I was shifting clutter from one room to another when dang it a heap fell off the makeshift tabletop onto the floor.
I'm getting nowhere.
None of my goals and deadlines have worked. But I'd like to make a big difference over the next 6 weeks, which is supposed to be the second half of my recovery time

It's been too difficult lately. I've reverted to an old strategy of cleaning up the neighbourhood. Lots of SnapSendSolve reports and bags of litter that I've picked up.
I'm still restricted in what I can do and I'm still taking daytime naps. I've had no household help for a couple of months, and had only 2 sessions total before that.
I think I need help but there isn't any. Maybe it's all in my head and I need therapy but I'm scared of going back to the therapist.

Well done on picking up rubbish around the neighbourhood. Don’t be too hard on yourself. Let yourself recover

Wise words @TAB . "I try and concentrate on what I can do now, as opposed to what I thought I could do, stopped and moved to something else." Mostly I don't even start.
I'm realising stuff I can't do like shift plants in the garden and wheel a bin of lawn clippings.
