Forgot a Chore Under Orders
Anonymous Midnight Plum #548 · General Confessions
I was supposed to clean out the fridge as part of my post-divorce therapy to get back into routine. My therapist suggested I find someone who can push me, help me stay on track. So, I found this guy online who agreed to be my caregiver without labels or titles, just someone there to make sure things got done and I wasn't spiraling again. He gave me strict instructions last night to empty the fridge today before work. Got distracted by a call from an old friend, completely forgot about it. Now, I feel so guilty! It's strange how taking orders can affect your sense of responsibility like that, making you worry even over something as small as cleaning out food.
