Recently, I had to announce the death of my mother to her community

Deaths in our society are  traditionally announced through an obituary.

I am frustrated beyond frustrated.  My problem?  I can't follow routines.

I just recently visited a doctor who wanted me to take a pill every day, and I told her that I would do my best, but I am terrible at routines.  Unfazed, she replied that I should take it every time I brush my teeth.  I honestly responded that I don't brush my teeth every day.
