I have no clue how people get so much done. Having spent the past 16 years as a single parent of 2 with a full time job and a homeowner, all I can offer are excuses! I hate to admit it but I have lowered my standards for 'household maintenance' over the years - but I am happy not to let myself be bound by convention.

1. sick days
2. insomnia
3. hire the neighbor kids
4. retire

I just reduce the list and live in filth - but I'm cool with that.

Matt -- it's the kitty litter...

oV -- I WISH. Damn, I need a personal assistant.

Tree -- but the seasons!

Ptelea -- agreed. One can only do so much.

CP -- I'm all over those sick days...and retirement. Gotta love retirement.

Sydney B -- I would do likewise, but I'd be up to my eyeballs in furballs! Thanks for stopping.

Budda -- I'm cool with disorder...until I can't find that thing I need and it drives me crazy.

Yeah, and try to do some of that at a school site as well. That's how developed AOADD (Adult Onset Attention Deficit Disorder) The key word in that last sentenced in DEVELOPED........

Don't make to-do lists! It'll just kill you.

The Old Bag said...

Knox -- I think you're onto something!

Velogirl -- yeah...probably right. Thanks for stopping by!
