So did I. That is why I will only use her go to bed - and morning routines. Not her mails about how I shall work through my day.

In the evening we are supposed to go through our planner for the next day (for us depressed there is no need to have a busy plan, but at least a few items we want to accomplish). After going through our planners, we are supposed to clean our sinks and lay out our cloth for the next day before we go to bed. A good routine, I think.

In the mornings we are supposed to get up when the alarm rings and dress from top to toe.

I will not set my alarm too early, because I have been sleeping 11 hours each night the last nights.:zzz:

I suppose that is due to depression. Hope that Flylady's morning- and go to bed rituals may help me come through this dark period in my life. :)

I have shined my sink after breakfast, so now I am ready for these small rituals.

I never heard of this person.

I was busy this morning. It rained all morning and heavily at times. The rains have stopped though there might be some showers heading this way. The streets are wet and it's doubtful it will dry off by the time I want to go bike riding. I didn't go yesterday because it rained all day.

I'm scheduled an appointment at the Urologist office next week. I'm not sure if I will see the Urologist. It's an appointment to receive treatment from a Nurse. I sent the Urologist a message this morning asking if I can see him for consultation. He was away all of last week. I got my urology results from last week and have questions on some items. The results were overall good but some flaws in it. It's happened before.

Sometime we just have those day.

I hope the illness goes away for you soon.

I been trying to stay busy and out of everyone way.

I did much better today than the last few days. I'm much less depressed. Physically, I don't feel so hot.

It's a program for keeping one's house clean with minimal effort. I like her "morning ritual" and "go to bed ritual". The rest I want to do in my own tempo, not hers. Neither do I want all her e-posts.

I feel OK this morning. It is the eight day of my observaton period (self made program). Am satisfied with my progress. Have walking in the snow at my plans for today and buying some groceries pluss writing Christmas cards. We still follow the tradition of writing cards in my family. A cute and lovely tradition.

Thank you for explaining.

Yesterday went pretty good, and I thought my "episode" was over. I figured I had pulled up out of the tailspin . . . like I always do, eventually. No. It wasn't over. I'm in the pit. Been in the pit all day. Still wearing my nightgown.

Christmas decorations all over the floor and sofa. No interest in finishing getting my house nice for Christmas.

I’m glad that everything has worked out.

Nothing has worked out.

I'm sorry Rose!

[Rosi700]

I am OK. Feel that it is helpful to have some items that I observe. Since I am observing, I want to do it well, so it is motivating to me. Today I have voluntary work at my plan.
