Every year about this time... I slide into a slump. The holidays are over and it just doesn't seem quite so exciting. Having such cold weather doesn't help any either. I don't like to feel shut in. So, this year, I'm taking matters into my own paws. I'm not going to slump this year. I'm going to make January the most productive of months.
Here's how I plan to do it...
1. I'm going to start writing that murder mystery. It'll be the first in the Max the Quilt Cat Murder Mystery Series. The outline is ready. Here I go to get to work on it.
2. I'm not going to sit around watching TV. I'm going to stand up and move around when I watch TV or I'm going to determine which shows I want to watch and turn the thing off for the others.
3. I'm going to do laps around the house between naps. It's always good to exercise to raise the spirits.
and...
4. I'm going to enjoy my naps, guilt free...
What are you going to do to avoid the January Slump?

What a great idea, Max! To combat the January slump I plan to continue with my weight-loss program. I'm less than 5lbs away from my goal. After so much hard work, it would be very easy to slack off, but I want to keep moving forward. I plan to continue exercising and monitoring my food intake, making adjustments when necessary.
Yay for you Michelle. You got the right cattitude for sure.

Great tips Max! Mom bilt me a kitty igloo wit piles of snow on da bawcony & I wikes to hide in it & pwetend I's a ferocious tiger. It gets me out of the slumps pwayin fun kitty pwetend games =(^o^)=
Hi Max! I do counter da slump by sleeping in da sunlight. We take turns napping on the dining room table and the window cat bed. Plus da lady takes us out in the brisk cool air for a bit of exercise. And we play wif our toys lots too.
The lady was trying to sleep in the sun too, but the hooman vet said she wasn't generating enough vitamin D3. She now supplementing Vitamin D3 and also points you to this article.

Congratulationns - dat sounds like a great way to avoid January slump. It's great to hear you are working on a bookie too. I takes lots of naps, and I avoid the slump when my oomans play ball with me. M says she's back on her diet and WILL lose the 10 she has to go. She's also in a water exercise thingy at the CP Center. They have fun and keep fit at same time. Always enjoy your bloggy.
What a good idea...I don't have the energy you do. I like my naps.
I can't wait to read a kitty murder mystery. January slumps are waaayyyyy bad. Me, mom, and dad are all having dem. Usually mom and dad go snowmobiling, not dis year - not enuff snow or $$. Need new roof. Me I found the new sheet game - did you see my blog. First time I have written since October, Iz been in real slump. UGH
You sounds like you got lots of things planned... Good for you. *Headbutts*
