I think we all have these bits of unfinished business. The painting in the hallway, waiting for months to be hung, The pile of the laundry sink that will rot before they are hand washed.
The burnt-out lightbulbs that are only replaced when on the darkness.
And it occurred to me. as I was frothing my milk one morning, that these imperfections in our homes reflect something quite beautiful about our lives. Well,"I' m going to turn over a new leaf I told her "I'm going out to buy a new lid tomorrow"
I didn't of course. it been two weeks since that conversation But I'm absolute, definitely going to buy it soon.

I have unfinished iced business here as well, Sis. Come help me clean out the linen closet. It won't take but an hour! It is a terrible mess on the floor and the first shelf up.
It will help you get warm after a cold ocean drive!

I have tons of unfinished business of that kind! I'd call them work in progress :-) But it seems they are eternally work in progress!
Dearest Michiko san,
That is only human!
In magazine pictures everything looks like a fairytale but in real life there is dirty laundry, broken things, floors to be cleaned etc. etc.
We all look for the right time, moment and weather to get things done.
BUT at times, the satisfaction is so great when we tackle those jobs!
Hugs,
Mariette
