I've noticed that when I get to feeling all out of sorts like yesterday, the rest of my life falls apart too. Well not that bad, but things get crazy. Like I cant find time or the motivation to read scriptures, my house gets to be a disaster in a matter of .0089 seconds, and I find myself not wanting to do crap but laze around and sleep. And then when I finally realize whats going on, then usually I've got to go back and do damage control.
But, praise the Lord, I am able to realize these times faster each time they happen, so less damage is done. (by damage i mean messy rooms, lack of motivaiton...) I also have found this comes as a result of not enough sleep. (guilty.)
But even though my lack of motivation for prayer and scriptures is present, I still know He is around waiting for me to come back to life. I still listen to the daily devotionals in the car ride to work, and the hymns on the way home, and my husband and I still pray at night, its just the fervor I normally have for His word and teachings just kind of goes "poof!" I know these are only temporary feelings, but man... I just want to sleep.
I am coming out of this phase today, as I am realizing what went on yesterday and I've got some residual from yesterday with me today. I am perking up as I realize that I must do damage control again, although I must say this is the shortest apathy-gig I've ever been on, which is a good thing. Does anyone else ever feel this way?

Oh, I definitely relate, especially about the more tired and apathetic you feel, the quicker everything seems to go downhill. It's such a vicious cycle... glad it's ending for you. :)
