FUN MONDAY – 4 YEARS AND 2 WEEKS LATER

Why do today what you can put off for tomorrow?  Because Tomorrow never comes!

 I cannot tell you how many

 Hats,

Scarf,

Blankets

Bibs

Burp cloths

Quilts

Scrapbooking projects

 I intended to finish and there are quite a few that never got beyond the planning stages.

First I make a list of everything I want to do.

Then I go shopping for the items that I need to complete the projects and often I buy more than I need or add to the list.  Usually shopping trip involve dinner some where so I get home late so I cannot start of finish anything this day.

Then I surf the net to see how others are making the same things that I have on my list to make.  I know how to make these things but it fun to see how other make them.  Maybe there is a tip I can use.  This usually last all day so I cannot finish anything is day either.

I could continue but I will leave that for another day.  Really I will tell you about it later.

Today I want to tell you why I should never put anything off for tomorrow again. 

My dear sweet hubby, recently he sold his car for junk and received about 200.00 for it.   How did it get to that point? 

The compressor was no longer working so he did not have heat in the winter nor air-conditioning in the summer.  I am sure I am over simplifying the problem but that is how it was explained to me when he parked it in his father’s driveway. 

He was going to fix it himself and started the process but then realized it was more work than he wanted to do but he planned on having  someone else take care of it.

 So after two years went by he bought some struts for it because he remember that they needed to be replaced and now the car began to look like a planter and then soon it looked like a habitat for the local wildlife. 

After two more years went by he decided to see if it would start and found that the battery was dead so he planned on getting a battery for it.

Two week ago he finally sold it for junk and received 200.00 for it. 4 years and 2 weeks to junk the car had he sold it 4 years earlier he would have received more than 200.00 for it.

 He attempted to return the Struts in the original box but they did not take them back because it was beyond the company return policy time limit.

 So  I will finish each one of my projects one by one and actually open that esty store that I have been dreaming about and see if I can earn 200.00 next year.

 Because in 4 years the value of Unfinished projects will not be 2.00!
