The last time I was sick in bed (lucky me, a rare event, maybe 5 years ago or even longer), when I rallied a bit, I got up, made the bed and took a shower before going back to bed. I am like a little robot in many respects.
I do try not to schedule as much drudgery on the weekends as I used to, since I'm retired and DH works all week. The only "extra" things on my list for today are to do some yard clean-up and try to decide placement for our latest carpentry projects, or even whether our house can accommodate them. I need DH to give me a hand with moving those around (wooden storage ottomans).
My every day things are make bed, clean litter boxes, change water in cats' dishes, take a walk with DH or somehow get my 10,000 steps, tidy up a bit, and one or the other of us washes dishes.
PS: I did get all my things done yesterday.
