Sometimes, I get to the end of the day...

...and I just don't feel like I accomplished anything.
Which is a totally inaccurate feeling that doesn't have much to do with reality, but it's still there, you know?
I mean, I sent my son off to school with a lunch and a snack and his homework. I ate a proper breakfast (toast) and lunch (macaroni and cheese). I baked chocolate chip cookies (but didn't eat any, I didn't really want them, I just wanted to bake). I went to the grocery store and did a week's worth of grocery shopping. I wrote 1000 words. I medicated the cat, and fed both of them, twice. I met the boy getting off the bus. I supervised his doing of homework, and provided a snack. I made dinner. I took a shower. I spent 28 minutes on the phone with my mother.
And yet, I feel like I did nothing.

I have needs! Needs that are not being taken care of! I'd return him and ask for a refund but it might be awkward explaining to his mother why I want my money back. *g*
