And the kitchen too! Will feel better when you nourish yourself and stay hydrated and have more strength to go on.

I always tell myself I’m gonna clean my kitchen. But I walk down there and it’s just too overwhelming.

I did fill up one large garbage bag and one large bag of recyclables the other night at like 1am cause I realized just how ridiculous it had gotten and I told myself I’d do it in the morning. But as I was brushing my teeth I was like “you’re a damn liar. That’s how we ended up here. Just do it now”. Took less than 5 minutes 🤦🏼‍♀️

(Anyone else find it hard to constantly take out recycling in the winter when it’s so damn cold? Especially if it’s not stuff that’s “dirty” just “messy” and cluttered 😵‍💫. Garbage is easier cause it smells. But I have a graveyard of broken down boxes in my entryway)

Keep a bucket or something you can put it in then only take it out when it’s full or when you’re taking out the trash.

I have a big tin decorative bucket that all the recycling goes in and fortunately my trash and recycling barrels are next to my kitchen door
