living, luggage, legacy

Why is it the older we get, the more complicated life gets? It used to be so much simpler.
Now, attending to my daily needs can sometimes be an exercise in project management and hand-eye co-ordination.
Take having dessert: before I can have dessert, I need some clean cutlery. To get clean cutlery, I need to wash it. To wash my cutlery, I need to get it from under the pile of dishes, so I can reach it, so I might as well wash the dishes first. But to wash the dishes, I need to clear the drying rack because if I don’t, I’ll have no where to put the washed dishes. To clear the drying rack, I’ve to go and stack up all the clean dishes in the cupboard that’s above my head, and KF is in the way cos he’s cutting the fruit for my dessert!
How like that?
I guess that’s why I like bowling on the Wii. It makes me feel good when I can hit 10 pins with 1 ball.
