Housework

Do you ever begin your housework thinking you are very energetic only to realize "you bit off more than you can chew?" Such as rearranging a room or rooms?

Definitely so but I just keep with it until I am done.

I feel it all the time.  Sometime I left it for the next day.  Sometime I want to force myself to finish the job.

seems like it takes me longer each day.  I don't seem to have it in me any more.  I used to do it a night when everyone was a sleep and out of my way.  Now I would just rather sleep.  Don't like not having that energy that I used to have.

Yes, that's why I don't try to clean the whole house in one or two days. I clean one room at a time or do a little bit at a time. I don't have the energy I did when I was younger.

I do get more ambitious than I can handle often. I get excited about some changes I want to make only to find out it involved more than I planned.

I always run into other stuff that needs to be done before I can continue with what I wanted to do in the first place...endless...to infinity and beyond.  :silly:

Having to change things around in the house is a big chore.  At this point, I hate it because my hubby makes me so frustrated when we try to do it.  I want to get a new bedroom set, but we can't afford it right now. :( :( :( :rainbow:

Happens to me all the time and I am the type of person that likes to finish what I have started. So I do finish my house work, but I would shorten my list of chores.

Yes, but if I've made a big mess, I'll go ahead and finish it up.  If there's not a lot of mess, then I'll just put it off for another day.

I try to change things around seasonally, but what I try to avoid whatever involves moving the cable or internet wires!  It's not only that it is such a pain to line the wires up again, but I hate that reboot, too.  For me the task is actually easier at this point than envisioning something new.  Once I can actually picture something that will work, I can just get to it.
