Thanks for your input goldenthreads! I feel a little guilty posting so much about work tasks recently, but it's so helpful for me and then I create some space to deal with the house stuff, too. Esp working at home these days - it's all so intertwined. I like this sentiment: "We're whole people, not easily divisible parts." |

 on all that distressing meeting prep/meeting/tech stuff/workshopping!
I have two big challenging items on my agenda today. One is to list some stuff with DXH on fb marketplace. The other is to pack up my room and make space in the garage so we can bring it downstairs.
NOTE TO SELF: bring clothesrack home

Good luck with the two big items mylittlescholar!  Ok - just made and ate an ice cream cone.  Second one of the day - can you say stress eating?!  My brain feels exhausted and getting back to Zoom task is going to be almost impossible...so I'm going to have to scale down to looking at it for 1 minute... |

one minute at a time!
I am proud, I went ahead and took the clothes rack downstairs. Then I spied two sets of plastic drawers full of packing materials that I thought I could consolidate, so that I could bring them down with me to ease some of the storage challenge. I did that, AND tossed some empty makeup jars and merchandise tags, etc for projects I am not going to do. I managed to fit them plus the four new bins I bought into the car, so packing and loading is started!
I suppose I could do more of that while DXH is getting ready. basically my laundry and electronics. Also need to eat something.

Woohoo - great job mylittlescholar !!   Way to get something done, toss stuff AND take a moment to feel some self pride - yay!! Got through about 3 minutes of the zoom project - which was ok - I'm getting it back into my mind. Then I got distracted my two positive response emails from something I sent out last night that are related to this project - yay, so a tiny other piece was also moved forward. NEXT: 5 minutes zoom scenario - review the set up and see if I'm missing any info. Then send link to colleague for registration test run. |

Whew - thankfully i got on a roll and have completed several steps of the current project - woohoo! Now I'm mostly waiting to hear from other people in order to continue. NEXT: going to take a break from my computer and wash dishes for 5 minutes... Then I need to review my list for this project and decide what step to take next  |

Ok - got most of the dishes done!
Going to sign on to a personal webinar in about 10 minutes.
Then work day will be over, but I still have a lot to do, which is fine - I think more clearly once the pressure of the work day is gone.
Anxiety is pretty high, but I'm still inching forward...

thank you! and I'm proud of you, too! 
my anxiety has been flairing, but is okay at the moment. I took a nap, and am feeling a bit more human (I was up all night, which I probably already said).
I heard DXH puttering in the "pawn shop" (tool shed) so went down and took pictures of five more tools. Now to download them to folders, then upload them to the marketplace--see how many draft posts I can make at a time.

I thought I was done. came home to find the remediators in the driveway. saws a-blazin' tearing up the subflooring. M is trying not to imagine the worst.
Said hi to the cat and ate some rice. the DM called and said she needs emergency help with some IT stuff. SO... back to it!
NEXT UP: attempt to log in...

I do need to do one thing right now - so - work task CFAI - just do it!! |

Esp working at home these days - it's all so intertwined. I like this sentiment: "We're whole people, not easily divisible parts." I agree completely. All these aspects of our lives are intertwined - at least psychologically if not physically in the house. Whatever thing you're getting stuck on is the most important thing.
