Spacely – happy looking! Hope you find it.

Memzak – I hear you on the giving up and retiring from life. It would be really nice to not be accountable to anyone for things, and to just do what pleases me, but there is always this impulsive demon inside me who shouts “I’ll do it!!” just for the immediate reward of seeing the pleasure on a person’s face when they can palm off something difficult or time consuming. Then I spend ages regretting it, as the task plays on my mind over and over, until I eventually stress myself into a mess by doing the last minute rush to finish it. I then vow never to do something like that again, but I always do! I must admit that it can be very satisfying to do these sort of things, overall, but I always take on that little bit too much, always leave it till it’s nearly too late, and it’s incomplete state stresses me out until it’s done. I just wish I could motivate myself to start these things earlier, or not take on so much.

I am partway through my list. I have mended the penguin costumes, hung the photos, and packed up the toys. Now I am having lunch.

I feel like a bit of a fraud though. I am picking jobs that I know I am likely to do. I have steered clear of cleaning the shower, mopping floors, tidying the laundry cupboard, and going through our over-full filing cabinet to chuck out what’s not needed anymore. I guess starting with the easy things will help me get into habits, so that I can progress onto the harder stuff eventually. Maybe I’ll add sorting through a file or two to my list over the next couple of days.
