I could be the long winter and not enough sun shine. Try taking vitamin D3. That may help. You can't take to much of it and my Dr. told me in the winter be sure and take at least 1000 ICU's. It helps with SADS also.

I'm with you. I go sit in my room and eventually get up turn off the light and go do something else. This last weekend I did pull out all my finished quilt tops that need to be quilted. I have 35. I want to start with the smaller ones that I can quilt on my regular machine and then decide what to do with the big ones. Anyway, they are still sitting where I left them. My friend came over and we went to the quilt shop and I bought another project. I hope it will get me started again.

If there are to many things staring you in the face it can be overwhelming and you don't know what to do first. This is not in just quilting, but every aspect of life. I have had to make lists and put my ducks in a row, so to speak, and that has seemed to help.

I'm following this very closely. Hope you can help me too. Thanks
Blessings.

Go see your friends who are productive they will inspire you to start moving again. Good Luck
Sometimes it just takes time. But never give up!! 8-)
