Basement renovation that was supposed to be done by now, is going into major cost overruns, and is disrupting my house: check

Sigh. Sending you relaxing energy from afar ....

[redjo]

Thanks. I haven't forgotten about our next chakra meeting, but you can see why I'm not scheduling it yet. :/

[randysmith]

Yes, very clearly.

For what it's worth, there isn't any criticism in me for you about that. I very much have the opinion that if I want the Chakra groups to be meeting more often, I should get off my duff, make my space locally good for such a meeting, and call it myself. Which maybe I'll eventually do, though my attention feels pretty scattered right now.

I hope ... that you find a way to get in better relationship with your whole life soon.

[redjo]

All these things have good endpoints, which makes them a hassle not a nightmare (the sick ferret being the exception, of course, and she's not necessarily at her end of life just yet). So it's a matter of muddling through and clearing space. At least the weather's nice.

Sorry! It'll get better!

[redjo]

*deep breath* Yeah, it will, and it'll be worth it in the end.

And a big *thank you* to you for all you're having to put up with as a result.

[redjo]

Thanks. *hugs*

Sorry to hear it... hope you find more time for you and the things you want to give time and energy too soon.

[redjo]

Thank you. I believe I have the ability to *make* time, so I just have to make hard decisions between priorities. And really delegate a bunch of stuff, too. Oy.

[catling]

I am very familiar with this struggle, time management is one of my big stressors, too. :/

[dancingwolfgrrl]

Allow me to recommend just doing it on the cancellation front; it's the kind of task where you can easily spend ten times more energy dreading it than doing it and that always sucks. (Ask me how I know! :->)

[redjo]

Agreed. I've actually attempted to delegate the cancellation to M, but if he can't do it by Sunday I'll just get it over with.
