Non-Op

When my house was "a mess" and I didn't seem to have enough time or energy to "clean it up," somebody labeled me dysfunctional, a buzzword that seemed to imply a permanent disability of some kind. In the old days it was called a major cop-out. I, personally, take exception to being labeled dysfunctional. I may have been non-op, but I didn't want to believe I was lazy (unwilling to work, characterized by idleness). I just had more to do than I could. I didn't know how to manage the demands on my time and energy.
