Accountability

Discombobulated · Apr 26, 2023 at 08:44 AM

How is everyone doing?

Today I am part way through:
1) Laundry

And now I need to:

2) Vaccum through
3) Dust bedroom

Actually I should do the dusting first.

I'm back now. I discovered today that accountability is a really good tool for me. Someone asked me what I was going to do today. I had been crying from feeling overwhelmed. I didn't know how to start. But I answered my friend and said I would be doing chores. The next thing I know I'm doing them. And I felt motivated. So now I want to come back to this group here and start it up again.

Today, I did the following:

1. Cleaned the kitchen.
2. Refilled the cats' dispensers.
3. Did self-care

Tomorrow, I want to:

1. Take a shower.
2. Clean litter boxes.
3. Mop my floor (I swept already)

I hope everyone is doing well. I look forward to seeing you again.

Deilla · Jul 10, 2023 at 09:00 PM

I was able to do the following:

1. Clean the litter box.
2. Mop the floor.

But I wasn't able to get a shower. I will try tomorrow:

1. Take a shower.
2. Clean more litter boxes.
3. Open Amazon boxes.

I hope everyone is well. Good luck with your tasks!

I took my shower finally. I was glad. I sort of forced myself by coloring my hair.

Tomorrow, I will:

1. Take another shower.
2. Mail an SD card.
3. And do pest control.

I hope everyone is doing well.

I did everything on my list but get another shower. It's hard. Today, I will:

1. Take out the trash.
2. Try to wash up.
3. Order groceries and put them away.

Best of luck to everyone!

Not been too motivated recently and not always getting done what should be but checking in to say I’m inspired by others progress!

Nammu · Jul 13, 2023 at 04:49 PM

Me either. I went to the botanical watercolor class at the library but that’s all I’ve done today. I’ve 5-6 boxes to unpack and a shower to take and dishes that aren’t going to wash themselves. I also need to sweep the kitchen and bathroom, vacuum the main area and pick up my clothes. Soooooo

Tonight I’ll wash dishes
Take a shower

Tomorrow

I’ll unpack 2 boxes
Sweep the bathroom
Pick up clothes

How’s that for a plan? 😃

Deilla · Jul 17, 2023 at 04:45 AM

I have been staying busy with my daily to-do list. I quit my job. So now I have more time to take care of myself, the house and the cats. Today, I will:

1. Open Amazon boxes.
2. Take out the trash.
3. Declutter

I hope everyone is well. Good luck on getting motivated. I know it's difficult. On top of these three tasks, I have to shower today. I have a vet appointment tomorrow.

Hoping everyone is doing okay and your new chapter in life is a better balance for you Deilla

I’m a bit random these days but I have managed to focus on repainting the front gate, it will need a second coat but will need to work around the weather - I’m feeling accomplished and that’s a good feeling.

Nammu · Jul 17, 2023 at 10:57 AM

Ooo I slacked off. Yesterday I did nothing.

Today is social day. I play mahjong for a couple hours and I need to wash the dishes.

MuseumGhost · Jul 17, 2023 at 02:00 PM

I love this concept for getting things done. I've been using lists for awhile now. It keeps me from getting distracted, and losing my motivation.

It's wise to go easy on yourself when you can't get everything done that you'd wish to do. So many things are just permanently tedious, mundane tasks --- and they can wait 'til you're better and have more energy.

Sending hugs!

Deilla · Aug 01, 2023 at 09:36 PM

My to-do list is keeping me busy. I spend a lot of time playing games. It's the only way I can cope. Tomorrow, I hope to:

1. Take a shower.
2. Do an hour of classwork.
3. Sleep through the night.

I hope everyone is well. Good luck with your tasks.

I am re- reading a favourite book, and today I read 2 chapters of it

also I did laundry and sorted out my fridge

Deilla · Aug 02, 2023 at 12:45 PM

The most important thing for me was to take my shower. I struggle with them. I did get my shower today. I did not sleep through the night. I don't know if I will have time for my class. I need a nap. I have chores to do around the house.

My sister A let me be accountable to her. I've been opening up about my struggles. So she is being really supportive. I have to take this one step further according to her and put my new outfit on. I will try. It just takes so much energy to put jeans on. I normally wear cotton pants. I have weight problems. I should get dressed and then go get a haircut. It will be a boost to my self-esteem.

Tomorrow, I will:

1. Go to the pharmacy.
2. Wash dishes.
3. Refill the cats' water dispenser.

I hope all of you are well. Good luck!

Deilla · Aug 03, 2023 at 01:54 PM

Again, I didn't sleep very well. So I've decided not to leave the house and go to the pharmacy. Maybe tomorrow will be better. I did wash the dishes and refilled the cats' water. So I feel good about that. Tomorrow, I will:

1. Take my cat to the vet.
2. Pick up my meds.
3. Clean a litter box.

I hope everyone is doing well with their tasks!

Deilla · Aug 06, 2023 at 10:41 AM

I picked up my meds from the pharmacy and took my cat to the vet. I also cleaned a litter box. I managed all this and a flat tire. Today, I want to shower. That's all I care about. I have been doing affirmations and reading words of encouragement. It's difficult for me to take a shower. I'm trying. I will show myself some compassion and be patient.

I hope everyone is well.

Deilla · Aug 07, 2023 at 08:03 PM

I couldn't shower and I couldn't pick up my car today. But tomorrow I plan to do those two things. That's all I can handle plus I just started working for my nephew. So work would be the third item.

I hope all of you are well. Good luck with your tasks and the different things you're working on.
