Finding Direction:  The Wind Vane Chronicles

You Know You’re In A Slump When . . .

August 3rd, 2010 · 5 Comments · Blogging, Finding Direction Contests, Reflections

You know you’re in a slump when . . .

(1) you peruse Facebook and old email forwards for good material for a blog post.

(2) you’re too lazy to make fresh coffee and drink the leftovers from the last pot made.

(3) when you’re too lazy to do even that!

(4) you put off phoning anyone because you don’t have the enthusiasm or energy to even hit the buttons on the phone to call.

I could go on here, but won’t.  See, I’m in a slump and it’s too much work.

How do you know when you’re in a slump?  Surely, I’m not the only one in this close to three digit heat.  Let’s hear it, y’all.

I know one thing you’d better not be in a slump about and that’s entering the current Finding Direction Summer 2010 Photo Contest.  Some really good ones have come in, but some of you are procrastinating and you only have through August 15 to get them turned in.

Send them to me a jpgs.  If you need my email address, write to me from the contact form at the top of the page here and I’ll give it to you.  I’d like to have some more good ones and I know y’all have some, so share them with us!

That’s it for now.  Get to work going through your photos for the contest and stay “Un” slumped!!

Cheer!  (See . . . I don’t even have enough energy for more than “one” cheer.)

P. S.  At least, it’s now August and football season is close at hand.  Tom has a new Dallas Cowboys T-shirt and cap, so he’s ready to go.  Those accessories will go well with his new boathouse!  ha!

    108 degrees yesterday and 106 degrees today and I am in a slump as well. Just don’t have the energy to do anything.

    I’ve not been so much in a slump as I have just been a grouch! My Wednesday blog tells the story…. Looking forward to the results of the 2010 Summer Photo Contest.

    I’m not in a slump. It is hot! Thankfully I don’t have to be out in it too much. AC in the house and car are blessings I am very thankful for.

    Ah, summer, what power you have to make us suffer and like it. ~Russel Baker

    Don’t guess I’ll complain about our 88 degree weather. I think I’ve probably sent in all the photos I should, but I might be able to come up with more. Stay in the cool house and read some good books, Dee. Take this as a sign from God to slow down.
