Hi everyone. Hope this works, as I haven't been able to logon all day. In any event, I had a busy day, reasonably productive, with several interruptions. Will post again soon.

Hi!

Since moving to my current location a year ago, this Spring has been the first season that I have been walking to/from work several days a week. So the walking commute is what I did for Earth Day today.

I had a volunteer activity this evening. I drove to it, since it was 6 miles round trip; but that is ok, because I did walk for the shorter commute to work.

Tonight: Now to read a chapter in some recovery books before bed.

Have a good night, everyone! :)

Thank you, gals & guys, for being here! :)

I'm back home from work, and can do a little more time bingeing on the site. Wink

I'm going to see how many of the outstanding issues I can resolve tonight.

I am really stuck, haven't even been posting here since I'm so paralyzed. But I know my inaction just adds to my overwhelming "to do" list, and makes me feel even more guilty about all the things not done, so here is a better-late-than-never short Check in:

calls to A, C, G, C, D (at least 3 of these!)
e-mails to R, P, J
work on M document

Thanks for the online support here!

Good morning . . . or I guess that would be good afternoon!

I'm offically off work today but I've been checking email and I might try to finish one thing that I had a problem with yesterday afternoon.

I got up early and went to the gym and the grocery store . . .the kids are coming over for dinner. Then I took a nap!! I've been doing nothing for the last hour or so and it's time to get moving.

First up - plan the rest of my day.

Check back at 1.

So tired, tired of waiting...

I've been waiting three hours on sheetrock guy to come.
I've been waiting a day for roofer to come fix a persistent leak in the NEW roof they installed months ago.

This is great for a procrastinator because I feel like I'm doing something while I'm waiting. Unfortunately, this feeling is misleading, and I am, alas, doing nada.

Ah, the pitfalls that await the procrastinating side of me.

Time to call them again.

Meanwhile, I will try to concentrate on posting receipts. Yes, this is what I will do!

Gotta laugh at that. If you all hadn't been carrying on about the chat, I never would have updated the site.
