I like you, was raised in a dysfunctional family, to put it mildly.

Me, I am the opposite, I handle everything, like now. Must be done, must be addressed
without any dilly dallying around.

We children of alcoholics/addicts usually tend to be people of extreme behaviors.

I am 64 years old and am attempting to curtail my aggressiveness, to sit back and let the
papers pile up, not jump up immediately after eating and load the diswasher and so on.

Honestly, I need to take time to smell the roses before I kick the bucket, I need to learn how to procrastinate, it is in my best interest to do so, I keep telling myself "Dolly, balance, life is all about balance, you can do this...Rome wasn't built in a day...relax."

I'll keep you posted on my progress, however, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting, I may never accomplish my goal!

Thanks for sharing..I do understand!
