All my chores have overrun my life. It seems like that. They definitely take my time.
To mow the yard, over a half hour right there. No way to make it faster unless I was running. If I had one of those robot mowers that's always out there munching, of course it would go haywire and would be eating the neighbor's field. So I mow on!
Then the dishes. Then the catbox. Then the dog out for the last time today, which I haven't done yet, now that I think of it. Then the garbage. Then some exercises. Then get a little cleaned up (from mowing the yard). Then to bed. The day's shot right there.
Too much time gets chewed up.
