I guess I don't cope with surprises well. Mostly I just give up on what I was trying to do before the interruption. There are lots of things on a daily basis that I don't get done. You have all probably noticed when someone is coming I have a lot of things to do, and I realize it sounds like I don't keep a clean or organized house.
Bad thing is I no longer have any sense of urgency that something must get done. That was not serving me well. I have 2 things I do well consistently, my morning routine and my desk chores. It doesn't help that DH doesn't care about appearances. As long as there's something to eat and clean clothes somewhere (don't have to be folded up in drawers or hung up, a laundry basket is just fine) he's happy. Leftovers in the fridge is fine too.
I should be glad he's so laid back. Egads, you should see his shop. He keeps his papers the same and we're always looking for something. We're really not on the same page about much and that hasn't served us well over the years. I wonder what a marriage counselor would say.
He is out working. I'll admit when he is gone (unless he calls for something) it's more peaceful around here. Too bad when he's here he doesn't want to keep busy with a honey-do list.
Hmm, can we Kon-mari people who don't give us joy?
Ok I need to get something done. I have a huge bin of old house plans I want to go through and pare down. Lots of duplicates in there. I'd like to pitch the whole thing but you know I'm not in charge of that...
(Twins) sure sounds like you have a lot on your plate. I'm glad nobody was hurt in the accidents.
