Half assed

I used to be a perfectionist. But then depression came along. And adulthood.  And parenthood.

And I realized that sometimes the options aren't good versus bad. The options are partially-done or not at all. Half-assed or no-assed.

And now, when I start to go under due to other people's expectations (or my expectations), I remind myself that half-assed is better than no-assed.
