I'm with Calli. I am good with all parts of laundry through folding...but then the "putting away" stymies me.

I have found the best time for me to get anything done in the kitchen is while I am microwaving something else. Because then I'm like "Oh, I'll just clean dishes for the 4 minutes while that heats up". And half the time that's enough to get them done, and the other half I'll be like 'Well, I just have one dish left, I'll do that and then get it out of the microwave"

The carrying and bending part if laundry is what's making it difficult for me at the moment.

I totally do that! Making and reheating the coffee is pretty much how my dishwasher gets emptied.

Oh yes, coffee! That's the other kitchen thing I do stuff during. It's like, I'm not a morning person BUT that's when I tend to do the dishes, because I"m already in the kitchen, waiting...

Maybe that's why I like Marie Kondo's book so much. She treats everything as if it has a spirit, which comes rather naturally to me.

Same here.

I do things during commercials. Dishes, tidy up, etc.

I very rarely watch anything live anymore, so I don't really do the tidying during commercials, but I need to do something.

I'm a little disappointed that there is still snow here; I was hoping for a snow free vacation.

Today seems to have turned out well. Shocking!

I watch most stuff on Hulu, which has commercials.

So this morning I was feeling oddly light and buoyant for me, and I thought… my god. Am I happy? Have I turned a corner with SAD and my normal depression? Did I really release some trauma in pigeon pose last night? And then two hours later I t was like Hiro switched out my Tadashi chip and I was like BAYMAX KILL. I couldn't think, I couldn't focus on one of the simplest and one of my favorite work tasks (denailing lumber), I literally had to bite down on my tongue to keep from snapping at a coworker with whom I normally jive with super well… who knows where this is going? Yep. PMS. That mild euphoria thing was super weird though, not something I usually get.

Ginger, thanks for the tips. I've been on iron supplements for six months, towards the end in amounts that risk iron poisoning for someone who is not anemic. No I don't know what kind I have. Still fighting to get my test results. Also don't know what is wrong with my kidneys. The creatin tests my primary did were great. But apparently there is a direct test of kidney function that shows it is not functioning within normal range. I think I have to get a new hematologist. Whatever his medical skills, his communication skills are zero.

Also, I will try to get a nephrologist
