another era

Some of those things will be obsolete by the time you get back to them.

committed

Sometimes finishing a project is less work than cleaning up the materials you were planning to use.

back in

When you get your energy back, don't just dive right back into the same project that depleted your energy in the first place. Pace yourself, or change your approach.

unopened

Where there is a project you can’t seem to start, there is a pile of materials you are not using.

overhang

Finish a repair or project not just to get the result but because it represents an obstacle in its unfinished state.

wrap-around

Some projects are so mind-bending that you can’t expect to work on two of them on the same day and do them well.

pitch

A one-line summary is not enough to help you remember a project idea. If you have time, write about a page. Mention the most compelling advantage or benefit of the project along with key distinctions that will help it succeed.
