Things to get done

So today at work i typed up a list of things that need to be done at my house. Little things like put the new wood on the bench and stain it. Fix a picture frame, finish painting the pictgure frames white, put up a shelf, put up the tv stand. So there are 16 things on this list to get done. NOw that im thinking about it i need to add one more thing. The wood for the bench has been sitting in my garage going on three weeks now. I asked my boyfriend when he thought he was going to fix it, he said when his garage got cleared out so this weekend i brought over a lot of stuff to goodwill and got rif of it so he has room in his garage now to do things. So now lets see how long it takes him to do things. I dont understand why he procrastinates things and doesnt get things done when he has no job and wakes up at 12:00 during the day. It seems at 10:00 at night he wants to start doing things and i wont do it because i have to get up at 6:30 to be to work at 8:00 in the morning so that doesnt work well with me. Do you have a man in your life that doesnt get things done either? My house on the side looks like a junk yard and i cant stand the stuff everywhere it drives me crazy.

My husband can procrastinate at times if he just is not in the mood to do anything.If things really need to get done due to a deadline he will work till its done. He does not like to wait till the next day to get the work done. On ocassion he will get a project that will take longer then a few days and then he will work as much as possible in one day. He likes to keep busy most of the time so I'm grateful for that. I feel for you because to me there is nothing worse then a lazy man, especially if he does not have a full time job.

Well we have a housewarming party in three weeks and so much stuff has to get done and its pretty scary. I dont want him waiting till the last minute to get this stuff done because then hes going to yell and get angry wtih me for no reason. He just needs to do things everyday and work on stuff and then he wouldnt be waiting till the last minute, but im sure he will and then he will be mad at me like always

For much of April I have been working on a program called Clutter to Calm and it has made a big difference to my bungalow. My daughter's bedroom looks perfect now. My bedroom and my son's bedroom are almost completed. My lounge and my kitchen are almost done too. I am going to put shelves in a cupboard to get some extra storage. I got a handy man out to look at this idea of mine today. Tomorrow he will give me a quote. I am a singe parent. Good luck with getting things done and having your boyfriend help you.
