let us be calm and wise

I made a list of 5 things that really should get done no matter how bad the day is (caring for my animals, applying deodorant, brushing my hair, eating something, brushing my teeth) and I try to get them done. Some days I'm thrilled if I get one of them done though. And then I forgive myself and try to move on the next day. Though for the last couple weeks nothing has been working at all. :-/
