Ffs my body is frustrating sometimes. It's only noon and I'm already depleted of energy and at my maximum pain threshold. All I did today was pay rent and make some phone calls
#i needed to get some cleaning done this weekend but my body wouldn't let me then or today#and theta's out of town for another 2 days#i think it was the laundry on thursday that broke me#it's normally theta's job bc u have to go up and down stairs to get to the laundry machines and my knees are brutal#and I have a maximum carry limit of ten pounds#theta was sweet enough to get all the then-laundry done before she left but that was 2 weeks ago#and in addition to the clothes that accumulated in that time I also got ThredUp card for xmas and had a huge haul delivered#and it all needed to be washed#AND two of them ended up being handwash only! but I'm glad I did it bc the sweater was deceptively dirty#I soaked and stirred it around a bucket of cold water and detergent and thought that was that at first#but when I hung it up in the shower to drip/air dry I realized the water dripping down was rusty brown?? the sweater was gray. ew#it took TWO days of soaking and wringing and stirring and dunking the sweater in and out of constantly changed water for it to run clear#ew#wash your clothes before you donate people it's not that hard#anyway I did the first half of all THAT on the same day of doing laundry and I think I overtaxed myself#bc I didn't listen to my body and tried to get it all done but now I'm being forcibly rebooted. and I'm a 90s computer so it's taking days#don't do as I do#chronic pain#chronic exhaustion#disability#chronic illness#rest or your body will MAKE you rest
