Celebrate holidays. Cool, it’s halloween, eh I’ll eat a couple pieces of candy. Cool, it’s christmas, let me chug down at least some egg nog. I just can’t get into the habit of decorating because to me, it’s just more work.

    Doing the dishes, vacuuming, washing my car, mowing the lawn … Pretty much any task that I can’t just do once and be over with. Feels pointless to do stuff that I’ll just need to do again in a few weeks or so.

      I feel that. Especially when cleaning the apartment around. Dust is infectious on every surface, it’ll come back within the week and just build again from where it left off. It’s just tiring to have to deal with that on a constant basis while wasting money on cleaning products that promise it’ll get rid of it for prolonged periods of time.

      And when shit has hair around? That’s even more annoying. I get plastic utensils, plastic plates/bowls and paper plates to reserve myself from having to clean so much. I reserve actual dish washing to a dishwasher to spare myself.

      Same here, to a certain degree. I do it as soon as I come from work so I can “reward myself” with rest/cuddling/videogames after. I’m also a bit of a maniac regarding tidiness so I guess that helps. 🤷‍♂️
