minnie Your caramel cider sounds wonderful. You are handling this time of year well by getting packages sent and taking care of children and house! razy It's very smart and humane toward yourself when you plan to stick to basics at home while doing extra at work! yrwelcome You seem to be making packing a daily habit. Wrapped present. Washed dishes. Worked out logistics for errand with daughter. Replace batteries in pedometer. Do stretches. Get dressed.

Hi goldenthreads- I'm impressed that you already have a gift wrapped minnie- I've been there with the depression and lack of energy to keep up with all the house work. I hope taking action to improve things is helping you feel more optimistic. makeup, hair, skincare done emptied DW sorted mail over recycling bin rotated books in little free library, added a Christmas themed children's book called for bathroom window replacement bid ordered after-market key fob for car texted realtor that I will not be there at closing dogs out for off leash exercise 15 min packing stuff 15 min pruning
