patty, some of those small chores can trigger huge projects. Pace yourself!
I'm glad I connected with the across-the-street neighbors with those Thanksgiving desserts. They've had a rough couple of weeks with a water leak and the sewer line needing repair. A sweet respite of desserts delivered when they're feeling down from all of the upcoming work - on their dime - before the insurance company will pay to restore the house. Oy.
This afternoon I decluttered past work baggage. Rather than fuss with the burning barrel (usable now that we've had good rains) I shredded pages from two binders that kept track of hours on various tasks. I don't need those breadcrumbs to my past.
