We have a hard time with "to do lists". I am very good at making them but lack the willpower and commitment to actually do what needs to be done. I was not always this lazy, but the stress that we have been under these past few years has taken all motivation out of me.
Today I am actually in the gardens pulling weeds. I enjoy the task when there are big weeds and you can see an improvement after a few minutes of work. I hate the small weeds, you work for an hour and cannot even tell where you have been. Grass seems to grow every where except on my lawn. My flower beds are full of grass and it always grows up the middle of all my plants making it virtually impossible to get it.
I have so many small tasks to take care of and soon. I am going to have to call a plumber to fix the leaky shower that seems to have caused a never ending drip in the garage. I am hoping that simply replacing the faucet with one of those Grohe faucets will fix the problem.
I will be spending this weekend fixing the deck that I had to tear apart in order to get to the stray kittens that were under there. That should be a quick job, but every time I say something like that it will end up taking me hours.
Now that I am officially 40 these simple tasks seem to take longer and longer to accomplish. I still have the broken drawer in the kitchen. Someday I will purchase the right materials to complete that job.
As I sit here typing this post I just pulled several nasty black flies out of my hairline. Those little guys can bite.
