Dull day...
Weather here in NYC is really yucky, drizzly, cloudy, cold, etc. I slept until 11:30 am today, since I didn't have anything to do.
Whenever I have nothing at all scheduled for the day, I sleep to much and even though there's a ton of things to do at home, nothing gets done. I don't want to get too lazy and I need to lose some weight. Any suggestions to get myself motivated? It's tough when I get in the "lazy" mode.

Ever thought of being a Dog Walker? Exercise & make some extra money! I was going to start a business but then Jack & Henri came along. Hugs!
Get a part time job at a green house! Get to work with plants!
I was feeling this way just last week. I had time off and was going really slow. If you can’t trust yourself not to sleep in, set an alarm (or 2) and make sure to get up to it. I took the advice of people here and did short bursts to get through my chores. I made a list of things that had to get done. After breakfast I broke the day down into segments and did a bit at a time, never thinking too far ahead, only about the task at hand.
Getting outside for a walk helps get the energy flowing too. Just don’t sit down as soon as you get home. Use the energy it creates to get straight on with something.
Take care friend. I hope you get a few things done around the house, even if the weather is too dull to go out.
I know your house is clean and it's not so bad sleeping late once in a while since you have to get up early most days, but setting an alarm for 9 when you don't have to get up early wouldn't be so bad at least you would have plenty of time to do things. A walk sounds like a good idea and so does the dog walking, at least that would pay, lol
