Thanks, Bizi!
Thank goodness for hope.
At some point, though, it may be helpful for me to accept a "new" baseline and stop feeling guilty. Instead of "letting things go," and feeling worse about that, maybe I would benefit from proactively seeking help with tasks? My "cleaning lady" has turned into a very trustworthy, understanding friend. She wants more work, maybe we can budget in some additional work for her.

A part of the "problem" is: as soon as I gain some energy, there's an overwhelming amount of work to be done. I can only do it "a day at a time."
I've been in a very deep depression for a year, so there is lots to catch up on!

I appreciate your loving-kindness!
