I have a bit of a hard time making long term decisions.
I don’t know how people can think how they’ll feel in five, ten, or fifty years.
It makes no sense to me that they can plan ahead accordingly, when life will always throw curveballs you can’t anticipate. That’s why it’s a little strenuous for me to commit to things. Right now, for instance, I can’t make up my mind about whether to have my ancient furnace repaired or replaced. I know that sounds like a minor consideration, but there are many ramifications of my decision either way! You see, the ancient furnace is on its last leg. Every few weeks it has a major failure, and I’m constantly calling the Heating, Ventilation, and A/C repair company out to my property. At this point they know my name and have my billing information on file for their repeat visits. I know I can’t continue to pay them for emergency visits and hourly work rates, although I also don’t know if I’m ready to commit to a brand current furnace. Even though I already have a current make and model of heater picked out, I can’t pull the trigger yet. I feel like the moment I purchase a current central heater, I’m signing on for another 5-10 years residing at this house. There’s no point in buying a brand current temperature control system and moving out within the year. Now I’m residing with spotty heat and tons of internal chaos. I’m just not ready to commit to a current furnace!
