Procrastinators Anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from chronic procrastination.
Procrastination is the grave in which opportunity is buried.
First time.
Well, this is my first post. I figure I might as well try it out, since I've been fighting my procrastination for 5 or 6 years with few results. Today I will:
Complete my Networking lab
Thomas C., 9:27 a.m.
Had a very bad day yesterday--got into a big fight with my wife, and we are still chilly towards each other. Talking, but distantly. Hoping to resolve it soon.
Anyway, here's my to-do list today:
* drop off found check card at bank
* call Classroom Technology
* get master copies from library
* drop off master at copy shop, email students
* balance checkbook
* call uncle: Happy Birthday
* write lecture for class 2, review lecture for class 1
* pay bills
Thomas C., 4:06 p.m.
Talked a little with my wife, feel a little less bad. In the meantime, mired in item 4, getting the master set of copies done for dropoff. Almost done, but took forever! As it so often does. Gotta call uncle, then start on lecture, at least, then balance checkbook.
Glad things are getting better for you.
Sometimes when I'm in a space like that all I see is that little space. A little time usually helps.

Regards Rexroth
glad to read you're going to a meeting
Let us know how you did with the meeting. I'm an AA member, and 12 step meetings seem to always make things better--or perhaps keep me from making things worse!

Thanks Lark, I got to the meeting and I didn't like it. Anyway I'm glad I went. I will post later or tomorrow about it because I can understand better where I am at with DA and procrastination.
Now for bed.
