Other than lay on my couch under a blanket watching kid tv. I got half if my house cleaned. Floors, baseboards, bathrooms, kitchen, dishes, made dinner, did laundry ect. How did that happen?

I mean I still feel pretty depressed, but somehow I managed to do something. I could have kept going, but I'll leave the other half of the house and maybe something will happen tomorrow.

For now I gotta go have a shower and get dressed, and brave the stores for some Xmas shopping. So then again maybe nothing will happen tomorrow.

I even ate a meal.
Thanks for this!

Thank you guys

I went out for a smoke, yes toxic, but the overwhelming smell of my house, omg I hope pine sol isn't toxic. I may have used a tad too much

The kids are all still moving so that's a good sign, I think.

AHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! As long as its just Pine Sol and you didnt mix it with other chemicals you and the kids should be just fine. Maybe turn a fan on or something to move the air around.

In college we were cleaning our large bathroom and mixed cleaner, bleach, ammonia, Drano and commet. Perty much made mustard gas. Burnt your eyes, nose and throat so bad we had to clear everyone out. Never did that again

Excellent, Anika! And I thought I had unexpected accomplishments today -- yours blew mine right out of the water!

Know what you mean with the scent. Sometimes I get so carried away with that Soft Scrub with bleach I can taste it! Just from its being in the air!

Great job, Anika

There is purple pine sol out there, I forget the scent maybe lavender but it smells better than the green.

Wish I could get some of your energy.

Keep up the good work and I'm glad you ate!

Bleach + ammonia creates a toxic gas! I thought everyone knew that? Well, glad you survived it OK!

Yay, Anika!

So glad it's improving, even a little bit, even for one day. That kind of hope keeps us going.

I had a good day too - wrote 7 pages! At that rate, I might even finish on time.

IZ, what did you get done? I wanna know haha. I'm glad for you, sometimes it's so hard to get anything done so doing something is a real accomplishment.

Ani, awesome work!!! Holy cow, your really attacking it. I hope it keeps on coming!

I woke up to really intense womanly cramps and severe sore joints, dong know I'll be real productive today. But I'm going to work on eating. I have yoga tonight, don't want to have any more blacking out. I do feel a little better mood wise, maybe the AD is starting to work

Took a shower (), packaged up an Ebay thing, took BF out for a haircut, went to post office, bought new pillows for the bed ($4!), picked up BF then we went to the GROCERY STORE (a place we both hate to go).
Morning? Woke up and laid in bed for 3 1/2 hours before being able to face getting up, so, it was quite the surprise(!)
Today the sun is out and I am DETERMINED to get a bunch of stuff done.

Sorry you're feeling yucky today, Anika. Proper eating is a good goal. Good luck with yoga tonight. Mood up? Yea!
