Wow, I didn't expect to see all these people posting! I'm going to have to restrain myself replying in the interest of keeping it simple and readable. I just want everyone to know that I appreciate your participation and hope that this is some encouragement to at least some people. It is to me.

So far today I:

** got up, had breakfast, made the bed, brushed my teeth and got dressed
** had a 1-mile walk
** pulled weeds in the front yard for 15 minutes
** took a shower
** put a few more pieces in the jigsaw puzzle
** read my 2 Bible chapters
** sat with a neighbor in her yard for a half hour

I try to go mostly by a schedule (can't really schedule the social encounters, but they are few) and have not been able to do a lot of it lately, but things are looking up. It's 4:30 pm and I'm up to the noon event. Hours to go...
I know I shouldn't worry about staying on the schedule at a lower-energy time. I had put the less important things in the late evening anyway.
