They don’t smell bad, but they also don’t smell good. I can’t put my finger on it. I thought they would hilariously smell like chocolate, but that’s not it. I think he’ll laugh and that’s what’s important.

I have in my list that I’m going to organize my craft room, but I texted my organizer again today (I texted her a couple weeks ago) and she still hasn’t responded.
I feel… rejected. Dejected about being rejected?

Oh no!! There’s something about an organiser who hasn’t organised responding to a client that is … worrying? ironic? very human?
I hope it won’t bother you too much. Are there things you can tackle without her?

I need a body double to help me with my craft room, I can ask one of my friends.
I looked at my organizer’s company FB page and Insta and there haven’t been any new posts since December. I’m hoping that she’s alright. I would totally be fine with a “I can’t rn, maybe in a couple months” text.

That is very curious. I hope they are alright and I hope for you that you can continue your mission without this derailing you. I know I saw such a pleased response from you when you did previous parts of this plan. Good luck!

Oh dear, I hope it’s nothing to worry about. That’s a good idea to enlist a friend - that would help keep up momentum for you.

I very much have a momentum problem depending on how much I want to work on the project. Sometimes I get very excited to start a project but if I can’t finish it within whatever made-up time period my brain decides, I lose interest entirely. I’m concerned that if I drag everything out of my craft room, I’ll have to stop for something like “taking care of my family” () then I’ll get sidetracked and not touch it again unless absolutely necessary.
On a positive note, I finished my latch hook kit!

Oh, Brains, why are you like this? (I say, avoiding working on several projects I’m theoretically excited about…)

I was just thinking about this earlier today! Why in the world do I procrastinate on the stuff I’m excited to do!? I never did figure it out, lol.

When you figure it out, you will be a genius to all! I have done that my entire life…I think part of it is the excitement of the pressure…can you beat the clock? But, once I get going, I then become so hyper focused that I forget to sleep, eat, or even answer the phone! I can’t think of anything else except to get it done…I have accepted that I am wired that way and have managed to deal with it, but it is still annoying when I think about it!

I procrastinate a lot too! For me, I think it often goes back to perfectionism - I don’t want to mess it up so I put off making a start. It’s a lot easier to keep going once I’ve started, but then if I’ve put a project aside for too long, it’s a challenge again …

Yeah, same here. If I dont start the project, it will always work out perfect! If I do start it, it might not be perfect. But once I start, its fun and it will become something at least.

I know that perfectionism and procrastination are linked. We just need to be more forgiving of ourselves as mistakes are not the end of the world! I saw that @TheMistressT posted that a mistake is like a bruise, not a tattoo…I need to put that up on my wall!

This does not surprise me. I’m trying to get better with it, but I can do pretty much anything else instead of putting away laundry.
