A wet and icky Thursday afternoon

Heaps of boxes at the curb getting soggy in the rain. Several trash bags too, including one that leaked on its way out of the house, necessiting I stop to mop the trail it left behind. Can I get more out today? Maybe. If I can stop going in circles and muttering to myself. This is one of those days where I'm oozing neuroses out of my pores.
Am going in about four different directions. Trying to clean, talking to J and making calls for her---bless her heart, she has offered to take me around to drop off some applications next week. (Because I'm at the point where I don't have a lot of gas, or money to refill, it's about 15 cents a mile to go anywhere, and one place in particular will ONLY take resumes/applications delivered personally---and they're 10 miles each way. There's a reason I avoid talking about this, it makes my brain short-circuit. Arrrgh.)
I should also do laundry. The garage is horrendous; I flung stuff out there to clear other areas, now I need to deal with it all. And my bedroom closet---that stuff is clean, but most of it can go, either I don't wear it or it doesn't fit. Or I don't wear it because it doesn't fit. Department of Redundancy Department much?
Plus, if I can do sheets and such NOW, I won't have to worry about it when GK gets here. Pillow(s), I'm sure I have a couple I can boil clean. Do I have a twin fitted sheet anywhere? IDK, it's been about 15 years since I've had a twin bed to put one on, but I can always wrap a queen-sized sheet around the mattress. It's only for a few nights. I doubt it'll be cold enough for a quilt, but THAT I've got.
Part of the problem is, Excedrin is the only thing standing between me and involuntary decaffeination. I don't want to take too much of it because I *don't* need the aspirin, so I may get even squirrellier. Be afraid.

But I'm doing it a little at a time, work for a half-hour, rest for a bit, do something else, rest go back to the first thing for a while, etc. Trying not to make myself too crazy.

Was it the lock-box locked? It may have been an act of self-preservation on a Very Bad Day. Clever, if so -- and Winchestery.
