I didn't want to adult today, but I'm doing it.

Laundry is done and put away. Dryer is empty and both trash and recycling are down at the curb for tomorrow's pickup. My Apple Watch says it's 85 so I was sweating when I was done. Which is why, I'm seated in my office, while I cool down before doing the final projuct of the night (that's not a tube feed). Emptying the dishwasher. My body deserves a break once in a while from the labor entense bending that's involved. My body isn't used to doing all this. But, I've taken on a lot more. George will ask me on Monday and thuresday nights about taking the trash down to the curb. And, when I tell him I'll do it later, he seems to understand.
Water bill seems to have been paid, too. It's under 80 so I'm greatful for that. After I post this, I'll have to find something for George to watch on t.v.
Oh, and the most fun, someone called trying to get us to sell our house. um.... no. we're busy living in it.

I got something in the mail the other day saying someone was "interested" in buying my house. 1) I'm currently living in an apartment, and 2) the house I co-own with my brother is a source of income, so no--they can't have it.

That's what I told the guy on the phone. I'm busy living in my house.

I know how you feel. I have some big time health issues, I underplay mine to take care of my son...it's hard at times, I know.

I've been known to do the same. It helps that George is content lying on the couch, it makes caring for him easier.

We do all we are able to do and then some, certain days seem harder than others, you probably experience that as well.

My grandson tells me the same thing when I ask him to take it out. I hate to keep nagging him but he forgets.
I'm glad we don't have to pay for the water or trash here.
I hope there is something good on TV.

@kaylachan ........That's one nice thing about renting. But there is good in both.

Oh, I do. I do take care of myself. I'm human and sometimes I just don't want to be an adult.

I've determined that adulting is no fun at all. So you know what? I've decided I'm going to skip work on Friday and go to Disney World. lol
I hope you stay cool as much as. you can, and don't overdue it with all the adulting chores!

@moffittjc I try. I have to pace myself sometimes. So I can't always adult that way. As long as it gets done.

@kaylachan Good for you! I think it's best to get the daily adulting done as fast as possible so that you can spend the rest of your day on other things!

Yeah, I “love” those people who send me things in the mail saying, “I just sold a house near you, want me to sell yours, too?” Where am I supposed to live if I sell it???
I don’t like adulting, either. It’s a major scam that our parents pulled on us…making being an adult look so cool so we “couldn’t wait” to be an adult. FRAUDSTERS!

Funny enough, we got one of those in the mail, and a phone call. I wasn't going to sell the house.

Not a whole lot will change, yet a lot will. It's a funny feeling.
