Why Can't I Get Off My Butt???

Edition #5

Projects I Really Need to Complete

1. Filing - I thought that by now, we were supposed to be a paperless society! At least that's what I remember Alvin Toffler saying in his book, Future Shock.
2. Weeding - I am convinced that the mulch distributors pre-seed the mulch with weed seed.
3. Laundry - Does anyone (except my mother) ever get caught up with this?
4. Wash the Dog - "Please Mommy, I'll take care of it. I promise!"
5. Clean out the fridge - There must have been something to eat in there at some time because it sure stinks now!
6. Clean out my closet - I'm not wearing the stuff so I should pass it along to someone who will.
7. Organize the photos on my computer - I see you nodding your head. You're as overwhelmed by yours as I am mine.
8. Straighten up the garage - I would really like to get my car back in there!
9. Sew buttons on my husband's pants - Mothers: teach your sons to sew.
10. I'm getting exhausted just making this list!
11. Clean out my car - I must be drinking enough water because it's sure full of empty water bottles.
12. Finish taking down the wallpaper in the dining room - I hate wallpaper!
13. Organize my son's closet - Or just get rid of all the junk in it!

Screw it! I think I'll just go knit.

Oh my gawd! If I did this list it would be gigantic! Lol .. :) Great idea for a TT, and thank you for stopping by!

My list would have the exact same things on it. Fortunately, most of the closets have doors that I just close because no matter how organized I think I am determined to be, in two weeks, it's right back where it was!!!

Your water bottles in the car made me laugh. I pulled 9 of them out of my mini-van yesterday! :)

Happy TT!

I don't even want to think about my list. Living in an apartment, at least I don't have lawn work on the list. I hope you get a lot accomplished.

[SusieJ]

This is a list I need to make. Thanks for the reminders.

Getting rid of clothing is emotionally traumatic and may lead to huge therapy bills. It's cheaper, in the end, to buy a bigger house and move it all there.

See! One less thing to feel angst about :)

Wow, you don't have to be bored, enough to do! Don't forget to do something nice for yourself too!
Thanks for visiting my essentials TT.

I need one of those reality shows that just comes to my house and does all that one time stuff - They should call it "Clean Up Your Life" - maybe they'd stop by every week :)

[Scooper]

Just think that after you de-junk the closet in two days it'll be junked up again. You're really saving yourself stress by not doing it.

Yeah, I get caught up on laundry. But then, invariably, I get buried under an avalanche that takes literally a few weeks before I'm caught up.

I'd rather have it slow and steady, ya know?

As for the rest, why not spend a half an hour a day on some of it? Slow and steady... Seems to be a recurring theme for me. Maybe I'm still worn out from recent travels?
