sinking ships

Twice today I've read the same thing having never seen it before, about amateurs building the Ark, professionals The Titanic. Maybe it fits with my good enough blog of yesterday. Tho it doesn't seem fair on those who have spent ages training to become good at something. Today I learned how to wallpaper and whilst the end result isn't brilliant, it will certainly do. And, after a lot of grumping about doing it, I did feel a sense of achievement for having done something that at the start of the day I couldn't do. I don't like having to care for a house by myself, there are too many tasks that I just don't know enough about. My Dad tried several times to explain the whole ballcock situation to me last week when the loft flooded but I just couldn't get my head around it. Still, whilst I'm not the perfect homeowner, or parent, or friend, or anything else, I guess I'm good enough. I don't need to know everything about everything. I just need to be a bit more accepting of my interdependence. I also still feel like I need a holiday – I'm looking forwards to going back to work for a rest as this has been a tad too stressful for my liking!
