Reply to comment by Sometimes_Stutters in LPT: If driving in a snowstorm and your GPS suggests taking a faster route, don’t do it if it takes you off the Highway. Backroads are usually last to be cleared of snow and you could get stuck! by Bradiator34
Agree agree agree. Son drove MN to NY and describes it as "not even the worst blizzard he's been in"
He knows the route and agrees with me. I was watching the tracker and trying to keep them off closed roads. Girlfriend doesn't believe me and ended up taking 2 hours because her gps said to head north right by the lake onto a pennisula and bridge.
Put weight in your car over the powered tires. Kitty litter, dog food.
Leave extra space. More space.

True. Can you tutor someone for some housekeeping time? Maybe trade kids with another Mom?

It's not a failure to hire someone to clean.
Small progress is still progress. Get rid of clutter and the stuff that just moved around. Finish jobs all the way to PUT AWAY.

Reply to comment by moons_of_neptarine in LPT Request: tips for unexpected death of family members when you're a head of household by moons_of_neptarine
I did it so that I knew it was a final bill. That I'd called that place and had made a note of if they wanted a death certificate.
For people that had insurance or a Will, it would be the top of the file that went to a lawyer, but I ended up not needing to do that part.

Don't pay anything right away with the spouses name on it. Call the bill immediately and tell them to send final bill to the estate of, care of...
Self care stuff? Deal with one thing at a time. One goal, one step.

Reply to [LPT REQUEST] Girlfriend came over, been coughing nonstop and having trouble breathing by DR3AMZx
Probably Covid, especially with sudden onset. With sudden, my thought is Cardiac like heart failure. Are her legs swelling? ER NOW, if her legs are extra swole or she's gained more than 5 pounds - AMBULANCE.
Have a blood pressure or pulse ox? If not, find an urgent care to get her looked over.
