My update....
« on: October 02, 2018, 04:01:13 am »
I've been tidying up, donating stuff to thrift stores, shredding stuff...this is waaay overdue - I'm in a tiny seniors apartment with not much room.

I shredded a lot of stuff, like bills for furniture I bought in 1993!  :o  I also gave Office Depot a lot of stuff or recycling, like cables, mice.

I have a little more room because I ditched my old double bed, and got a "twin" one.

I'm much smarter at storing stuff.  A lot of stuff I have doesn't need to be "on display."  I got a lot of paperwork when I retired...I'll almost never refer to it, so I can put it away in a box.


BUT.....I was going to tidy up some more today, but I froze  - I was completely "freaked out" by all the work I have to do.  I felt really bad that I froze.

I should pat myself on the back by making a list of my many recent apartment improvements.

Sounds to me like you're doing a great job, Peter  :)

I found a success log helps. OCD is notorious for planting false thoughts in our minds and for being a critical bully. Sitting down and writing all my accomplishments made me see just how much I've gotten done despite this nagging bully in my brain.

Keep up the good work and you don't feel like doing anything once in a while, no biggie. It will still be there tomorrow.
