"One job makes three"!

Agree! But don't always have the patience to follow the logical sequence and tend to skip around. Currently have 3 jobs half-done (not counting 2 knitting projects).
I put it down to my long-standing talent for procrastinating and displacement!

Phew! Refreshing to know I'm not alone! ???

Definitely the case here currently!

We call them "just jobs" in our house. Usually relating to something DH wants to do in the workshop or garden.

Oh, I'll just go and do X only to discover X can't be done without A,B, and C

Me too!

All the time!!
