I started my kitchen renovation three years ago by taking down the old cabinet. I have had no cabinet in my kitchen for three years. I also had tools all over my kitchen for two of those years, but then I finally admitted defeat and put them away.
I'm only exaggerating a little.

I tore the floor off from our hall a year ago to fix a hole under the floor material and replace the laminate. Still pending.
Two years ago I painted the toilet and the door frame is still missing the moulding.
We renovated the kitchen 4 years ago and it's missing all the moulding as well.

Floor replacement is one of the few major projects I finished quickly. In one room I tore out even the old subfloor (you could fall into the basement) and for some reason I really enjoyed the process of putting a new floor in. Take a look at this wide-plank pine. (Old-fashioned but appropriate for a rustic location.) Isn't it gorgeous?
That's off-topic but I couldn't resist showing off. Sometimes I'm still sad that I had to sell that house.
P.S. If I was doing the renovation now, I'd replace the old, dark trim or at least paint the walls a richer color to go with it.

Currently have tools all over my kitchen for the past year too. Don't even have a kitchen project im ignoring! Just a bunch of other random stuff getting ignored instead :/

Ready to continue the next time, whenever it might happen.

Sometimes I have to ignore my deep cleaning motivation because I know it won't be enough to finish the job. I try to save it all up for a better time.
-
I try to only deep clean one corner of the room. If it works, great! I'm a quarter of the way there. If it fails, okay! Most of the room is still usable.

looks good to me

Man, that wine is doing some heavy lifting. I'm not even drinking it and it feels like the room is spinning.
Dear God, the angles!
Lovecraft, probably

Just think about all those administrative tasks you've been neglecting which are piling up. And remember, a few even require you to phone a hotline.
You'll get back to deep cleaning in no time.
Also, have assigned/labeled boxes for everything. And a big bag for whatever doesn't belong to any of them. It's way easier to deal with mess if your brain doesn't need a lot to figure out where to put said items.

Oh shit… do I have ADHD?
-
I mean, with everything out in the open it'll be easier to find things. I say mark it in the win column!!
-
Hah, I never have this problem because I never have deep cleaning motivation, or any other motivation.
:(
-
My solution has entirely just been to own less things and designated spots for every item. The main problem is forcing myself not to get cool things I will never actually use
-
FFS, I definitely have ADHD don't I? My brother has it and I'm already confirmed autistic.
Maybe I can get some meds in 3-5 business years when the NHS hamsters wake up...

Guys, lpt. Get extra laundry baskets. If you find things out of place put it in the laundry basket in a conspicuous place. Dry cups, clothes, books, papers, all goes in the basket. Sort when it gets full or you have the urge.

This would drive my OCD nuts.
