branchandrootOkay, but for real though, the saffron extract is doing some neurochemical lifting, here.
Today I have: done two loads of laundry, including sheets, remade the bed, vacuumed, put away the groceries, made taco pie, watered the plants, made a batch of homemade tortillas, washed all the cooking dishes, and I feel astonishingly not like a used dishrag. Accomplished and reasonably relaxed, rather. It is not inconceivable that I may be able to scrub the cats’ water fountain out in a bit.
It’s been ages since I had the energy/focus/making-things-happen-ness to make tortillas, and I love homemade tortillas with a great passion, so this is a definite win.
(The saffron has enough oomph to cause some mild withdrawal symptoms, in fact, if you miss a dose, so treat this like you would any other psychoactive and keep an emergency dose.)
