All I want to do is be productive. I'm not tired at all. I just want to get things done. Too bad my laundry is done, my clothes are all folded, my homework is all done, my room is clean, my drawers are organized, the closet is organized and I have taken care of all the paperwork type stuff I have to do.

I have nothing to do! And apparently that is a bad thing.

i also have nothing to do. well when im suppose to do something i do it at the last minute. you did everything, just chill out on your computer and pop open a cremesoda and tell the fast paced world to stfu, ^^

Clean behind the stove.
I get that way I am a neat freak by default.
That means to much energy to sit still.

I wish you lived closer to me cause I have a list a mile long of things to be done!!! I know what you mean though. I hate when I get like that and can't just relax and not do anything. That is usually when I start taking apart things that I shouldn't and quit half way through putting them back together...

like I just posted I get the urge to take a small trip just to make the world different. maybe a night in a hotel but eat at greasy spoons and truckstops cheap but something to do.

damn. I wish I had that kind of motivation. PTSD sucked it right out of me!

I decided to use a lint roller to get all the hair off of my floor that my vacuum won't pick up. That occupied me for about 10 minutes. Now on to the next task.

Clean a floor with a toothbrush. See how fast you can go.

Gemiwing- Haha....that would keep me busy for quite a while

deleted_user 01/26/2009

it sounds silly, yet it really does help me when manic lol. That and cleaning all the baseboards in the house with a toothbrush. I take a big task and use a small tool and let the ocd roll.

Write a Poem or write something.

If you are computer literate, do a cleanup :)

Unnecessary programs, junk files and so on. When I get bored and wanting to do something, my computer usually gets a overhaul.

can you zap yourself to my house??? pretty please! have zero motivation and the kitchen wall was marked badly by steam from pots boiling. it is driving me crazy (as if i was not crazy enough) but still can't motivate myself to wash it! also am afraid of heights and it would look ridiculous clean on the bottom and dirty on top. see how urgent the need is??? lol

deleted_user 01/26/2009

Well I woke up this morning all hot and sweaty due to this heat wave we are having here at the moment. I have been too lazy to have a shower the past couple of days and my hair was all greazy...so I shaved my hair off...

that solved that problem.

I'm with irishwriter---PLZ come help me! My house is a mess, my wife is exhausted 24/7, my fibromyalgia won't LET ME effin clean without two weeks worth of side splitting pain, (gonna have to do it anyway! argh!), and I have a damn inspection by the $&*$()*&% carpet bagging interlopers on Tuesday. This house is a wreck. I mean, seriously.

Alliegator 01/26/2009

I would love to come clean all of your houses. Seriously. Last year when I lived in the dorms I would clean other people's rooms who lived on my floor whenever I was hypomanic
