Painted edge on top of wall, removed tape.
Painted top of plank, removed tape.
Painted bottom of plank, removed tape.
Cleaned up after me, and no idea how I am doing the bottom of the wall with these eyes without lying down on the floor. But after this break I will go and figure it out.
After this, a break! And then i can use the roller to do the top half of the wall and then another break and bottom of the wall.

The room is empty ! (for 90%)
The floor is clean ! (for 90%)
The spider webs etc are sorted (for 100%)
Dust and crap is removed (for 90% ??)
The green tape etc placed, edges painted ,and removed .. (100%)
The top and bottom of the wall rolled - all painted (100%)
I can finally pick things up again from my todo list and maybe complete the list I started for this month.
Also, I am dead inside. I'd love to pick a nice color, have 2 layers of paint, do ceiling and walls, etc. But, i just can't.. i have no help, no money. This is just what i have to accept the situation is.
I couldn't find the coughk gun or however you type that, so couldn't fix the holes, and I am seriously out of paint as well. So, another day.

Monday, UGH 
Okay, I have cleaned the kitchen, tiny bit in bathroom, put dirty clothes in washing machine. I've cleaned out the tiny room, and I've put clean clothes on the bed in the bedroom and closed the door (out of sight out of mind) and I've cleaned the toilet and the sinks.
The stove is dirty, but no time to scrub, so closed it.
Gathered the trash, i have 2 bags full, I guess I can go throw that out now. But wait, should I shower first, and I need to ch.. yeah Ill go shower, change clothes, start laundry and then throw trash out.
Then I can rest, the paint in the room has dried! I think it looks good. not gonna do a second layer.
After 3pm my niece is dropping off chairs. And then DHL tonight with coffee!
Okay, shower first, bye

I just go up, did some offline organizing, and now I am ready to start the day.
Today's unfortn. all about online stuff as a digital deadline is nearby.
What I have been doing the last few days is: Don't put it down: put it away
This helped me to do things like: Don't put the mug and spoon down, instead, wash it, dry it, and put it away.
My kitchen is better, the bathroom looks better, etc. My upkeep is a little less.
Hopefully you find the motivation to do 5 little things so you can look back and go "I did more than I thought I would"

Wow, lots of stuff nix!
I have done a lot of the online stuff I need to do, now i have 2 hours to waste. So taking a break, emptied the almost empty little room. And mopped the floor one more time with special stuff for laminate floors. It is drying now. After that when I have time I can unpack the plastic wrap from the closet i got for storing plates, cups etc, and it will have to go to that room, i have no space for it anywhere else. And I guess if I am smart I wipe off the closet once, in case of animals or dust or whatever. Not sure what else to do with it - then I can finally start using it. This also clears up some space in the livingroom thankfully.

Thursday already.
Here I am, pretending life is fine. it's fine. we're fine, you're fine. im fine... it's fine.
Let's clean some stuff as a distraction so Friday is here sooner.
The closet from the farm is in the little room, it fits with half an inch left. Crazy. Phew, so lucky.
If I run into things that can go in there I will clean it and put it in there.
I checked the plank and the storage boxes I got could fit five on them, so I ordered two more yesterday that could arrive today or tomorrow. I am ready now that the plank is reviewed, cleaned, and the wall behind it is painted and clean. I mean, I am ready to put the boxes there. So I can get a "old" box and review the items, clean it, trash some of it and store it in that box on the plank. And start to make room in the livingroom again.
There are some metal drawers for storing papers and stuff, small things. I think I have 2, maybe even 3 or 4 of them. I can these in that room as well. So if I run into pictures or paintings i dont want to hang i could consider and check if they fit in there.

Friday it is. And I just woke up to bad news, so I have -500 motivation and not sure how to get through the day, so to avoid me trying to fix and clean things and getting angry and redecorating the place by throwing everything I can lift, .. I will not do anything today probably.

Update:
I've gathered up trash in the kitchen and put it in the bag, I have enough that when I go check mail later I can take the trash with me downstairs. Then at least something is done.
You mentioned laundry, I will go check if I can start laundry.
DHL shows up tonight, I will have to get dressed around 5pm so i make a fool of myself.
There was a guy at the door offering to do my windows Once a month for 12,50, i said yes for once in my life, they come every first sunday of the month. So let them.. i dotn have to be home for it, and saves me having to upkeep the front. i asked: i can cancel at any time. When they are here early july i will ask them to do the back windows once, and then i dont have to do those until next year lol.
maybe it motivates me to do the inside of the windows the coming week.. sigh, who knows.
I have decided today since i dont do apartment stuff, that i will do minecraft stuff. i compressed 7 days of work into 1 workable 'but i gotta do it now' day, and converting the 1mb server to 1.17, we will skip 2nd phase of beta testing and dont do internal testing tomorrow, and just do public testing over the weekend. Then we will see monday if we stay on 1.17 or not. But that frees up time for me to do other things this weekend and next week.
I am trying to not let my brother dictate my life with this court case, and just let it go, i got the email from lawyer, fine, whatever, back to my own life..
So i have a distraction but i dont get offline distractions from cleaning that can go wrong and put the pressure on. i can stay calm this way.

What a busy weekend with the Minecraft upgrade, and it's not over.
But offline I've .. well, yeah: let's start again!
Some offline stress is behind me, I can let it go. So I can focus on me again.
TIme to try and find moments that work to make progress again before I fall back into depression and weeks of doing nothing.
There are things being delivered today, not sure which ones, but if it's the balcony thing then that's another step. Mini room, is the focus.
1 pm, oh boy..
