Maybe you shouldn't take it day by day. Maybe you should find something comfortable for you that you can handle like hour by hour. Train yourself to accomplish all that you can in that hour and when it's up start over. I know from experience one has to train themselves to enjoy life by looking for each good thing the minutes, not the days bring us. And don't try to mold yourself after "everyone else" and be embarressed. You are responsible only for your own happiness and life. Of course your family, if you have children, play a large part in your life so you must consider them but while you are at it train them to have a possitive outlook on their lives as well as on yours. A very good day to you.

Thank you cherokeewoman, wise words you had...

I wish I knew too.

cherokee, I came on to give advice and ended up getting it.lol. Great advice.

srosie, I have a dear friend here at home who is always doing something. Every moment of every day she is doing something. I listen to her and I get frustrated,envious,you name it. Lets listen to what cherokee said. If it doesnt pan out we know who to look for.lol. It will get better. I feel like you do alot. I finally pushed myself yesterday and I got quite a bit done. I didnt feel like doing anything but I got up and did it. I can honestly tell you..my body hurts now from all of the things I accomplished but I feel so good for just getting it done. Take care.

all i can do is eat sleep and go to work for the big $8 an hour and there's not much effort there.

Cherokeewoman, is right. Even on my best days I never measure up to some workaholics I know. That's just how it is. I'm just better at relaxing than them. lol. Seriously, some people simply can't just stop and rest. We all go at our own paces and remember, alot of those people who get tons and tons of stuff done are running from their own problems by drowning them in work.

This morning I got the "you just don't want to do anything", and this time, it was truly unwarrented. Still, pissed me off just the same.

i don't i do my life. I'm completely and utterly self absorbed. Since I'm alone right now it pretty much works out to my advantage but...ahh i'll cross that bridge when i come to it lol

HOnestly, right now it's a struggle for me. For 2 wks now I let the laundry pile up all week (eek!). I spent all day yesterday catching up, but still it sits folded in the darn laundry room. I do the minimum too. I look at a million things waiting on me and just do what I have to to get by.

Some days are better than others but right now I'm looking around and thinking hmmmmm I haven't done anything in awhile (cleaning wise) but I have a cold and it's the last thing I want to do. I always felt guilty too but I had to stop that worrying about others opinions or I was gonna go crazy. I was just killing myself with shame. Cherokee was right on! Give yourself a pat on the back that you are in front of the computer rather than in bed! Thats what I start doing. If I make it to the computer at least I'm out of the bed.
