Musing For Today

You know what makes performing so many tasks such a drag?  The fact that most anything you do has to be done piecemeal.  Even the simplest chores seem to require a "10-step instruction manual".

For instance:  In order to clean the floor in your living room you have to move all the furniture, tables, bookshelves, and cabinets to another room, then fill a bucket with soapy water, wipe up, rinse rag, dump out the dirty water and refill with soapy water again.

Then, when finished, move all that furniture and other stuff back into the living room where they were.   Sort of like "working for a moving company" and "doing janitorial work" at the same time.

Just about any task you take on, whether mandated or by your own free choice, has to be done in a similar manner:  doing laundry; washing dishes; going shopping; transporting yourself to an appointment; filling out forms; logging onto online accounts (e-mail and password); even engaging in hobbies or certain forms of recreation entail a lot of "preparation" beforehand.
