Well yesterday didn't go to plan, was just too tired.
Can't do any more laundry until the pods come through the post (laundry subscription)
Did change the bedding at least yesterday and got most of the washing up done.

Today I'll try to finish the washing up, get my meal plan done.
My meal plan is: I have things for 12 months now, some of it will be good for x months or years still. And to figure out what i have, when it expires, and what to do with it. I wont allow myself to get groceries today or tomorrow until I start using what i have in stock and just accept that's what i drink/eat.

Tuesday, woke up at 9 am ish.
Felt productive, but got only 25 to 30% done.

Just waiting for groceries now (im so weak), but i hope to food prep a bit.

Had some delicious soup this morning for breakfast haha.

I really have to get a box today and start going through it. And see what I can do in the last room that I need to still do. I still have 50% to do in there. But it's a 50% I don't want to do :(

I have to make a plan fro that for June I guess.

Maybe you can add old groceries to the new ones and still use up what you have

Yep, I try to check what I have so I know what I am missing and then add that first to the list. This way I save money and resources.

I haven't cleaned at all, this morning I have been cleaning online. haha. I have cleaned up the forums a bit now that we've upgraded to the new version.

Sleep has been terrible, my body keeps complaining i am alive. So, i tried to sleep, I tried to distract my mind. I want to leave the apartment, be a normal and healthy person again but I notice I am slowly falling apart. The weather unfortn. is quite terrible. So walks and bikes, and balcony breakfasts etc are meh. So focussed a bit on the forums to allow the day to warm up.

I have to stay home as well because I have fresh coffee arriving today. I will in between 'computering', doing some tidying and cleaning up.

Hi,

I just revamped my wardrobe today. I deep cleaned my closet and drawers, reorganized my clothing based on colors, removed clothes that I haven't touched in a year. I have done a few mix and match and the outcome has been simply awesome. I am just surprised at my own creativity. No wonder necessity is the mother of invention. My closet and drawers look so clean with neatly arranged clothes. Most of the clothes that I pulled out have gone back into the closet excepting a few that do not fit me anymore. I have spent so much of my time selecting these clothes each time at the clothes store. I just don't feel like letting go of my favorite ones, some of which I have certain sentimental attachment. Funny though, each time I plan to clear up and I end up having everything back into my closet in a different arrangement. May be some day I will learn to let go..........

I did this last year... my colour order is... grey, black, white, pink! Also split my Spring/Summer and my Autumn/Winter wardrobes up.

I've kept a few small bits in the hope I'll fit back into them one day!
