Decluttering and home maintenance
When MI crisis happens, keeping house can take low priority. But having a messy house can further dent what is often an already low self esteem. Build up of grime follows and rodents have a field day in inaccessible places.
Getting that 2 minute job done (that has been annoying you for years) can lift ones spirit.
I have slowly been decluttering and tidying up our house. The progress made thus far has been achieved primarily by persistently dealing with one item a day.
What has often kept me going has been the encouragement from others @Faith-and-Hope, @Smc @Determined @Shaz51
This tip passed on to me today. Hang all your clothes in the wardrobe with the hanger back to front. As you wear them, return them with the hanger the right way round. In 6-12 months review all items that remain on back to front hangers with a view to donating/selling them.
That also meant I only visited them on the first day there, as I was very obviously unwell by the next day. Not wise taking contagious diseases into an aged care home... hopefully no-one picked it up off me that first day.
