Hello! As Nicholas was late publishing his Sunday post due to a sleepover, I missed my Monday post and no one in the family noticed until it was too late. I meant to make it up early Tuesday and then early Wednesday and then, well, Thursday’s my day so now I have two to write. Grrr…
I’m thinking that procrastination and I obviously have a close relationship, but clearly it’s more like frenemies than BFFs. Our journey this year is to pare down in any way, shape or form that we can conceive and a significant portion of that is to literally prune our personal belongings and finish unfinished projects, thereby editing the mental flotsam and jetsam we carry around with us. Procrastination is a very bad (and, in my case, lifelong) friend in this regard. Maybe it’s more like a bad relative…
I’m definitely on guard for procrastination and try to stay on top of it, but it’s a challenge when we live in a world in which there is literally always something we could be doing. I had never considered “relaxing” to be a learned activity until I met Glenn. The man just can’t do it. He never learned how. He always has to be “doing” something. He actually sees my ability to relax as a skill…. Jealous?? And, honestly, who am I to mess with a good thing? Therefore, I have to somehow differentiate my chill summer days with actual procrastination. You know…. like this post that should have been up Monday.
I quite enjoy this…
… but wonder where I can stop the ride and get off. It’s a problem. I’ll actually be here again tonight. It’s my night. TTYL, s. xo
