Hi all Ally.. I have never prepped meals like that. Ingredients look good but does it taste the same on day 4 as the first day. Mouseanne good going on dishes. I only did some of mine. My dental implant (one tooth only) is tomorrow so today I dread. I should meal prep, which in my case is putting shelf stable foods by my bed. Pudding and peanut butter and banana. ta da dishes .All but the frying pans garbage out then can in. I have been leaving my garbage can in the hall. Less stairs. I should get a christmas tree skirt to throw over it  . put recycling into laundry room next up vacuum bedroom rug change sheets divide hamburger into portions and freeze Big project when I am feeling better is to take all things out of freezer-guess on the age and only put back what I will eat and not the questionable stuff. Needs to be the day before garbage day. |

Hi all. Sorry about your anxiety seahorseGood luck with your tooth beesnest. I keep these on a shelf in my fridge that is super cold. Stuff often freezes. There was one time a few weeks ago when I used some old yogurt, and it was pretty sour  but I still ate it. BetsyMarie, Good work in your kitchen!  ta-da's: Spent a bit of time tidying up in the kitchen ad getting yogurt started. Ate some lunch. Picked several messenger bag/computer bags out of my piles and will donate them. I am putting them through the wash on a gentle cycle currently. Added some compostable stuff to the raised garden bed that I am trying to fill. to-do: I might pull boxes out of the laundry room. The boxes contain kitchen stuff/knives that I put in there with my "experiment with less" project. I should be able to donate the contents without any issues, I hope.  Continue to tidy up areas around the house. |

Just set timer so that I don't forget about the cooking sweet potato!
Brought a few misc items upstairs and put in back room

10 minutes - gather info and compose work email that I've avoided and now it's an uncomfortably long gap between communication - oops
5 minutes bedroom tidying
Deep breathing to soothe wayward anxiety!
