Normally, I am a very motivated person.
I am a goer. A doer. A get-things-done-er.
But sometimes, I lose my motivation… Like when we are facing a cross-country PCS that we are a teeny-bit-less-than-excited about and the first trimester of pregnancy practically knocks me off my feet.
Don’t worry, this isn’t a whiny complaining post… I am grateful for this new season and excited that the State of my Uterus is currently occupied with Tiny Humans Numero Dos.
But getting ready for this PCS was quick a hairy beast of a task.
Not only was I just generally dragging my feet to get all the prep-junk done, but the incredible nausea and exhaustion like never before from growing this little one didn’t help.
That was when I knew it was time to engage something my husband fondly refers to in his army career as “FALSE MOTIVATION.”
Because let’s be honest– sometimes false motivation is greater than no motivation at all.

And speaking of which… I need to peel myself out of this comfy chair and get to crack-a-lacking. Fake smile- check. Smelly markers? Check. AMERICA! Check.
