Would it help to maybe write up a list of things to do every day? Something for you (or whoever is out) could use to make sure that the "taking care of" stuff happens? It wouldn't have to be fancy or really complicated - just things like "eat breakfast - cold cereal", "change clothes", "wash face", "eat lunch - peanut butter sandwich". I used to do that when I didn't know how to be alone and it helped. I didn't like it, I didn't have to like it. I just had to make sure those few things got done every day and then I would be OK.

Do you have someone who could help you with grocery shopping? I keep a lot of really easy food stuff on hand all the time. That way I don't have to do a lot of work when it's time to eat. Plastic forks and spoons, too - no dishes to wash, either. Stuff like bread and peanut butter and popcorn and cereal and milk and cheese and apples or bananas. Maybe some microwave thingys 'cause the microwave isn't too hard.

And maybe post here a little every day? Share what you've been doing, how things are going?

Lots of love for Leslie & Pixies!!!
