bumbling through a jumbled week
Tuesday, 5 May 2026 11:05 amGood Morning, you Beautiful People!
Today is normally the day for all the errands, followed by laziness, but I had to pick up the dog food and groceries yesterday due to some faulty planning and some dog food going bad. Since we have added a kibble to Ted's FreshPet for digestive health, we've decided to just transition him to the kibble, and let go of the food that needs refrigeration. He will still be getting broth, egg, or a dash of doggy-safe leftovers added to his meals, so he shouldn't get bored with the kibble, and his tummy seems to be happier now. We have been using the same kibble that his vet/doggy day care uses, so that also means when we do have to take him to the kennel, we won't have to pack up food for him.
So anyway, back to today -- due to the errand split, the week is now a bit jumbled. Today, I'll be taking care of some returns, and resupplying the OTC meds. I usually do budget work on Monday, but I skipped that, and I'm going to hold that off until tomorrow. I started updated passwords a couple of weeks ago, and I'd like to finish that before focusing on the budget. The current bank balance covers the upcoming auto-paid bills, so it can wait another day or two. I did complete the most important task for today: paying the personal property task, so that's a good thing.
The other thing that I'm working on today is prepping donations. To be completely honest, I really just want to toss it all the garbage and just be done with it. I think I'm going to be brutal on the decision-making -- anything that isn't absolutely pristine will be tossed. I just want to get this extraneous stuff out of the house -- it is feeling very heavy to me right now.
I still have appointments to schedule. I should probably do that now, before I head out to do the errands. I really hate calling to schedule appointments. In AA terms, it's definitely one of my "defects." I don't know how much of it is ADHD brain and how much of it is GAD brain, but dang, my brain really hates making phone calls, particularly the ones for setting appointments.
Oh well, I guess it's time to start getting things done! I hope you find something beautiful in your day, and as always, thank you for being here.
