New Year, New Thoughts

It is difficult for me to let anyone see
what a mess I've made for myself
and my family.

While some small corners are functional
and even have nice touches...

...others barely function.  There is a lot of
work to be done, here.

(The desk was recently moved from my son's room.
Two of the drawers had yet to be emptied and
returned to the desk.)

Thing is, I'm still working to get rid of
my perfectionist tendencies.
 In case you are on of those
people who is not a perfectionist,
congratulations.
There are folks who happily claim to be
perfectionists.

I don't believe them.

If their house looks nice
and
it is clean
and
they are able to do something
besides straighten
and clean
rather obsessively
and
they sleep at night,
I question the level of their
perfectionism.

It's kind of like skepticism.

I'm so skeptical that I think
your skepticism
is put on for effect.

See what I mean?

True, deep, dyed-in-the-wool
perfectionism is never
satisfied.

Never!

So, I aspire to be a
"good enough-er."

I'd like to have things
functional,
comfortable,
clean
and
even pretty.

If I can do this,
instead of being paralyzed
by the reality that
I will never get things
perfectly perfect...

WELL!

I might actually enjoy
my housework!

WHAT?

I hear it's possible.

Hmm!

Let's see, shall we?

If you have any wisdom,
any tips,
any encouragement
for me,
I surely would
appreciate it!

Thanks
