Another great idea BetsyMarie! Well glad you thought of them even if it did take awhile. Good work none the less! I didn't get very far in all that time even though I kept at it. You wouldn't think it would take that long to rinse and step on aluminum cans, but it did. I have to find a stand alone crusher to keep outside on the back porch that doesn't have to be attached to a wall. Will get up and do more each commercial, but I only get to watch one of my favorite show "Back To The Country" on my nights off work, so going to allow myself to watch it long as I keep working. I have to sleep for work on the other weekdays it is on. Problem is they do put them back to back so a long stretch of shows are on. I need to watch them online I guess if there are online so the timing will be when it is best for me. done picked up 3 items from bedroom and put them in the proper rooms they belong rinsed and crushed 50 cans there was already a commercial while typing this up so crushed 10 more rinsed 10 more broke down a cardboard container for recycle todo keep working each commercial finish rinsing and crushing what cans I see lying about still need to toss 3 items from fridge still need to fill trash bag and tie off will work on papers while I watch the shows

Washed dishes. Started broth. Decided to cut my losses and toss it all. It's just a bit off. Wouldn't kill me, but I wouldn't enjoy it, either. Got dressed. Figure out how and why I ended up with Amazon Prime!! Cancel if I still have it. PUPA 5 minutes. Spend 10 minutes clearing/organizing table. Go for a walk. Go through boxes for 5 minutes. Declutter at least 5 things.

Hi mylittlescholar , welcome to the thread. Glad you could get an appt, erniethecat . Long waits for appointments seems to be the norm these days. I thought I was done for the day - the guys were weed-whacking on the hill this afternoon, and I always am anxious while they, or anyone, is in the yard (and house, of course). So when they were done, I needed a rest. But after relaxing a while, I decided that any time I put in now decluttering was less time I'd have to do on another day. done -about 45 minutes decluttering, consolidating, recycling, tossing in the studio. -swept around a window where a bin previously had been. -brought some things to the sink for washing I'm going slowly, but it's not onerous, and I am making progress. I worked in another part of that room a few days ago too. Headway...

Report on the oxymel I made, for which I had low expectations: It is delicious! It's tangy, a bit sweet, and pleasantly herby. Before it was strained, it smelled like a bunch of old herbs, but the taste is yummy. I have just spiked my sparkling water with it. Put out compostables; dealt with a few dandelions while out there. Went for a walk, and talked to my mother while out. PUPA 5 minutes. Figure out how and why I ended up with Amazon Prime!! Cancel if I still have it. Spend 10 minutes clearing/organizing table. Go through boxes for 5 minutes. Declutter at least 5 things.

Before it was strained, it smelled like a bunch of old herbs, but the taste is yummy. I have just spiked my sparkling water with it. I'd never heard of oxymel, so looked it up. Years ago i played around with making drinking vinegars, also known as 'shrubs'. Steep fruit, sugar/sweet, and vinegar, dilute with water, and drink. I must not have loved it, or I'd still be making it. Or maybe it was too messy. Or I ran out of fruit. Might try again with seasonal fruits however. I doubt I used carbonated water however. That would make it better.

razy - thank you! I hope so too! I'm sorry work is going hard for you. I hope today is better. I'm feeling a bit more positive this morning. When I talked to the psychiatrist yesterday she said I was exactly where she would expect me to be, which was really reassuring. I was worried I would spin out of control, but if she says I'm okay, I'm okay :-). I've been seeing her for 8 years, so I feel like she knows me better than my lying brain does. Ok, time to get to work. 1. Email 2. Customer service 3. Calendar
