So brainy people, here’s where I am today. I WANT to get things done, either cleaning, or yard stuff, or knitting. I KNOW I will feel better if I do any of this. But it feels like my brain is screaming on the inside OH MY GOD IT IS TOO MUCH, JUST SIT DOWN AND WATCH THINGS. But then I try saying to my brain (because it feels very separate from me) “But, we’ll feel better and not spiral about wasting the whole weekend. We already did nothing all day yesterday.” And then I my whole body feels like I might actually have a full on toddler meltdown.
I’ve showered and lean two errands while I had the car, that broke through the brain a bit. I stayed on my feet to get dishes washed, recycling out, 1 load of laundry in, and 2 rooms roombaed. (2 of those are passive cleaning which are much easier).
But then I sat down and now it’s been an hour.
You’ve done a lot, msbelle. Listen to your brain and give yourself a break!
Sometimes your brain conspires with your body to make you take a break. Taking a weekend needs to be on the To Do list too.
Timelies all!
Happy Fathers Day to all the Buffista fathers and father figures! We took Gary's dad out to dinner. (went to a nice pizza place because Mr. S wanted pizza as he always does.)
I had pizza yesterday, too. One of those fun little ones.
It took me into the evening to get around to it due to laziness, but I finally installed my triflora hanging planter in the kitchen. My first use of power tools in the new house seems to be a success, and only sweat was involved, not tears or blood!
I'm thinking catnip for one of the pots and basil or mint for another. Any recommendations for a flower that will do well indoors in a 3" pot?
Today we celebrate Cass! Happy birthday, Cass! I hope you are having a beautiful day and that the year to come is filled with delight.
It was a very nice birthday yesterday. Thank you.
Yes, it is a Monday, but there is still cause to celebrate! It is the day we send happy birthday wishes to P.M. Marc! I hope the day is filled with fun and that the world spoils you. May the year to come bring an abundance of joy.
and only sweat was involved, not tears or blood!
Another cause for celebration!
Happy Juneteenth! JZ has the day off.
Happy Birthday to Pleiades!
