No, you're not. I sometimes sit and play stupid computer games too instead of getting myself moving. It will pass, I'm sure. Hang in there.

No, fill in with watch TV which I only do when I'm too listless and lazy to do chores or read or any of the other thousand things I need to do! LOL 🙋🏻 I keep running computer scrabble games going for my mind all day and night so I don't consider them a waste of time. Most of them challenge me. LOL 😂

I will think of things I need to be doing - rake some leaves, wash off the front porch so I can put a water seal on before the rainy season, clean out litter boxes. Lots of times I only have enough energy to THINK about what I need to do. Today I made myself do at least one of things that needed to get done, get the blower out and blow the leaves off the back deck. Took about 5 minutes. Sometimes I make a list and commit to at least one or two of the items, but TOMORROW, not today.

You know I have had my year of stress related events, Jeri. Computer games are my go to for mindless activity especially when I am physically and mentally tired. It's all good. You'll be back to yourself. Try to get some rest.

Mindless is what I needed yesterday. Woke up this morning with some clarity. Those reading this who know me may remember my background is leaving 2 DH's who turned abusive, that has been a huge battle for me to feel good about myself. One I left in 1996 the other in 2006, so it has been awhile.
I've been in this funky mood since the cleaning intervention Labor Day weekend at my exes"; actually my old house. It triggered lots of flashbacks from old abuse from 2 exes over the past 2 weeks on top of other stresses. Time to again face the old demons and go on with my life that is now good. I know the scars will never go away but the strength to not let the scars rule my life is there. I have battled them down before and will do it again. I am alive and my life is good.

I can relate ... glad you are better today. Perhaps give the old house a miss next time there is a cleaning intervention. It's not your problem, is it? Take care of you.
