Re: not coping

Thanks for asking @outlander I struggle, till I move on just wish I could be normal what ever that is at the moment cleaning and throwing crap out drinking beer, having an afternoon of trying to do a list of shite I wrote my self a month ago to do, won't get most of it done but becasuse I have started I go to the next thing if you know what I mean, it's just hard to start and not get carried away staying on the plan, blah blah :ok_hand:

Re: not coping

I am sure you can @outlander you are putting so much time and effort into your assignments

Just cleaned out S's room. He seems to not know what a laundry basket is and just puts all his dirty clothes on the floor!!! Think I might start charging him to clean his room 😒

Re: not coping

yes i can relate @Clawde i am good at trying to catch up on everything! perhaps just do the most important things then you can cross them off your list and work on the other less important things.

Re: not coping

Just doing some things around the house @outlander

We are going out for tea for a friends daugther's 18th. She was meant to be having a party tonight but can't becasue of covid so just a few are going out for tea. Not that I really want to. Would rather just curl up in bed in my pj's!!! Least it is only about a 5 min drive from our house.

Have you got many plans for tomorrow?
