scunnert

is a very descriptive scottish word used to describe a general feeling of boredom and fed-up-ness, when you really just can't be bothered ...

lately, there's never enough hours in the day, it doesn't seem to matter how early i get up, how late i get to bed and how hard i work, i never get to the bottom of that to-do list ... there's the stuff i need to do that never gets finished and then the stuff i want to do that's there's never enough time for.

i know that i have much to be thankful for and i really shouldn't moan but i'm feeling a little scunnert right now.

Having just suffered just that - too tired to sleep, too tired to do all the things on my bottomless list, too tired to actually even craft or enjoy my day - so I know exactly how you feel, don't worry you are not alone!! And now I have a new word for that exact feeling = scunnert and I shall say it with such feeling :)

I really like this word and I think I can share this frustration at times. Too many items on the list!
