In reply to changing sheets counts as chore, errand ,exercise (nm), posted by JadeKelly on January 26, 2009, at 0:46:21
Jane,
I think its important to update these lists for you, but also the next person. I wish someone had said do one of these and your good to go, I could have avoided loads of unnesary guilt, not to mention laundry. Here's the additions:
As the subject line says: we have decided that changing sheets counts as a chore (it is) an errand (it can be) and excersize.
And as Dinah pointed out, I forgot the most important thing, try to stay connected to your loved ones. I found this to be difficult as we all had suffered recent losses and I didn't want to lean on people who needed to lean on someone themselves. But thats unusual. Stay in touch with family, hopefully you are lucky and they are close by. If not, a phone call away.
So if you see this let us know how you are, did the list help, I'm thinking of writing the next phase for myself. Although even tho I feel pretty great lately, one step at a time. Hard to break 2 year old habits.
Best to you-let us know how you are!!
