Lots of bureaucratic caca. Signed up for health insurance on the Marketplace. I’m confused and overwhelmed, but at least it’s done. Break time. I still have to do my vision and dental. Among other things…. Let’s just do the best we can.  |

Health insurance can be so complicated. Congratulations on making the decision and following through, grasshopper!  Put away the dishes. Made a meal plan for several days. Put items for errands on launch pad.  Make tire appointment. Go for a walk or pedal. Do stretches. Go to pharmacy. Go to bookstore for food diary. Go to Whole Foods for some special flours. |

Hi, startingover and razy .   Went to bookstore for food diary; did not like what they had, but did find two excellent cookbooks that should work well. Went to Whole Foods for some special flours. Put away the flours. Emptied the car's litter bag. Entered purchase in grocery $ document. I keep falling asleep and being awakened by light snoring. I think I'll go to bed now and see what happens when I'm in bed before 8 pm. Good night! P.S. I just pulled out my calculator and was about to text my daughter, but the buttons were mostly numbers!   |

Good morning, seahorse ! Glad to see you back, mouseanne ! Things do pile up at certain seasons, and you're taking care of that.   Made bed and had meds. Started dishes soaking. Filled pill minder. Make tire appointment. Go for a walk or pedal. Do stretches. Cancel a subscription. Go to pharmacy. Get dressed. |

Hi WIT’s! I’m glad you’re here!
Last night I called my mom, walked the dog, got groceries,
Feeling like a failure today. Trying to resource. Trying to get my internal family to work together!
Maybe coffee.

I have a lot going on over the next few months. Planning a family reunion, flying to Sweden to visit places where my ancestors lived (still doing some research and planning for this), trying to build some raised bed gardens and get them planted, traveling to another state for a wedding. Sometimes I get side-tracked.
ta-da's:
Dishes are loaded in the dishwasher
Laundry has been started.
Ate a healthy breakfast, hours ago
Worked a bit on family tree... but went off into a rabbit hole... (I need to have clear goals for this and then stick to them. I want to refine a branch of the tree for the reunion... look up dates that I am missing, look up places on a map, create posters...)
to-do:
Continue with the laundry
Water houseplants. I need to start moving them outside for the summer, but today is probably not the best day for that.
Prepare a health meal

grasshopper I hope you're feeling more together after your coffee. Sounds like you got your most cooperative parts to do some things. Ally That sounds like a lot of interesting things you are and will be doing. Washed dishes. Did stretches. Put away dishes. Decided to clean my kitchen sinks. I don't put dirty dishes in them before washing, so not too terrible, but they really needed attention. So I used cleanser, and sprayed and used a toothbrush on the fixtures, and then I wiped, rinsed, and wiped dry with a towel. FlyLady would be proud. Then I remembered that the drains are slow. I pulled out my little drain swab-brush thingie. Oh, my! It was both disgusting and very, very satisfying. I've now put a ponytail holder near the sink to prevent hair-matrix clogging. Got dressed. Set up a quarantine bag for things I'm not eating. (Beans, flour, and pasta will stay where they are.) Make tire appointment. Go for a walk or pedal. Cancel a subscription. Go to pharmacy. Dump used marinade and dispose of it. Alternatively, boil and use as sauce. Hmm... PUPA will be different today--longer and more focused on categories: newspapers, magazines, and the Dana K. White method on the coffee table.
