Anti-Procrastination Wednesday PWYC

Post by Twins' Mom »

Time to check off at least one (hopefully more!) of those procrastinated tasks! As Lucylee quoted once "My mother didn't raise a quitter, but she might have raised a procrastinator!"

We all have them, here's a day dedicated to doing something about them.

I have the webinar again today beginning at 10:30 but I'm going to blow off the late afternoon part of it. I was upstairs researching until 8 p.m. last night and want to continue. I'd like to get to the downtown library - maybe tomorrow a.m.? or next week? Right now I need to get ready to be in my seat upstairs around 10:30ish this a.m. The three big things are breakfast, walk the dog and s2s. I need to get moving!

This afternoon I'm supposed to walk R uby for dfriend M. Her dh has knee replacement today.

Looking ahead, tomorrow I have a workout, and on Friday we have an overnight houseguest and a little dinner party for him. I've ordered a catered half pan of lasagna from our favorite restaurant. Only us, the houseguest, a friend from way back, and two other couples who knew him well when he lived here, will be here for dinner. Houseguest and dh will attend a memorial service Friday afternoon, and he will depart back home sometime on Saturday a.m.

Anti-procrastination? Not sure what...so many jobs here to pick from. I've already emptied the dishwasher that I ignored yesterday. But it's just me so I can get away with anything.

Hi!

I need to have a shower. I also have 2 pots to wash. Tonight is leftover spaghetti from last night.

No Walmart today. Just watering the inside plants. It will be a beautiful day here today. Too bad it's soo windy.

The oldest and the youngest cats are outside at the moment.

Good morning, friends.

Twins', you can get away with anything. The dishwasher is just the tip of the iceberg.

We have two specific things on the agenda today, first being a phone appt from a new med pro at 2. Then ds comes after work and school-pickup this afternoon to work on a different configuration of our back steps. I imagine he would like to have our green-eyed boy working with him, but they are sticklers about rules for homework, etc., so we might not see grands.

Otherwise, it is so good to have a day without so much going on, being able to stay home. I have this two-day break, then 2 appts Friday, knowing at the same time I'm out, HRH will be dealing with workmen through the house and yard.

Well, I’m up again at 8:00 am… going to try to get those dang trees again.
But we are under a wind advisory today and it will be freezing temps tonight. I’m thinking we should not put these in the ground today. What do y’all think?
Tomorrow is another day.

Good Morning!
it's soo windy.
I totally agree. The wind is blowing so hard here that satellites are showing our area covered in dust storm. During my morning walk it felt like I was being hit with pebbles. The fierce wind and dirt made me think of what it would feel like to be sandblasted. I decided halfway through my walk that this qualifies as a storm which is my "line in the sand" of when I get a pass from walking. I turned around and came back home with only half of my walk accomplished. I am still counting it as a success though. :) It is predicted to reach peak wind gust around 4pm and then the wind will start decreasing. Normal wind mph here is 15-20. I like our normal wind and am looking forward to it being "Just right" again.

Next up -
** Me - greek yogurt/protein powder chocolate smoothie
**inside - 4 bathtub/showers cleaned.
** Outside - water 70+ plants in pots that are waiting to be put into raised beds.
** Food - Baked potato bar is on today's menu. Start the ingredient prep.
Stay curious. Challenge assumptions. Success loves persistence.
