also hi 👋🏻 still behind on laundry

ok so it’s not just today’s high temperatures keeping me from catching up, it’s also the mental rut i’ve been in since i injured my back. it’s doing a lot better now but i still have to mind my posture and the chores i do to keep it from hurting

i also need to actually do the exercises my physical therapist left me with on a regular basis

but in the meantime while i recover, there’s a lot of things i can’t do as easily anymore. i can’t get all the laundry done in a single day. i can’t stand at the stove or counter long enough to cook a meal start to finish, much less wash a good amount of dishes in the deep sink. i can’t bend forward for very long as is required for washing the bathroom, cleaning the litter box, sweeping, folding laundry, mending clothes, clean out the fridge, et cetera, et cetera!

i’m not completely helpless, my roommates have been really supportive while my injury heals. i try not to leave everything to them and do what i’m able, but it’s nearing 3 months since i sprained my back and i still have no semblance of routine beyond work and video games. it’s hard not to feel guilty when they come home and i realize i left dishes out or something…

my balcony blocks my view of the playground, but I heard one child yell "I FOUND A FROG" with a great deal of excitement and now there is screaming, so I'm filling in some blanks

situational update: a little girl screamed "LEAVE HIM ALONE" and now there's noises that sound suspiciously like a child getting wailed on by a wiffle ball bat

further update: parent has been called to the scene. distribution of fault is underway. bat appears to have been confiscated.

bat has been returned under the promise of not deploying it once more against brothers. the pause and "but tell him to leave the frog alone" tells me it will likely come back into play shortly.

as expected, frog was bothered again and frog warrior took up her weapon once more. all children are being collected to leave on charges of acting "like y'all have NO sense"

personally I stand with frog defender on this issue
