Til i get it right!!!!!!!!!

Well, if I am frustrated...I commonly walk away for a little while...then I can come back to it and begin again with out all of the stress from before...I see no bebfit in letting something get to me that way....so this is how I choose to handle it....

Most of the time, I try to stick with it and get it done right. I am very picky and want things done a certain way. For example, I recently painted a wall on my back porch that the former owners had painted hot pink. After the second coat of white paint I could still see the pink coming through even though my Mom and wife thought that I was crazy! Sometimes, I do compromise to get things done. For instance, I was hanging a power strip on that same cement block wall and had a hard time getting the drill bit to go through the block, so I decided to use Velcro to fasten the powerstrip to the wall. In both cases, I got the tasks done to my satisfaction.

Most of the time-- if I am really frustrated and I can't get it right- I walk away from it- for a bit- if I'm at work- I put it to the side and do soemthing else- sometimes a fresh brain works better- and I figure it right out- I'm pretty stubborn also- but I know I have wasted alot of time trying to figure things out- when all I needed was time away!

My mom called it stubborness, too. I call it determination and perseverence!
