What have you been putting off doing? Why?
Photographers, artists, poets: show us TIME.
Oh this is an easy one for my eyes to rest on. The problem is action. Actions speak louder than words. Have you ever heard of that? I used to say it often when my kids were younger. You can still catch me using that phrase today.
A lot of you know me pretty well by now. So you realize on this Sunday morning when Al is napping I want to desperately get off this chair, push it close to the desk so the space to squeeze in, even a mouse would stand back and rub his whiskers wondering if he could do it.
I want to clean. I am procrastinating against cleaning. You ask what? Oh my gosh! She doesn’t want to clean?
I made a deal with myself this morning. I was going to actually sit down with Al while he ate. I was going to watch the Dr. Charles Stanley show with him. I did these two things. I didn’t even clean the cat box right a way. What’s one more turd to the pile? Really, it can wait, and I am not even wearing that clothes pin over my nose yet.
I did clean his bathroom, but how could I not. I cleaned his body from over night accidents.
Hey, I am still in my night-gown, does that tell you anything?
I will get around to it today, just not yet. I am not going to be in a hurry. I realize it will be waiting for me any old-time.
I told myself, relax, just do it, it’s Sunday!

I am psyching myself up to a really good clean of all the kitchen cupboards inside and out before I go back to work. So may be Wednesday????

I am so pleased to hear that you took just a tiny bit of time for yourself – and it was just a tiny bit, so no guilt allowed. I hope my suggestion of not dusting was a comtributing factor to this marvellous step towards giving yourself a break?
