Cutting a lot of material I should be including in my web page because I just want it done. Making web sites is not fun: it takes an hour to insert a paragraph that I should just simply be able to type in like I can on Microsoft Office. Kudos to those of you who are more technically able and more patient.
And I couldn't communicate with the practicum coordinator for next semester because the whole campus was shut down for Thanksgiving.
It doesn't help that my current mood is brain-dead. I don't want to do anything. I don't want to work. I don't want to socialize. I just want to stay at home and read and not have any obligations.
PS. Sorry, I'm especially crotchety today. I've made a few other crotchety posts today, and I'm sure you're all sick of me. Thanks for listening.

This is a place to vent and have people listen, so don't worry about seeming like a downer. I know finding the motivation is very difficult, but maybe you can try giving short term rewards for small amounts of work completed. Like if you do a half hour of work then you get to read for 20 minutes.
