My goal is to make time for reading. I would like to get into a habit of diversifying my leisure time with more than TV and video games.

OK Later today, I need to pay my bills, complain about another, pick up meds, and register the car. My big goal for the rest of the week is to clean up my house well. Another is to make appointments with doctors, and get blood tests. I do need to do some grocery shopping later this week. Oh yes, I need to return a pair of headphones to Walmart.

I did get all this done except cleaning the microwave and taking the trash out which I'll do today.

This may seem weird but my goal today is to watch a movie. I'm having trouble concentrating but I want to watch it so I can return it to the library

Thank you, yellow_fleurs for this thread!
I have not been participating very faithfully, my apologies.

I have been accomplishing a lot on some days and not much other days. It really depends upon my pain levels.

I feel like I have gotten a lot done today, not because I did it, but because my new handyman did chores I cannot do. I like him and he just may work out!

I need to sit down , yet again, and set specific goals for each day.

Love to All!

My goal today was to go to the pharmacy, the library, and out to eat with friends, which I did

Tomorrow's goals are to go to the food pantry and start a new drawing

Hey, Yellow-Fleurs. Hope you're having a good night. --Cool name.

My daily goal: be an adult. So, filter out some stuff. (I got upset tonight that I have so much stuff--psychiatry notes--that my mom was working on. She's trying to get me on Disability. ...You know you ARE, largely, an adult when you feel stupid for drawing unnecessary attention to yourself. ...The good news is my emotions work just fine, and my mother cares.

I wish I knew the purpose--if there is one--for all these disorders.

Take care. Thanks for reading.

I did go to the food pantry but haven't started a new drawing yet, I should start that now!

Update: I got a little bit of sketching done

My goal today is to get through my shift at the grocery store. Hopefully it isn't busy although it probably will be since thanksgiving is around the corner.

Good luck! Just think of all the joy you're helping to facilitate by helping to bring families together over their meals

My goal for tomorrow is to go to the evening mass at my church. I haven't been going for a long time due to anxiety and paranoia but I'd like to start going again

I can no longer identify most of the chunks stuck to the walls. Luckily I have an easy process to clean it. I just need to do it more often. I can't even blame this on my kids. They can't reach the microwave. Lol

My sister is coming over in a few minutes. I have to talk about our dad and related issues, but my goal is to put him out of my mind as much as possible until Thanksgiving day, when I will just call him from out of state. I'll tell my sister to only call me in cases of emergency or crucial info. I will call my brother once, while away, to ask how he is.

I tidyied up and spot cleaned the house already today.

I will be doing vacation planning today.
