I have trouble with procrastination. I feel silly when I actually do the things I have procrastinated for YEARS. It usually takes me anywhere from 5 minutes to 1 day. The chinese couple who had been gracing the engraved anniversary photo frame that my husband gave me for our fifth anniversary? I finally did that yesterday. (We have been married 7 years now!) Took me 20 minutes to find a good picture, put it in the usb, and get it printed at Walmart while I was shopping there.
Then there was the garage to clean. That took me a day. But what a relief and joy to be finally able to park the cars there as the good Lord intended it. I did all this because we had a housewarming party on Saturday and I was inspired to do these things. But I want to intentionally spend the next 31 days focusing on things I have been putting off for years or months and just GET IT DONE.
I do suffer a lot and struggle with self inflicted stress because I keep putting off things I find disagreeable. I help my husband with our business. At the end of the month, there is a day of reckoning. Now, this day can be a lot smoother if I do a bit every week. I just keep postponing it until the end of the month when I get into this mode of snapping at everyone, oh-for-the-love-of-God-why-is-it-taking-so-long wailing. I am a perfectly lovely person to be with at that time as you can imagine.
I will try and write a post everyday with things I have accomplished, if not I will at least update with one line.
