    Default I think my fling has flung

    ugh I can't seem to get motivated to keep on flinging. The playroom is in the BEFORE stage again.

    My laundry is stacked up AGAIN.

    I'm singing the flinging blues.

    I take breaks. Long ones sometimes. It will still be there tomorrow, and so will I if I take care of myself.

    Trouble iwth housework is nobody is around to say "its QUITTING TIME!!!"

    Even at work as an RN, the end of shift comes and someone else takes over.

    Hey Sara, IT"S QUITTING TIME! tomorrow works well; it's ok to have closure on unfinished stuff.

    Hugs and get a good rest!

    Then take a break! Sometimes the only thing that gets me going again is when it gets to a point where I can't stand the mess. So, maybe you have flung so well that it's tolerable. Give it some time until you can't stand it, then clean it up (which will be easier this time because you've gotten rid of so much stuff) and move on to a new fling while you are on a roll. Ain't no shame, baby, do yo' thang. (In some song, don't remember which one, though.)

    I'll jump back in next week (I hope!)
