arunima25 Sometimes on those relaxed days, I actually feel more tired - I don't know why. Maybe there is something to energy level on those busy days - we keep it up because we have to. I hope you have good sleep and be completely refreshed for tomorrow!

Even I like a relaxed morning when there is no rush to go to work. And it's a blessing on weekdays . But today was a lethargic day. I felt tired and exhausted for no reason. Even nap didn't help much. It's 9:30 PM . I would hit the pillow soon. Want to wake up fresh. Hopefully I feel better tomorrow.

@much2say Yes. Totally agree. Today was the same wet gloomy morning and I felt no motivation to be out of bed. I slept a long stretch last night but still didn't feel fresh. Anyway I dragged myself to do things and go to work. Later being busy and moving kicked my energy levels.

@LadyDuck Oh! Sorry to know that it was so bad. Hopefully that helped and you are feeling better. I too avoid pain meds unless it's absolutely necessary. Today was lazy and lethargic. I felt tired and exhausted for no obvious reason. I hope that I feel good in the morning to go to work. I was literally dragging myself the whole day to get the bare minimum done.

Nothing going on here today, either. I told Pretty I'd go make some parmesan noodles with chopped smoked turkey after while but can be lazy until then. Hope you enjoy your lazy day.

@arunima25 I've already chopped the turkey and onions. I just need to start the noodles, so it will be ready in less than 30 minutes. We both like it so it won't last long. It's back down to 3C right now and is getting colder. Our low tonight is supposed to be about 0C.

@DaddyEvil Oh! Sounds good..I mean the food and not the temperature. Stay warm and take care. I guess this time the temperature drops are quite sharp for November. Even in India, it's getting too cold for November standard.

Oh! You better make it. Mention of good food creates the appetite and you can not betray that being lazy. I don't want a lazy day. I have to finish a few things around the house. But the cold and gloomy weather is making me yawn . I don't want to sleep

Just dragged myself to do the bare minimum around the house. Today also started with a wet gloomy morning. But then sun was out at 8 and that lifted my energy to leave the house for work . It's 1:30 afternoon and the clouds have started overpowering the sun again. I occasionally go through such phases where I don't feel motivated to post on sites despite being present there. I get into lazy moods quite often after the covid infection..I am definitely not in the same energy level as earlier.

Hope you are doing good. It is always good to see you here. I think that temperature has dropped sharp this year in November. Even Bangalore is feeling chilly. I was wearing a light woolen jacket and thick socks throughout the day.

@anil02 We had a cold week last week due to non stop rain and drizzle. The sun is back from weekend and it's better. Bangalore never gets too cold. But this November was the coldest one for Bangalore in many years.

If it's sunny, the winter is still manageable. The gloomy rainy weather makes it worse. You must be happy to see the snow melt. Hope you are not getting any more of them at least for couple of days.

Understandable. But I am okay with it. On Tuesday, I have only one session with the child and rest two hours go with meetings with parents/ teachers. I am free by 11:30 in the morning. I don't mind stretching my work day for another one hour next Tuesday.

Well, it's inflation everywhere and that pinches. It seems that you have bought things that you actually needed and not gone for impulsive buying..But even buying necessities is pricey these days.

Oh! Sorry about that. It doesn't feel good if the morning doesn't start on a good note. The rest of the day also goes haywire. Today I felt lazy and sleepy throughout the day. Dragged myself to do some bare minimum around the house. We had Maggie for dinner. Not sure why but I felt exhausted for no obvious reason. Good that you are feeling better now. I am also a bit better after afternoon nap. Hopefully, I am fully energetic by tomorrow morning. I don't want another lethargic day
