The first days after I gave up driving, since I was not even able to climb up to get on a bus, I thought I would feel trapped staying at home. Thanks, to God, though, I have been a resourceful person and was able to manage to reorganize the use of my time.
I started
by reviewing which tasks I was still able to do. Then, I did my schedule. On
Mondays, I would clean what we called the TV room, the office, and the guest
bathroom. On Thursdays, I would do our bedroom and bathroom. I would cook on
the weekends when my husband was at home in case I needed help.
After the chores, I would relax, check my e-mails, make a couple of calls to family and friends, and read and write every single day.
