Procrastination

The Goal: pack boxes by Friday

The attempts went something like this:

Get out of bed (eventually ... still on holiday). Transfer books from bookshelf to spare room for packing, put clutter from floor onto bookshelf... things moving too fast. Pause. Lay down exercise mat and do Pilates!! Enough 'packing' for one day.

Get out of bed (slightly earlier than the day before). Pick up boxes, pack 3 and a half. Repack one - too heavy, repack another - books stacked the wrong way, repack the third - not packed properly and side collapses! More than enough for one day.

Get out of bed in time for lunch with a friend. Shop. Too much to do today to pack boxes! Must do more Pilates...!


Pathetic aren't I?! I am procrastination with a capital 'P'!! ... Perhaps I should just stop planning as when there's actually a goal, cleaning the windows appeals more! You'll be pleased to know tomorrows goal is to hit the beach - camera in hand, and my boxes?... they remain ready (I forgot to add I did tape all the bases together ready for packing!! Truly!!) yet surprisingly, EMPTY!
