Starting something you couldn't finish
Finnbar says: I used to know a guy who tattooed LOVE across his left knuckles, but didn't tattoo HATE on the other knuckles because he was right-handed and realised he couldn't finish. Ever run out of skills or inspiration halfway through a job?

Had this same problem just last night
Assembled the ingredients for the Mojo Verde recipe, neatly beside the chopping board, all ready for the 5 mins it would probably take.
By the time I'd finished chopping the coriander and transferred it to a bowl, the knife was removed to the washing up. Retrieved the knofe only to find the oil and vinegar had been 'put away because I thought you'd finished with it'.
It's an affliction of my better half that, if you aren't:-
A/ actually using the item in question
B/ Within 6 inches of the item in question or
C/ You stop to look something up or talk to someone or take a phonecall etc etc
then the items must be put away.
Immediately
I actually barred her from her own house when fitting a shower because she kept putting away tools, fasteners, materials and the instructions if I even looked away from them for 30 seconds!
