- A very light snow, just enough for viewing. It all melted in a few hours.
- Took a pain pill.
- Read for one hour
- Went back to bed
- Got on to the computer with my new library card
- Watching immense pine tree and my favorite overgrown bush out the window with snow on them
Pains of the day:
- Only two phone calls...one to remind me to pick up pills at Walgreens and one from the NRDC wanting me to donate $25 a month
- No time for exercise what with all of my lazing around
- I just tried to add an article about lists but I don't know where it went
- Someone wants me to save the newspaper for her. But I like to CUT THINGS OUT. I am not going to stop doing that just for her. I will just try to cut more carefully.
Just finished a short and delightful book.....The art of procrastination : a guide to effective dawdling, lollygagging and postponing ( or, getting things done by putting them off) , by John Perry.
I liked the book because he provides a justification for procrastination. This was refreshing, because everybody else just tells you how to change yourself and become a non-procrastinator. My favorite chapter is called, A plea for the horizontally organized. His idea is to get a VERY LARGE lazy susan for all of the piles (say, 15 feet in diameter). I know I have been instructed to get everything verticle, but like the author of this book, I don't think I could cope with having all of my projects in file folders. Afriend loaned me this book because she thought I would enjoy it and I did.
