I have days like that. I have a difficult time with body pain that makes me wish I could just stay in bed all day, but I have three children that need me...they are sometimes the only thing that gets me up and moving.
What gets you up and going when you just don't want to get out of bed?

I don't need to get up. I eventually get bored just laying there and find some energy to get up and take a shower/get dressed, IF I get dressed that day. Sometimes.. nothing helps. It just happens.
I usually need some help. I sometimes drink my favorite coffee, a few cups, or my favorite tea to get me going.

Cats are amazing creatures. I have two. They are my babies. Anastasia and Sir. Anastasia is mine and Sir is my boyfriends, they got along great when they first met. It is like having two children. They sneak into the bedroom around 4 in the morning, get in between us, and purr. Making those cute sounds. Then they pounce on us and wonder why we aren't feeding them yet! Lol.
I understand the "I don't have much to look forward to" thing. I don't really either. I have no responsibilities. I like to keep the house clean. I can't drive anywhere (DMV and doctors literally won't let me), I bake sometimes and make jewelry if I'm in a really good mood.. but I really have nothing to do during the day. less

I don't get to drive around anywhere either. My boyfriend and I have two cars, but he always takes mine to work because it gets good gas mileage and it's a dependable car. I cannot drive his old truck or I would wreck into everything or probably break down somewhere. Oh well. So I stay at home and clean, cook, and make jewelry too.

One of my cats will poke me in the eye or scratch me on the lip if I don't get out of bed to feed her, so I have no choice! Sometimes, once I'm up, I'm up! Other times, I get up, feed them, then get the hell back to bed... but having pets who rely on me helps to at least get me out of bed for a bit; even if their methods are dirty and a little obnoxious!

I have kids so I have to get up to take care of them. but I do have those days and make sure they're safe and taken care of then enjoy a nap. but since I'm expecting my third baby soon who knows how things will go. I definitely miss the freedom of no kids, they are worth it though so no regrets. Thankfully I have help from family and can have sleep in days.

Coffee only helps after you get up. I have to set two alarms (out of reach) to make sure I get up on time.

Sometimes those 5 hour energy shots help, but they aren't a substitute for proper sleep. Apples are a good pick me up food, too.
09/02/2012
I don't have a choice, I have to get up, get the kids up, and head to work.

I don't drink a ton of coffee, only once and a while.

Usually the thing that gets me out of bed every morning is that I HAVE TO PEE! And then I think that the dog has to pee, too. Yup, that's about it.
09/03/2012
I would stay in bed all day on my days off if not for my sweet little dogs who can't walk themselves. They are so patient when Mommy is sad. I get up for them.

A lot of days the only reason I get out of bed is because I have to pee, lmao.

Lol having to go to work helps me get out of bed. I don't want to but i do it anyway. Even on my day's off I'll lay in bed for maybe a half an hour and read a book and just enjoy lazing about. But otherwise i turn my couch potatoing to my living room and my computer. :p But yeah i love coffee too, sometimes a goal can help you get up and atom, if you don't have a morning job, are in school or w/e you could do a light exorcise routine, go for a walk/run. Set a craft to do or a book to read and just motivate yourself.

I honestly don't like coffee...but I'll drink it if I have to stay up. Most of the time, I take B12 vitamins and GNC's burn calorie pill (has green tea in it) to wake me up.

I am a stay-at-home mom and lucky that I am not the one driving the kids to school at the crack of dawn, but it still is my kids that get me up.
My son goes into school later than my daughter so he usually wakes me up with something he needs. Thankfully by then I usually feel rested enough to get up. I am soo not a morning person, and in that regard I am really happy that my schedule up until now has not forced me to be one.
If I were going to work at the crack of dawn I would definitely need several alarms and maybe a bucket of cold water tossed at me to get me up LOL.

Thinking about all of the things I want/need to get done that day usually works just fine.
