Grumble. Stomp. Internal screams.
Called back doctor, expecting the worst. Surprise! Prescription sent
Eyeglasses finally in. Made appt for later today. I hate going there.
Called mom to get all her medical insurance numbers and all the numbers I need to deal with the emergency services bill. This was arduous as she has had a stroke.
Called emergency services billing office. After waiting on hold for a while they bumped me to VM.
Really looking forward to going through recycling bin. 😤

Welp, here I go. I see a friend in about three hours so I'll want to pause my cleaning and rest for a bit in about 2 1/2 hours. I would *like* to do some more cleaning after I come back from the visit, but we'll determine if I'll have any energy for that.
TA-DA!:
*I had my coffee, meds. I'm upright (mostly).
*I sorted another bag of pantry items. We are getting there!
*I set an unneeded item away for donation.
TO-DO!:
*Sort through spices in the pantry.
*Tackle last/ highest pantry shelf. Amnesty will be hard for some of this stuff, but important.
*Sanitize shelves, microwave.
🪵🪚💪🏻🔥⭐

Went through recycling bin. No luck. I will have to go to DMV to apply for lost title in order to get my insurance check. Realized I have not yet applied for license plates for “new” car.
Collapsed in despair that my life is just a series of tedious bureaucratic tasks that are sucking me dry of the tiny bit of ease I can summon up.
Picked up glasses. Realized I paid when I ordered them. Will have to find receipt so I can use my prepaid health fund money. How do I do that? Not sure.
Emergency services called during the 30 min I was out of the house today. Info they needed was at home. I will have to do that tomorrow.
Forgot to mail bills on the way back from drug store.
Haven’t eaten today.
I’m going to watch the finale to Succession.

It's slow going over here, friends. I'm rather tired and distracted, and I've been paying too much attention to Hurricane Ian updates. It's not happening where I live, and for now I cannot really fix anything for anyone affected.
TA-DA:
*I went through my spices.
*I'm slowly attended to the highest pantry shelf...
*I'm consciously working towards limiting all the distractions around me today.
TO-DO:
*Keep plugging away at the highest pantry shelf.
*Sanitize shelves, microwave.
*Put blender away.
*Wash the soaking kitchen utensils from yesterday.
*Consider switching up the cleaning with a game like the dice game, or PUPA 10 items. This may help me to keep going with less grumbling and stomping.

Another kind of rough day/ evening, but better than yesterday at least. TA-DA: *I went to visit my friend and finally got my travel aquarium back. She was glad to see it go.  *I scrubbed the soaking kitchen items. *I rinsed everything and set it all out to dry. TO-DO: *Get to highest pantry shelf. *Sanitize shelves, microwave. *Put blender away. *Make plans for things to donate. *Consider switching up the cleaning with a game like the dice game, or PUPA 10 items. This may help me to keep going with less grumbling and stomping. 😶🌫️🌛 |

*I'm slowly attended to the highest pantry shelf... I read this as you were attending to your highest self. I like that, too. I am tired but cheerful. One friend isn't coming tomorrow, after all, so I don't have the pressure to finish all this by noon tomorrow. Washed dishes Round #2 (dinner, shredding, mixing, etc.).
Cleaned microwave. Got ready for bed. tomorrow and Friday
