Been a few weeks
It's been a few weeks, but I'm trying not to fall back into bad habits. That's easier said than done, but using the Kanban Flow checklists helps so much. I've been trying to actually honor the UfYH principle of actually taking a break instead of using the break time on another task until I reach burnout and ignore checklists and chores alike this ( Read more... )
Last night for example, I had a measured ounce of Terra root chips because dinner was taking longer to cook than I had anticipated, my sugar was at 74, and I wanted something in my growling stomach. Followed by ground beef in a marinara sauce over broccoli, which I didn't measure my portions of. Before bedtime (an hour and a half after eating), my readings was 93. Took my medicines, went to bed, and woke up with 135.
Because I expected a spike of only ten degrees from the bedtime reading this morning, I started a food log because it will make me measure and maybe I can pinpoint what is causing that night reaction.
I should probably make a list of all the dinky little things that need sorting and cleaning here and try to actually do it. -- I am the world's worse about keeping surfaces other than the floor clutter-free. There is just so much else that needs doing and is more fun than chores, I will procrastinate the worse on them until my brain has a clutter-responsibility-something anxiety attack. The checklists short-circuit all that and results in me having a house that isn't a toxic dump. The time limits help even more because twenty minutes daily means I don't lose Saturday because every dish is dirty and must be washed. :p
UfYH has done the hard work for you: pre-made checklists. :D The spring-cleaning one is the only one you can't read out loud to the kids.
