Welcome to July! The guidelines for WIT are simple: - Do some little thing to make your house less squalorous. āļø - Do one more little thing. - Do another little thing. - Once you have 3 things done, post them here! - Post the next 3 things you plan on doing. - Go forth and conquer, return and post again. - You aren't required to do the 3 things you had planned on -- just get any 3 things done and then post proudly. Remember - if you are tired or sick or injured or depressed or overwhelmed, or just need to break your tasks down into something manageable, you are in the right place! If the next 15 minutes consists of: - Looked at hopeless living room and felt like crying š¢ - Decided you could take empty pop can to kitchen - Put away book š - Picked up fast food wrappers on coffee table and put them in trash  . . . YOU HAVE ACHIEVED THREE-DOM !!! You could post: Ta-Da's - Took pop can to kitchen - Put away phone book - Threw away McDonald's wrappers Then your To-Do's: - Bring plates and glasses to kitchen - Put dirty socks in hamper - Bring folded towels to linen closet and put away. Whether you do those 3 to-do's, or something completely different, once you've gotten 3, come back and post. Remember to take breaks and drink water. Drinking water counts as a Ta-da! If you can notice what the person before you did, it might cheer them up to hear from you. Go forth, have fun, and be generous to yourself with the Ta-das. YOU DESERVE THEM! |

Hi, grasshopper!  Here's July!  Took out compostables. Washed dishes. Did some prepping and consolidation of food in the refrigerator; got rid of two foods I don't eat anymore. Got dressed. Went to Middle Eastern market to buy tea; got a few other things, too. Put away groceries.  Do stretches. Clear the bed so I can use it.  Fold and put away the towels from the dryer. Put away dishes. Who-knows-when errand: Home Depot to recycle bulb. |

Middle Eastern market sounds fun.
Walked dog.
Ate something(including fresh greens) (also chocolate cake)
Took vitamins and meds.
Going to go to a park event. My depression is telling me not to, but Iām going to go anyway.

The market is just a store, but if you ever want spices, this is where to go--so many different spices, in both bulk and various sizes of bags, including a few ten-pound bags (I assume those are really for restaurants). I hope the park event was enjoyable, grasshopper!  Folded and put away the towels from the dryer. Put away dishes. Watered back lawn. Do stretches. Clear the bed so I can use it. |

10 lbs! Must be for restaurants. Or communes.  Parking was too difficult so I came back. Stopped at drug store. Looked for fly paper. No luck. Tried to find open bookstore on the way. No luck. |

Good morning!  Glad to see you here, seashell . I find more people posting makes me feel part of a larger effort, so it's motivating for me, too. Hope the boric acid and glue boards do the trick, mouseanne ! Did morning watering. Had meds and folded blankets. Filled pill minder. Do stretches. Clear the bed so I can use it. This evening: Plant radish seeds. Replace parsley with new parsley. |
