Good morning everyone, hope you all are doing fine today.
Just another day around here, got up this morning at a fairly normal time of 7:30 am I did get to sleep about 2 am so it was a nice 5 and a half hours of sleep. It’s raining out still, we have had rain since Saturday night. I had seen on the news this morning that Chicago area has had a lot of flooding.
I think today I will be vacuuming the house, I am unsure of when I vacuumed last, I want to say last week Tuesday but not sure since all the days are blending into one long day. I know I am not the only one with this problem, I hear it all the time. We all have to do what we can to make sure we are keeping track of time and not letting our minds play tricks on us.
Well I am going to get to getting and I shall return in a while, take care till then.

Glad at least you got a chunk of sleep. I consider 3 hours of solid sleep lucky! After many warm days, we are actually having rain today. Remember how I mentioned "routine"? We are doing get-it-yourself breakfasts on weekdays as we were before . . . and only having the breakfasts with the works on weekends (when Hubby cooks) as we were before. That has helped to sort out the days and give us something to look forward to "on weekends". Plus we don't pig out this way 
. In fact, I am having my green tea right now . . . we'll have coffee on the weekend

It is supposed to rain here and I am really hoping for it. There may be a storm, and again I'm hoping for that too. We were too hot the past two days.
I just vacuumed a few days ago, but I need to again since I've kicked up lots of dust.. Honestly, I need to either get a cord for my mini vac or break down and buy a new one because it would come in handy.
Happy Cleaning!

@Bensen32 Well that's all that really matters, I suppose.

Stupid me drank two glasses of Dr. Pepper last night, and the caffeine kept me up half the night. I finally nodded off somewhere around 1am, but had to be up for work at 4am. So a lovely 3 hours of sleep. Maybe that's why my Monday was so bad today! lol

@Bensen32 And to make matters worse, I took a cat nap when I got home from work late this afternoon, which means I'll be up late again tonight.

Good morning! It's good that you're back to normal (both when it comes to getting up and when it comes to vacuuming) I'm great now, the headache has finally stopped, I'm drinking coffee and waiting for the rain ..

We're both lost and trying to get back on track. It's a crazy time for sure.

So you didn't get any of the flooding there at your home or city? Deb lives in Chicago I hope she's doing fine.
You can get a calendar and mark off the days to help you remember. I work and even then I get mixed up sometimes but not as much as everyone else might.

It is true that this lockdown period causes people to loose track of time, you should exercise mindfulness to avoid it.
Have a good day while finishing your vacuuming.
