Get some food and water if you haven’t in a while!
Plug in your device!
Feed any pets!
If it’s between 10 pm and 7 am and you have no reason to be awake besides being up on your phone, go to sleep or at least get comfortable and start trying to sleep!
Check around you and stack any dishes and bring them to the kitchen! Including plates, cups, bowls, and utensils!
Do a quick look around and pick up any trash and put it in the bin!
Message anyone to check in on them and yourself! Respond to any messages you may have gotten, answer some asks if need be, let your family know that you’re safe, whatever you need to do!
If you need to and are able to, go take a shower! Or clean your face! Get changed at the very least, put your clothes in the dirty hamper, and feel better about it!
That’s all for now! Good job, I’m proud of you for doing that!
Okay but legit, if you’re not in a Buy Nothing group, seek out your closest one. We literally got a free washer and dryer once. We’ve gotten groceries, craft supplies, pet supplies, clothes, and all sorts of shit. It’s awesome.
On top of that, Instead of donating our old unwanted stuff to places like Goodwill, which wildly mistreat their workers, Buy Nothing lets me donate things directly to my community, without the risk that the sorters at the thrift shop will just throw things in the trash. I’ve passed along open things of hair care products that I didn’t wind up liking but that had nothing wrong with them. I’ve passed along snacks we didn’t like, pet food we didn’t wind up using, and all sorts of perishables that would have otherwise gone right in the garbage.
My local group even has regular meetups where people bring all their stuff at once, and it’s like a giant garage sale where everything is free.
