It’s kind of sad how non functional I can be.

I’m trying to laugh about it.

Cuz...well...yeah.

It’s better to laugh and hopefully move on as opposed to thinking I’m so sad.

So today I finally unpacked my suitcase from a trip I took 5 months ago. Warm weather trip. It’s winter where I live. Didn’t exactly need the contents of the suitcase anyway. And oh, I probably would have let it go another month (until I needed the clothes here when it gets warm) if it wasn’t for my trip to Florida next week. It was a bad trip and I really didn’t want to see the contents of the suitcase anyway. Last week I found my food stash in a carry on bag. Ewww. That wasn’t pretty. LOL.

But when I think about it, it is really funny. I mean I’ve been tripping over this damn suitcase in the middle of my bedroom for FIVE months!

So is there anything you’d like to share about how you can be non-functional? Just so we can all laugh together instead of beating ourselves up!
 
The 3 drawyers of horror. I dislike paper...cards yes, but I dislike bank stuff or other official letters. I am usually organized, but not when it comes to documents. Dont ask me where my birthcertificate is, or my insurance stuff. They are somewhere hidden in those 3 drawyers. I'd rather clean windows than search for documents. Urghhh
 
I think it’s funny....

I read the responses and think ME TOO!

At least I’m not alone.

I don’t even use my closet. Piles of clothes in my bedroom.

Paperwork? Again, in a pile. I have good intentions of filing it all away in its proper place.

One day I’ll get there.

I rather wash windows, too. It’s funny how I’ll do certain chores that aren’t even urgent just so I can keep avoiding others even longer.
 
Mine is shoes ! Shoes lined up on each step as though they are making their own way upstairs ! Ive worn them and then i put them on the stairs thinking ‘i will take them up later’ and later can be anything from 10 mins to 10 days (or longer). Eventually it will bug me cos my partner will do the same so i then do move them ( well not the ones i plan to wear next day!) .
I am considerate though in that i put them to the side edge of the stairs so as not to cause a trip hazard lol !!
Good post @EveHarrington , made me laugh

After moving out into a new home and divorcing last summer, I've been so disorganized. I have made a LOT of lists. Three days ago I said I'd make a list that looks something like this.....you know the to do list? It's spring vacation....I need to get stuff done. Clothes strewn around-do laundry-stop walking on it, dishes in the sink piled high....been over a week since I've run Mr. dishwasher, make-ahead meals needing done, take care of the cat-a whole chapter just on the Cat- poops by the pan instead of in it.....on the list-BUY Advantage and toss her butt outside, clean the floors, take trash to dump, find all the paperwork for income taxes (HAHAHA-paperwork in 3 boxes and laying around, sort mail, draw my T shit in journal and write something (I've been avoiding), go grocery shopping, get a pedicure, go to Michaels and buy cool art stuff, print photos, clean up the room, etc. So I procrastinate and sit around on this site....gabbing. Then I went to drawing lessons....that was cool and came home a draw all yesterday morning....got nothing productive done...tired by noon...but the picture was pretty.. I watched TV and got a whale of a hacking cough and chills-yesterday. Excuse to shut down! Looked around at all the shit that needs to be done, roll over, pull the covers up, go to bed...
 
I like this thread...
I've gotten to a point where I just have a garbage bag in my living room so I don't have to bend down to pick up stuff and walk it into the kitchen. Been doing this for a few months. It works. And then I feel accomplished lmao! That is really messed up, I know. Never before in my life.

Don't feel like drying my long hair or doing it anymore so I just put it into a bun, wet. I'll leave the house this way all the time.

I'm buying a lot of the better microwave meals, etc.. for my son because my appetite has been ZERO, and depression has zapped my energy.

I've used paper towels for a few days instead of toilet paper because my energy is too zapped to do much of anything.

We moved here in September and my dining room is still full of boxes - I mean full - the dining room is the room of boxes. Well at least when we get evicted packing what I can put in my car will be easier ;)

Yeah, I pretended to do the ombré hair thing until I felt up to dying my hair again, lol. It so didn’t look good but I somehow convinced myself it did. I finally dyed it again and chopped it all off....people (WOMEN!) compliment me on my hair now! No more long hair, it’s too much work. I do notice that I don’t get as many looks from guys though. Funny because BAD long hair is more “attractive” than cute as hell shorter hair? Whatevs!
