Make time for 'doing stuff'

My 'to do' list for Saturday was a mix of household bits and potentially fun bits. As usual I didn't get to the sewing or actually any fun bits. I really like sewing so why don't i get to it? I think the whole get the sewing machine out, look for the cotton, try to find someone to thread the needle etc I just get put off by the knowing how long it will take (probably actually less than i think, of course) and it gets postponed again.

As far as i can see, I work (quite a bit, as it happens) and i do housework. Something has gone a little wrong. I need to add a few more fun things back on to my to do list.

Of course it doesn't help that my husband has this low level Aspergers thing going on, so a very haunted look comes onto his face when I suggest doing anything. All the same I am fifty, and obviously not getting any younger so its time to act.

Any ideas????

  2. I think you might be right.
    I rad up on my Myers Briggs type after writing this and found that us ENTP's never stick with hobbies so I feel less obligated now!

  3. I love that Myers Briggs stuff. I always felt insufficient because I can't remember jokes to tell people and then I read that ISTJ's also stands for I Seldom Tell Jokes and that made me feel better so I don't worry about it any more.

  4. You cant fight who you are. My jokes are also appalling or non existent. It must be the T that we have in common.
