    Default Not in the mood

    1. Today I'm not in the mood for kidding.
    2. Today I'm not in a joking mood.
    3. Today I don't have the mood to kid around.

    Do these three sentences have the same meaning and sound natural in conversations?

    Thank you so much

    1 and 2 are OK.

    3 is not natural.
