Been getting ready for winter and finishing up outdoor projects that have been sitting around for the last couple of years. So when spring comes along, I don't have to finish shit I left around and I can start on the next big project.
Could also be the flow of the house. Every house I've been in where the washer and dryer are side by side, the washer has been closer to the entrance of the wash room and the dryer is farther (and usually towards the back door). My thought process would be dump the clothes in the washer and then kick the basket in front of the dryer to pull them out later and get it more out of the walking path. (unless there's room on top of the dryer)
A movie night. Like go to Walmart, find a couple good dvds or whatever that the family will like, buy some popcorn and if you can find it for not too much, one of those popcorn buckets. If you can find a couple of those movie theater size candies then toss them in too.
Sometimes I don't have the motivation to cook, sometimes I do. Sometimes I have the motivation to get shit done that isn't in the kitchen. Throwing a pizza in the oven can buy me an extra hour of working on something else because I don't have to come in early to wash up, prep, cook, then wash the damn dishes.
I know online schooling can be frustrating. I earned most of my college degree and 2 certificates that way. Ultimately we're all human and even teachers make mistakes. There are also online teachers who bullshit their jobs and do dumb shit like taking cursory looks at assignments and half ass grading. I remember reading somewhere that these teachers will take on several classes and get paid per class and that some of them will work with multiple schools.
I'm sorry your daughter had to deal with that stress. You did the best thing your could which is follow up and keep ask about it and in the worst case scenario, escalate it. Usually these teachers also have phone numbers in their syllabus, don't be afraid to call them or to contact the school to get the number. I remember most online teachers only check their messages once a day and some of them won't check on weekends.
This will probably happen again at some point. Just follow up and contact the teacher. Any time I ever had issues the teachers were adults about it and apologized. Idk if this is with every online school but mine would send out surveys at the end of each class. If you get those make sure to fill them out with good and bad feedback. The positive thing about this is you are showing your daughter how to handle a real world problem like an adult and how to resolve a conflict with someone she has to work with.
Going through data and writing letters are the only tasks I've seen AI be useful for. I still wouldn't trust it as far as I could kick it's ass and I'd check it well before submitting for work.
Finding a better therapist would help. Also finding the right people to vent to. Some people handle it better than others. You can try even saying, "hey, I'm not looking for advice, I just need to vent, would you mind being an ear?" at least that way you have their permission and they understand that they aren't expected to fix whatever the issue is. Controlling who you vent to is also a good way to prevent venting to the wrong asshole who can't shut their mouth.
I know you said no Journaling, but also consider a journal app on your phone or even just a Google docs. It's a discreet way to vent briefly. I remember also taking a pen and a notebook and writing how I felt over the same line over and over so it wasn't legible to anybody walking by. It's likely something you'll never read again and it's about letting out the frustration more than anything.
