Ugh - my mood is plummeting because I'm starting to feel quite anxious. I decided to make and eat an early lunch, so that's done.
NEXT: Write out check to therapist, put in envelope and seal...put on coat and shoes and go to Post Office - mail letter and check po box.

I am "on duty" tonight, assisting DXH. In between I hope to get some small steps done on the things that are bugging me the most. But first we need to update his med sheet.
DONE: set up typing space gathered discharge document gathered meds we received last night gathered log book.

Really struggling today to get up and do anything, which means I'm doing nothing. I have been playing the piano a bit, which is at least a creative outlet. I just want to snuggle up in bed and doze off. I will see if I can do one thing...go downstairs and put away any clean dishes in the dish rack. Oh - and I will take some dirty dishes with me...my bedroom is filling up with dirty dishes.

Ok - that was a bust...I started to watch something on youtube "just for a minute" then dozed off and am now waking up all groggy like.
Now - I will get up, take 1 dish downstairs and put away 1 clean dish

Well, I got another few dishes downstairs, but then opened up some chips and salsa and am back in bed snacking. I have an internal mutiny happening here. I want to have a tidier home and yet I refuse to do anything to make it happen. Quite the quandary.
Ok - I see that the cat's water bowl is just about empty - I will get up, rinse it out and fill it up in the bathroom sink.

Success! Cat water bowl is now full. I also went into the back bedroom and scooped the cat pan. Poor kitty - I lost my groove for a few days and there are multiple poop piles on the floor that I will need to clean up. I have zero energy. I will take a few more dishes downstairs and if I can remain standing, I will work in the kitchen for 1 minute!

Ok - finally got up and took a few more dishes downstairs, set timer for 2 minutes - got the clean dishes put away and gathered random pieces of kitchen trash and put in the garbage can and did a little more tidying. It's a start.
I see a scarf on my bed that I'm going to hang in the closet and that will be one less item on my bed.

Hung up the scarf and took a few more dirty dishes downstairs. Brought a few stray items that were in the foyer upstairs and now they are on the bed. Ugh - going to attempt to pick up one kitty pile in the backroom. I will need to find the spray cleaner bottle, too. Uh oh, kitty just appeared and is eyeing my chest as a potential nap spot...

Snuggled a bit with kitty and then decided to take some more dirty dishes downstairs. Started soaking a bunch of silverware in a soup pot that's been in the sink for a week now. Turned on some music to see if I can stir up a little energy. NEXT: 5 minutes - work on packing list for road trip that I'm taking in two weeks

Ok - started to think about trip, which is helpful because getting ready is going to take a lot of effort.
NEXT: Can I get up, go downstairs and wash five pieces of silverware?

Washed about 10 pieces of silverware - some progress! Will go downstairs again and wash at least 1 item in the sink. When I come back upstairs, I will attempt to go into the back room and pick up one kitty pile...

Washed a few more dishes and then picked up two kitty piles and sprayed floor in those areas. Ugh - when I leave them too long, the wood floor gets permanently stained with a white area.
Will take a short and then probably do the same thing - wash at least one dish and then clean up one kitty pile.
