Today I started clearing out mom’s house. Not much, some pots I wanted, tossed some old food in the freezer, a couple of dead plants I keep forgetting to water, some expired meds, moved some stuff from the main rooms to the third bedroom which is being used for storage. Mom left her home to my 2 daughters who are both away at work and school but are moving back here after graduation so I need to get it ready for them. Mom passed in 2023 and I wasn’t mentally/emotionally ready to tackle it for awhile. Plus we had to take care of dh’s brother and mom, both passed in 2023, 2024 and we still have a lot of their stuff to deal with now. Some stored at mom’s and must be moved out. It will be easier now that some time has passed and we aren’t as emotionally attached to everything.

Bama, having some emotional distance does IMHO, really aid the decluttering process. Maybe you could tackle the easier things first, and leave the keepsake type stuff I til later?

Tracking WHEN i eat is starting to feel somewhat normal. I did it for 22 days in December and now 13 days in January so a total of 35 days.
There is a part of me that continues to be surprised this is working for me. I still don't like to use the fasting word so I have to be careful how I think about it. Maybe if I was doing it for religious reasons I would feel differently.

Healthy Habits that are my goals.
* Heal up on each foot while making coffee balance.
* Stretching rotating half circle twisting action a few min. really helps my back.
* Walks
* Stat. bike on inclement weather days.
* off the floor exercise & stretch with opposite arm out and leg out.

Thank you for the kind words and understanding, kittykatt and Lady Maverick.

Made mashed potatoes with horseradish tonight. I’ve never had horseradish in them before, it’s good, a little tangy.
