How productive were you today?

1 Answer

Answer :

Felt productive. I cleaned, did laundry, went to a home & garden expo, went to lunch with my husband and his friend, did some shopping, cooked chicken and started spaghetti sauce for dinner, tomorrow. Probably a typical, relaxed day for most people. However, considering that I’ve been pretty much housebound with anxiety issues for the last year.. being out that much today was exhausting. Productive, though, maybe not in the classic sense of the word.
