I'm trying very hard to resist the urge to start too many projects and not finish them. Right now my bathroom is about 75% done with the re-hab. I look at the tiles every single day and wish they could come down like wallpaper. I look at the ceiling and see where I let the wall color spill over. But soon enough all of this will be done. Since I'm a recovering perfectionist it will never be as I imagine in my head. It will never be like my friends who have brand new houses or recently rennovated on a larger budget. It will be what I put into it (sweat equity) and George's too when he's free :).
When I feel really overwhelmed by all my ideas, I simply write them down in a notebook that I keep under my coffee table. That way it doesn't roll around indefinitely in my head and drive me i-n-s-a-n-e. It doesn't helped that I watched 2 hours of HGTV on Saturday, a marathon of "Sweat Equity". Luckily it was on basement finishing and garage rennovation for a workshop. But oy vey, if it had been bathroom rennovation, I would be worse off than I am now!
