Hi Pro Buddies!

This morning at the gym I did my full cardio, stretching, and ab exercises.

At work this morning, I answered some emails. At lunchtime, I did an errand, bought & ate lunch, and did an on-line errand. After lunch, I did some projects from my assignment list, and did some other emails. At the end of the day, I highlighted my list for tomorrow, to help with a quick start.

Arriving at home, I have fixed & eaten dinner. A thunderstorm is getting started. If I get to update my CI later, I will; but it will also depend how I think the storm is doing.

8:10pm. Yay, one more pile sorted! :) During the thunderstorm, I kept doing Just A Little Bit More. Various parts of the pile went into: the trash, the shredder, a new much smaller pile, on the bookshelf, or in a small pile to take to work. As I was finishing up, I noticed outside it had stopped raining and thunderstorming so I could get back online :) Next: I will do just the tinest bit of puttering around before getting ready to sleep. After 1.5 years of P.A. I'm reaching a time where parts of the condo Stay Cleaned Up from day to day with minimal effort, and I can work on additional small areas that are hopefully also going to Stay Cleaned Up with minimal daily/weekly effort. That's my goal anyway! ;)

Have a great night, everyone! :)

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

Hi All,

Haven't been here in quite some time. Need lots of help with my procrastinating. I think it is tied in with depression. I procrastinate everywhere and right now - in my job!! When I started here I noticed most people were not working but on their computers, etc. O.k., so I was judgemental, and now I'm just like them. I don't want to steal time. I have piles on my desk that need to get done. I also have this "I odn't care" attitude about most stuff. Think it's a defense mechanism. Just want to begin with a list of things that I need start doing:

1. Go through piles and write a to do list from them.
2. Go through piles at home and start filing and throwing things out that I don't need.
3. Re-organize files
4. Write down my food

I also feel in some way this has to do with my perfectionism defect too. When I start to have success or feel accomplished, I start procrastinating again.

Glad to be back, really need help.

Thanks,

I little slow getting going this morning, but I had a pretty productive day yesterday, so I'm not going to freak out about it too much.

Tasks for today are:
*Work on VAD/RA proposal
->Finish proposal intro
->Tentative doses/time points (though I'd still like to write up the rationale for these decisions more clearly)
->Read book section about choosing # of replicates
->Microburst proposed analysis section
*Work on G's project
->Start fg runs on seqs
->get motif comparison code running (OK, I have a basic version of this running...I'd ideally like to get a more updated version of TRANSFAC, but am having trouble with this)
->figure out whether I need new bg run
*List of expt. skills I need
*Write up hh and fgf results (if I have time) (I might get around to hh pathway, don't think I'll manage fgf)
*email DG, deacons, ce, family (will do this in the evening)
*Budgeting, pay bills (will do this in the evening)

This is an ambitious list, but I'll try to get as far as I can. 

OK, I'm going to start with an hour's work on VAD/RA proposal, then I'll work on G's project for a bit.

Good morning All,

I have done an excellent job of procrastinating this morning, for the last three hous I have tittled  but now after reading some of the posted materials I am committed to getting things done.  First for the next 15 minutes I will create a time action and will bookend with a action plan for tasks through 12 noon.   I can only take baby steps at this point I am so resistant to structured living.
