I actually did some housework last night and it sure feels good to have done something productive, even if it was small. I did some laundry (having fresh towels is nice) and I changed my sheets (I do this a little too infreqenly - shhhh, please don't tell my mom!). I even did some dishes.
Then, I got up 30 minutes earlier this morning so that I could do some writing. Yes! I did some creative writing today! I've now got those post-noon droopy eyes, but I'm feeling good about doing something positive for myself.
Housework is *not* one of my strong suits - not by far. I don't know what it is but I loathe doing housework. And yet - and yet I like a clean house. How strange I must be. I think it comes down to the requirement of it - meaning that if someone were to tell me that housework was completely optional, then I think I might be more inclined to do it.
I also continued in my reading of Listening and Caring Skills, I'm now 29% through. Still talking about body language but combining it with how to "read" someone so that you (the listener) can come back with an intelligent assessment of how they are feeling. I think this is going to take practice but will be useful.
