Hi Bren,
I take advantage of situations where I'm forced to be somewhere, to do something I would normally not have the self-discipline to do. Cleaning is one of those things.
I noticed that I walk by mom's cookie jar, and help myself often, and that's a habit I'd like to break. Wish they weren't around, but she likes them, and it makes the pills go down easily. Walking by a temptation is like using that heat to force myself to do some things I might not do, under nicer conditions....like the cleaning.
Also, a lot of people escape the dark, frigid winter to go to very hot locations at great expense.
It also could be worse, since some have lost power, and are at risk with young and elder people to care for.
Maybe there's a silver lining we can all see, if we look hard, but maybe someone else has more creative ideas.
