    At work today, there was an overabundance of people, no animals that needed treatments, and nothing pressing that needed doing. We were all staring at one another, so I left. I got off work at 10:30 excited to come home and work on projects and be productive in my own home.

    It is now 2:01 and I have no desire what-so-ever to even TOUCH my sewing machine. None. No desire to work on ANY of the ufo's that I have. None. No desire to sort through my stash, no desire to organize my thread, no desire to even think about crafting/quilting.

    What is wrong with me??? I don't think I'm feverish, I am not nauseated, I feel generally fine...how is it possible that I have no desire to quilt...AND I'M OK WITH IT???
    It's kinda scarey.

    Go with the flow. Do whatever does sound interesting and come back to sewing later! Enjoy :-)

    Maybe you need a "brain break" from sewing. Sometimes my head gets so cluttered with quilting related stuff I just have to take a day off altogether!!! :-) Go with it!!

    You are in serious need of some retail therapy, as prescribed by Dr Maride. Get yourself some pretty fabrics and thread and you will see an incredible change. The sizes and colors are up to you. By the end of the day something will be finished.

    Sure. The best part is that there is no charge for the consult, so you can spend more.

    You must have just needed some "down time". Its perfectly normal. Just relax and let yourself go..... and do nothing and don't feel guilty at all!

    It happens to everyone sooner or later! LOL

    Maybe it's time you just sat down and did nothing!!! We all need to do that once in a while without feeling guilty!!!

    It happens to all of us sometimes. You will get over it.
