bad days

[kossai]

on bad days , sometimes kossai look at self care tasks and think , " do not care about that . " and sometimes that , before anything else , is signal that today is hard day - unwell day - and day to be gentle .

sometimes choose to skip minor tasks for this reason - but also specifically take on at least small bits of others .
say , might skip morning brush , because otherwise brain will get stuck in this loop and neglect to eat . eat is more important than morning brush on these kind of days , realistically .
but at that same time , while not immediately necessary to put away laundry , these things can pile up fast - and even little pile overwhelm brain and visual system lots . so , kossai will make point to pick up and put away at least one piece on days like this , even if small one . anything which is important and worth effort , is worth even small effort . 

and then , maybe tomorrow , will get that morning brush in again , and will be happy there is less or even no laundry left to put away . :)

Sorry about the bad day. You're right that it definitely matters to try and do the small version of a thing to keep bad days from leading to overwhelming piles. Hope tomorrow is better <3
