today was a hard day. I have been working with dd youngers stuff (just pulling stuff out and separating it for her to look at - so many decisions)
I am emptying her room so it can be washed down.

I think I only have her keepsakes in the basement to pull upstairs for her to go through.
Trying to put everything in one spot.
I had planned on putting a new rug or wood floors but just had to put $850 on my card. 2 weeks from now they are coming back to repair the outside for mice.

I feel better - Tuesday, I was drained by decision and action fatigue even if it was only 2 hours. i knew there was a problem when i had decision paralysis and feeling overwhelmed. I felt drained well into Wednesday morning. not good.

Thank goodness I use my timer and work hard not to do all or nothing thinking or decision making during this time.

Boy I am glad that this will not be an issue again until next Tuesday. one hour is the goal so i don't get drained.
I could make a plan of attack again this morning. now I know what to do next in that area.

dh and I have been getting good at decision making during the regular week. such as when we open a drawer and see something that shouldn't be there or needs to go, we do it right away.

But boy am I glad that last Tuesday is over. no more analysis paralysis 8-) I know I will probably get stressed all over again next week; but, hopefully not as bad as I have a plan of attack. lol. ;) :D

dh took our clutter (one small bag) to the donation place and tossed the one large black bag of garbage. It is making me re think my spending habits.
