ribbonknight @ribbonknight.bsky.social · 15hWork was busy af today but in the morning I decided the most important thing was that I schedule someone to service my mom’s powered lift chair AND I DID IT. The follow through meant I maintained a priority alongside a billion work tasks instead of forgetting and then hating myself all weekend 060
