You misunderstood a bit. I am not doing all that now; I just mean usually. I have not been to work for four weeks. I have done nothing but go through all this and try to recover.
I do try to do things for myself, and things I enjoy. I have my little pressure-reliefs, and I know how to make the most of little things. But I am with you on other people doing my chores and projects. I would rather do things myself, and that is no doubt part of my overload. The only things around my house that I have contracted out in my twenty or so years of home ownership were the roof and my recent furnace/AC installation. I’ve done plumbing, electric, carpentry, welding, and more. And, of course, the yard in season. Can’t help it; I a do-it-yourself-er. But I hate that damn yard! I do the least I can get away with.
The only thing that is going to help is to retire, which will free up time and take away a lot of stress. And that is coming very soon. I am 68, 69 in the spring. The time is nigh for retirement. It will probably be this year. Yes, you should stay retired and enjoy what time you have left. That is exactly what I am thinking.
As far as being a message from God, well, happy to help if that what God wants. 😉
