Inadequacy

I haven't really accomplished much today. I took some "non-drowsy" medicine for my sinus issues but I've been sleepy from it anyway. I did get the table cleared off that I am putting the Christmas tree on. It had a bunch of books and homeschool materials on it. I cleared out a shelf on the bookcase and arranged them there. I found a new place for the cookbooks I moved from the bookcase. Voila! Clean table. I'm about to get the tree out (just a 4 ft this year) but I don't feel like tackling that hellish closet so ornaments will be for another day.

School was challenging today. Jacen did not want to cooperate. He has days like that but it's extra annoying when I already don't feel well. We made it through Language Arts and Social Studies at least. 

I'm feeling a little glum. I think it's just the sickness. I'm feeling kind of inadequate with taking care of my mom and son and the house and the dogs. Many people have far more on their shoulders than I do, but because of my mental illness I don't do well with a lot of responsibility. I can't multitask and I get stressed easily. We had a physical therapist here this morning and an occupational therapist this afternoon. It makes me anxious to have people in our house. I will just have to get over it, though, because it's going to be like this for a while.
