Hi, haven't been around for awhile. I was reminded of the board when I ran across a recent podcast by Reinhard.
Yes, I am also flagging. I feel ya!
Yes, that has included some stress cleaning, but I figure it's better than other ways to cope! Besides, you get a clean environment out of it, so that's not too bad.
Since this board is all about habits, when thinking about habits and rough times, I'm minded of Victorian people dressing for dinner when on the battlefield in a tent or keeping a timetable under siege or something.
The fiction I used to read would make fun of their rigidity. I'm not so sure but that they weren't on to something. You know, eat regular meals, have at least a loose schedule, get dressed. I'm not saying you need to put on a suit to work at your desk at home. (I'm in slacks, a long-sleeved t-shirt and a wool shawl 'cause it's cold where I live). But I have "day clothes" that are as comfy as jammies, and still mean that it's daytime and I do daytime things, if that makes the slightest sense.
And I want to just about CHEW THROUGH THE DOOR because I want to travel, darn it! Just, get on a train and see my family, for pity's sake! *SNARL* *ARGH*
This is tough. I mean yeah, this is hard.
We can do hard things. Maybe not LIKE doing hard things, but darn it, we can do them!
