This Crazy Thing Called Life

My word.  I can't believe the things I try to do.  ALL the things I try to do.  If I did them one at a time, it probably wouldn't be a big deal.  However, when I try to

make dinner

try to keep track of all the medications I take and when they need to be refilled
make and go to all of my medical appointments and treatments
