The thing with cleaning and procrastinating is that when I start doing something I get overwhelmed by all that needs to be done. Just like when I believed I could not stop drinking.
Ok. So. Take time. Breathe. And only think of now because I am only here now. I am not in the future. And come to think of that. I am not in the past either. So I am free in this moment. Wow.
So if I am free why should I be cleaning? Because it makes me happy. It makes me happy to follow the internal voice that says: ‘time to clean’. And It makes me happy to have a clean house. And hormones that say: ‘you might…. be inviting somebody soon’ play a part in this too. I like biology. It works splendidly. 🙂

Sometimes I love cleaning and at other times I get overwhelmed, like you said! I like your reasoning…that’s nice. 😀 I have to remember to follow those steps when I get overwhelmed…breaaaaaaaaaaaaaaathe.

I got through 30 minutes of cleaning no problem. And then I think: ooh, I have been doing SO WELL! I deserve a break. It really is like an addiction.
