Keep this in mind.
Today, the task is this:
These are dead batteries. Where I live, you can recycle batteries, and there are multiple places around town to drop them off. I could throw them away, and I'm sure most people do this, but I feel as if I have the option to recycle, then I should.
So I save them. Dead batteries. In a baggie. Because this makes more sense than throwing them out, I guess.
But of course I never remember to take the dead battery baggie with me anywhere to drop them off, and they just keep building, and then the pandemic comes and everything closes except the grocery store battery recycling dropoff, and I need to walk over and that requires time alone unless I'm bringing everyone and...
this is when something in the back of my head goes *ping* in a gentle, bell like tone. *prepare for shut down in 3...2....1* And then I mindlessly open a book and eat a piece of cheese.
Today it was rainy, and the dog was acting nuts and I knew she would insist on joining me, and I wasn't sure how that would work, and my injured foot hurt and David was tired and there were all sorts of reasons not to go, but I got the baggie of batteries, and I walked to the store, and I recycled them. There. One thing done. Let's see if I can keep the momentum going.
