We have these poke weeds here that I swear compete with the bean stock in Jack & the bean stock. They have taken over the side of my house & in 2 weeks are about 7ft tall.

If I work in the yard, inside the house is ignored. I am either too exhausted from outdoor work to even touch the inside of too focused on indoor to get outside. I need to clone myself into indoor & outdoor me. Then some volunteer work for myself is totally exhausting & nothing around the house gets done. I was so exhausted after all day volunteering with flower decorations at the horse park for the show this weekend then worked outside until after dark (10pm). I fell into bed without even bothering with food or shower until next morning.

House & yard work are exhausting.
You two sound like your in the same boat as me. Today it is raining so I don't have to figure out what will take priority on the list it's indoor stuff. No one has done anything so now I have to try and get the regular stuff done and a bit of the to-do list done while grandson is out. I'm getting really tired of everyone just assuming I have tones of time and would love to do... Yes I would have enjoyed seeing my daughters new place but this weekend has been booked for months.
