Little Things Don't Seem to Matter

It's been several days since I've posted.

Mentally and physically, I've been exhausted. I shut down when that happens, but it doesn't mean that I accomplish anything. I haven't done anything else in the kitchen since my last post, except make a bit of a mess.

I wonder why or how it is that I can leave things without seeing them through to an end? If I trim the fat off of a steak, why are the trimmings still on the cutting mat the next morning?  Why is it so hard for me to pick the mat up and scrape them into the trash?

I am NOT a lazy person. I work hard and get some amazing things done. But there is certainly a disconnect somewhere. I wish I understood it.

On a good note, I emptied all the trash and got the bin out to the curb this week. That's an accomplishment, right?  I wish I could feel like all the little victories do add up and matter.

I even wonder why I care to write this blog. Does it even make a difference? Are there others who are struggling? Or am I simply a disgusting pig that is so damaged that nothing can help?

STOVE--Still need to work on two of the grates

I wanted to show a bit of progress, even though it is slow-going.  As I look at the "before" pictures, I am aghast as to how bad it is. I also have some pictures to share of my cabinets, though I do not have any from before I straightened them.  I'll have to share those at another time.
