How do you get used to nothing being finished.....

It drove my mom crazy every time she came to visit . . . just fix it just fix it . . . Nope, we waited until we have the money and time to gut and remodel the entire bathroom. We changed to layout, added storage, a huge job. Why waste time and money fixing a faucet that you'lll just be throwing away in a year or so anyway. (yeah, I belive it was over a year we lived without a bathroom sink)

But I get bent out of shape when another "project" gets started when the other isn't complete yet..for whatever reason. And there are always reasons...flat tire on the tractor is the reason today. Usually it's the weather.
The other day my boss told me he finally finished building his horse shelter...I asked him if he cleaned up and put his tools away. Nope. Then it's not finished yet in my book! I only knew to ask him that because of the way my hubby is. He says he's done...then I have to go out and really make it done!

It's also okay to put things on the list later after they are completed (that you forgot to list) just so you can cross them off.
