Positive things I've done today (contribute yours)

I forced getting out of bed to take my morning meds, washed my face, put some dirty dishes on to soak. Vacuumed the floor in two rooms and jumped on here to spread the word, today I'm alive and I'm glad you are too.

Back in bed now.

Hugs.

I vacuumed upstairs, finished my husband’s t-shirt for Fathers Day, started laundry and swept the front part of the main level. May vacuum the rest of the house and take a shower before our daughter and her boyfriend arrive.

I bought him a candy bar bouquet yesterday so he’ll be set with chocolate for a while.

Took my meds last night and went to sleep even though I didn't want to. Today so far I washed the dishes and took a nice walk

Took a shower, didn't feel like it but I feel better after taking one

I took my Dad out for a Fathers’ Day breakfast, cleaned off the outside table and brought out some chairs for it.

I made my dad breakfast for Father's Day
Separated dirty laundry

Spring cleaned my parrot's cage, stand, and will clean the flooring under the cage. Other housework and meal prep. I'll definitely need a shower after all of this.

I cleaned my kitchen and did the dishes this morning and then we spent the afternoon on the lake. I played games with my kids, my husband and my dad. I cooked a nice filet mignon dinner for Father's Day and then served strawberry shortcake for dessert. It has been a great day.

I did laundry finally!

I did laundry
Went to IOP
packed for a hiking trip tomorrow that I've been trying to do for weeks

Wrote an email to the vet with concerns and questions about my kitty.

I skipped my usually Monday laundry blitz, my back and shoulder were too sore. I made cookies (just a half batch) instead. I think my mental health needed to do something different from the norm, and something just fun and just because. And now I have cookies.

I did the essential housework, put something in the slow cooker for dinner. I had a long bath, washed my hair, and put clean sheets on the bed.

I helped clean the Guinea pig cages and cleaned my turtle`s tank and did a bit of cleaning. All this felt like a gigantic task. I really had to push myself today.

I got out of bed today. I made coffee for me and my wife. I fed the dogs. I went to work. I finished all outstanding tasks at work. I had lunch, which is good as I don't have an appetite. I started being active on this site.

I did a few loads of laundry and the dishes. I took my oldest to camp and played games with my youngest. We made banana bread too. I bought mulch for the yard and installed it. I did my exercise video for the day. I'm worn out now and I'm relaxing while my kids are resting and then it is back to finding ways to keep the summer fun for all before I make dinner.

Showered, did not exercise half as much as I started out intending, took cat stool sample to vet (truly disgusting), dropped off box of stuff for Goodwill, fixing to see the T.

First significant amount of social interaction in months, spent the whole day with my friend and had so much fun!

Did some chores, made all meals, did a load of laundry, made a hair coloring and eyebrow wax appointment, and took a full shower washing my hair. Didn't eat all of what I planned for myself in my diet meal plan.

Forced myself to go out to the movies with my daughter even though I didn’t feel up to it. I feel better for having gone.

Today was a pretty low functioning day, and there was a whole lot of sitting on the couch with a heating pad. But I did manage the housework essentials, and kitty care. I had a bath, managed to straighten my hair, put on some make up and get to a couple of shops for provisions.

I took a shower today!
Though I hurt myself getting dressed...see thread below.

I tried to cheer my cousin and myself up by writing her an email in which I imagined a silly and funny reality show based on my struggles in the days of covid reopening. My goofy terrier gets to play a part and gets his own groomer on the set!
I researched getting a new pharmacy-ours has gone to hell trying to give covid shots in a minuscule space in a Target store.
I thought about how to solve some very serious problems.
I entertained my ex who was helping in the kitchen by reading funny and wonderful dog stories from Apple News such as dog gives woodchuck a ride across a lake and receives a woodchuck kiss from the rodent--this is a true story, I swear! and retriever dog saves fawn by dragging it across a lake. These are true stories!
I read some amazing thoughts about how to deal with difficult situations on this forum.
Great post! Two of my favorite people are on this post, BB and Fern. I have been off the forum for months and you folks make me realize I need it so thanks!

Is this who I think this is?

I got up at 3:15 am on three hours sleep and got granny ready. Took her to hospital and waited til 4pm to take her home after knee replacement surgery.

She’s resting comfortably

My Dr. put me on Lamactil. It actually made my depression and anxiety worse. We monkeyed around with the dosage and I finally said, I'm done with this, and took myself off, I know you aren't supposed to do this, but I did it very slowly and incrementally. I am so glad I did this. I went a whole year with it and am so sad I didn't realize it was a horrible fit sooner.

I keep replying to old threads. That is funny.
What I accomplished today was learning to look at the year of a post when responding.
I put laundry away and took the trash out.
