I am dreading cutting a hole in the ceiling and dealing with the issue. I have been thinking about it for a few days now. I am sure I can do the work. I have some kind of action paralysis that keeps me from moving forward. This paralysis keeps me from other projects also.
What causes this analysis paralysis? I think there are multiple factors-laziness, lack of confidence, depression. I don't like things messed up. I am sure having a big hole in the ceiling is not going to make me happy.

ReplyDeleteAre you insured ?
I am insured, but it nothing is covered under $500. This repair will cost about $100 in materials and $0 in my labor. My aggravation doesn't cost anything either.
DeleteYou will stare at it constantly, toss and turn your way though a bad night's sleep. Make sure you do something more than tape a piece of plastic over it.
ReplyDeleteI have opened the ceiling and found the leak.
DeleteI can understand that. I tend to dwell on things that need to get done so that I cannot relax until I do them. I hope you're able to get it fixed relatively easily.
ReplyDeleteThe problem is never as bad as the worry either.
