Impossible. Impossible things. Impossible requests. Impossible decisions. Impossible schedules. Impossible appointments. Everyday, I am doing something impossible. I do not know sometimes how I actually did something, how I accomplished getting paperwork in for probate, or got account information together. How did I grade those papers and complete that spreadsheet? How did I squeeze in physical therapy and getting to my appointment on time? I know, that just like you, I am completing tasks that I must do, but I’m always worried that I’m going to space out on them. Somehow things are getting accomplished- for the class I’m taking, the job I have, my health, the responsibilities I have for family, and in other areas. For someone who basically wants to sit around drinking coffee and relaxing, or sit around being entertained, I do get a lot done. My house is messy but the laundry is done. I am not a powerhouse by any means, I don’t have as much physical stamina as I used to. I am actually tired of doing most of the things I’m required to do. To help myself get out the door easily each day, I no longer wear eye makeup, because not only do I have to put it on, I have to take it off at night. If my clothes are wrinkled I fold them nicely and place them under the sofa cushions so the weight of the cushions with a sitter on top, me and/or Sandy, will press them out. I buy canned soups and beans for my lunches, easy to fix. My shoes are mostly near the front door. Off I go. Someday, my schedule and duties will be greatly simplified. Sooner rather than later, please. Things are impossible right now.
