It’s the kind of day where I have to wind it up reminding myself I did something worthwhile, and did not waste everything.

So. 3 things I accomplished:

  1. I initiated getting out of the house together for a couple things we haven’t done in months: taco Tuesday OUT (and eaten outside at their tables which we almost never do because it is not cozy safe or contained enough for me and the feeling of air touching me is distracting but today it was a pleasant success) and a watefront mill WALK.
  2. Over 12k steps today (in spite of headache & blindingly bright & sweaty sun)
  3. Called my mom (good thing too because she has COVID and wasn’t going to tell me if I hadn’t called her)
  4. Started the dishes
  5. FINISHED the dishes
  6. Took out the glass plastic aluminum recycling
  7. Journaled. At least three times I turned to pen and paper to get the thoughts out the spin cycle in my head.

I also remembered to practice my “thinking, doing, or resting” awareness & refocusing tool.

And I came up with more than three things to feel proud of, and feel better and more ready for sleep now.
