I really struggled with today’s threads – in fact, you could say what a task.
From finding any game words to unlocking the tension – which I eventually got after finding what and chore separately – it was all a bit of an unusual match, just as my attempts to stay on top of household tasks.
I know people who actually enjoy making the dishes – or “washing up,” as we call it in Britain – convincing themselves that it is a valuable bit of attentive time where they can listen to a podcast and do something useful while immersing their hands in warm soapy water. And these are people with dishwashers in their homes.
That said, I also have my wonders. I actually look forward to “bin day,” one day a week, when I feel like I’m getting rid of waste instead of acquiring more of it.
