Wise words. I often end up with stacks because my energy runs out. <br /><br />Anyway...continue with the baby steps...looking forward to seeing where your path goes next.Edithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11904025280425788514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15437418.post-41249356424198250852011-07-16T14:25:56.312+01:002011-07-16T14:25:56.312+01:00You made a start, Hurray!!!

But my basement is the equivalent of your attic, I believe. My resolve on FB earlier this week brought naught! But there is another week coming, Lord willing. I just dread it so much. But I do need to do the 15 minute thing - or an hour - I've been advised of both.<br /><br />If you want to Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14938607712512860569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15437418.post-44913566833835549152011-07-16T02:13:46.719+01:002011-07-16T02:13:46.719+01:0020 done is 20 off the list, my friend!

I once read about the "Swiss cheese theory" to getting things done - do something, even 15 minutes worth - it's more than you had done before and it's a start. I use it more and more these days :) I wish I lived closer so I could sift through that fabric stash with you :) <br /><br />You asked about Samuel - he was 2 in May but in so Crystalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04273314911940422824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15437418.post-6813317330264519262011-07-16T00:52:35.924+01:002011-07-16T00:52:35.924+01:00Baby steps, baby steps.

That's the advice I learned from FlyLady and it's worked very well for me when I am tempted to go full boar. Be as gentle with yourself as you would anyone else. Oh I hate to paint and have a number of paint jobs waiting. Ugh. I'd rather not.Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15437418.post-41627643252580355062011-07-15T22:51:01.426+01:002011-07-15T22:51:01.426+01:00And you took lemons and made lemonade... :)And you took lemons and made lemonade... :)Stripeyspotshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11921205518172694054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15437418.post-16623763245086535602011-07-15T22:17:59.864+01:002011-07-15T22:17:59.864+01:00Yes Linds, little by little.

I start out wonderfully and end by doing a rather slapped together job because I am too tired to care.<br />Much better to do it this way. You've started. That's a big step in the right direction!<br />Have a blessed weekend - and don't over-do.Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14937532276250199445noreply@blogger.com
