To do… chaotic.

Okay, so I made my to do list. Step one: fold clothes. Done. Second: hang up washed clothes. After I folded them, I moved the clothes rack, to vacuum under. After that, I emptied some boxes of stuff my ex packed with my and the kids stuff. In order to do so, I had to clean the kids rooms and remove some old or broken toys. Then I decided to donate some stuff from the boxes, throw away some and so on. Now, the house is chaotic because of all the stuff from the boxes. I have new boxes with donation stuff, garbage bags with you know, garbage, and the clothes? Folded on the table and wet clothes are still in the machine 🤦🏻‍♀️ can anyone relate?

I can relate. My wife had significant health issues that caused her to go into a deep, deep depression. I felt like I was a single dad for about three years. She is much better today but still struggles with depression now and then. My thoughts now are tying to sort through that experience and recover. This year getting ready for the Fourth of July since I had some family coming over, I found myself very anxious because everything was a mess inside and outside my home. I walked outside to clean up but then walked back inside because of my anxiety. Up to this point in my life I have never experienced that before. I actually got to work the next day and got it done but I then realized I had a problem which is one of the reasons I came to this app.

I completely relate. Sometimes I just zone out and not think about what I’m doing so that I don’t get distracted. 🫡

Completely relatable 😫 I have many a chaos box...we moved house on 1 April this year...there's still boxes I half unpacked or unpacked and "organised" into chaos boxes dotted in rooms that I don't go in very often

Also- I do stuff in the same way- creating chaos by spinning from one partly finished chore to the next ~ So at 11:30am I came upstairs after spending an hour in the basement- tackling the chaos there to assemble a storage shelf we bought last November after I urgently needed it to create a tidy space- unpacked it in January I think, And of course to have a clean start I went ahead to use the broom 🧹 and collect all the dirt on the floor- it was worth it! So then I brought down all of the boxes filled to the rim with winter clothes (waiting in the living area since May already 🤷‍♀️)
