That when it comes about to you?, I have a few times I have that happen but I don't think much of it and don't mind it when it does, like I did with yard work recently and gave a estimate of time but took me a little bit longer to do and get done with it, I try to assess my job at hand and go from there, it's for the most part accurate but not all the time either, but sometimes I will do the next day depending on certain things such as if the job or project can wait till tomorrow and weather… read more

I very seldom set a dead-line to finish a project but I will work at the project until I get it done no matter how long it takes.

It takes as long as it takes me. I try not to set deadlines for myself as my health issues get in the way too often and then I end up being angry with myself. So I just don’t set deadlines. That way if I’m done quicker or when I figure it should be, it’s ok and so is it if it takes longer than one would expect.

I list all my projects in a to-do list app. I try to prioritize my list by getting the outdoor stuff being done first before the snow starts flying. If the weather doesn't cooperate, I go grocery shopping or do some indoor projects. Right now I'm working on painting several items on the outside of the house, weeding, mowing, and trimming. My last outdoor project will be cleaning out the garage. Home ownership is so fun!!

I'm a go with the flow kind of gal. I get done what I get done every day no expectations. If I don't finish something I can pick it up another day. I do have an art project I need done by November. Requires painting and writing a lullaby on it I made up for my grandkids. My first great grandson is due in November so I'd like to have that ready for my 1st born grandson and his beautiful fiancé. It always calmed and put all 7 of mine to sleep and would like to pass it down to the next generation. So that gives me 2 1/2 months since we are going to CO for Thanksgiving and to meet him. And spoil him and hug him and kiss him! Working on the design in my head!

I don't worry about it, I know what I need to get done and I work at it in my own pace. It will get done w/ how ever much time it takes me to.
