Road Block

I haven't posted for a few days now about my house of shame.  That is because I haven't done much at all.  I've been going through a rough patch and have only been getting the necessities done. 
If you know me, you know that I've been depressed pretty much since my hubby died.  The meds are keeping me pretty stable but every once in a while I have a major mood drop.  Thank God for my critters, they make me get out of bed to look after them and give me lots of cuddles.

Funny thing about being depressed is that my brain tells me that if I get busy doing something I will start to feel better but I just don't have the oomph to get started.  Then I feel more depressed because nothing productive was done.  After a couple days of this cycle, I found the necessary will to try to alter, if not put a halt to the cycle completely.  I decided to look at cleaning in a bit different frame.  Instead of looking at the whole job, I instead broke it down into wee jobs like piling my zentangle supplies into a neat pile and putting the dishes away.  By doing small things, I finally got a bit of cleaning done.  I am going to have to continue to make myself do small things until I climb out of this hole I find myself in.  There is a light at the end of the tunnel.

I'll keep you posted.
