All those sounds can be very comforting when our brains can't take in any more information. We were going to do the crabgrass/fertilizer treatment on the lawn yesterday but we had snow and a little more today, so that will wait until this coming weekend. We're due to be close to 60 by Wednesday I believe, so that will feel like spring. The dogs got a good walk around the neighborhood and I look forward to going back to our park for our jaunts again. =o)dalbador1https://www.blogger.com/profile/09877799102438622117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-18793737048065940732018-04-09T10:05:27.391-04:002018-04-09T10:05:27.391-04:00My weekend was pretty low key.

The old ones were starting to impact my hips and glutes. Then we had friends over for dinner Sunday. I made fresh bread from scratch for that.<br /><br />I just went through a pretty heavy depression that forced me into seeking help. One thing that my therapist encouraged me to do when I really didn't feel like doing anything, including eating or leaving my house, was to create a task list for the day. Lots of small tasks. I only had to accomplish one thing on the list before I could go back to hibernating for a while like I wanted. Once I accomplished one thing it was easier to do two, but I only had to do one. At the end of the day I had to review what I completed on my task list and journal how I felt about it. I found that having that list and marking stuff helped me see that I did accomplish some things during the day and helped me feel a little bit better about myself. He also reinforced that it was okay that I didn't complete everything on the list. I could just try to do more the next day if I was capable.Browrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01661145494625869227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7381223979507114346.post-34955950061998272812018-04-09T08:44:21.164-04:002018-04-09T08:44:21.164-04:00A walk outside in the park sounds really nice.

I had planned to do some spring clean-up in the yard over the weekend, but time just got away from me and now it'll have to be next weekend instead. You just do what you need to do to get through each day, other people will just have to wait.

Grocery weekend sucks most of the time but we got it all done in spite of not being motivated to do so and we're set for another couple of weeks of eating right. Have a great week everyone!The Mr.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04233628447251244134noreply@blogger.com
