I've started a fucking household job and wished I hadn't. Send encouragement please!

So, I've had a flat pack cabinet staring at me for about a month. Get up early today, think oh I'll do that little job, won't take long.

Which it didn't.

Except now my lounge looks like a car boot sale as there's less space in the new cabinet (declutterung opportunity I thought, stupudly), I've been at it for 2 hours an completely lost the will to live.

Gah. I always do this, then ends up taking weeks to get back on top of things. I started decorating the conservatory in November, there still isn't a light in there as I've procrastinated for MONTHS knowing how much of a big, long job it will be (I can do it all, but fuck me it's so overwhelming).

AND I haven't even got any Easter eggs to scoff.

If this helps? I decluttered 1 year ago and did a carboot sale with the stuff.

Some of it didn't sell and has been sat in the garage ever since 🤣

My child sorted out his toys at Christmas and made a box for charity, it's still at the top of the stairs

There's a cupboard in the hallway to cover the gas meter and it's still not painted and bare mdf from 2017

I’d start by rectifying the Easter situation. 🤣
