I’ve always been an all or nothing kind of guy. It’s my Achilles heel. If I can’t do it to perfection, then I won’t do it at all. I drank beer the same way. Earlier in the week, I started a new game plan called progress not perfection. This has gotten Old Fuss and Feathers very excited. I am doing one or two things a day to clean my house and get my clothes in order. Yesterday, I polished my glass top stove and scrubbed my kitchen sinks. Today, I plan on doing a load of laundry and hanging up all my clothes when they are finished drying and not letting them linger in the dryer. Tomorrow, I am mopping the tile bathroom and hall floors. We will tackle the kitchen floor at a later date. See? Progress not perfection…

A lot easier when you don’t try to do everything all at once. Small steps.
I would say she is alergic to something. She has to be miserable.
A little at a time is the best way to do things. When my husband died I made up my mind to do at least two things a day, and one of them is to get up, washed and dressed. Then anything else I do is progress. I find one thing leads to another and if I don't finish everything I want to do that day...so what? It will still be there tomorrow. You'll be surprised just how much can be done a little at a time, and you don't beat yourself up over what doesn't get done.
