One day maybe I wont procrastinate

Good evening all ,

I am just relaxing after a nice day of doing things that need to be done on a daily basis. Which in the day of wasteland I never got anything really done until the utmost reason. I am always putting things off till tomorrow as a result of that they never truly get done. There is always tomorrow is my phrase that I used while drinking and still do, but in a way less fashion.

My motto is trying to be "do it now" a little faster than before. Under the drunken state that I lived for so long I always had these grandiose plans , I mean between seeing the whole world and making the best herb garden restaurants in the US I had this great vision. When I was not to wasted I could actually think these things and offered good plans to developers. But then that sneaky beast always showed up when this kind of option was on the table.

"the real alcoholic" that truly was the life I led for far to long, but so blessed to be here typing this today. Its just a nice peace of mind now not to worry about what I am or what I am going to be. Now in this life of sobriety its okay to go ahead to shoot for something and fail, I dont worry about the he/she /they said anymore. I am just that me. And in all honesty I am a good thing. I am saying tonight is give this life of sobriety a chance , it really is a wild ride of kindness.

Do not hide under the leaves and the bushel. Arise and do what your heart desires, even if you dont know what that is try something new.

Smile cause sobriety looks good on YOU!!!!!!!!!!!


Good love, Inda

Oh yeah, I'm a procrastinator, too. I did my taxes 2 weeks ago and helped my daughter do hers last weekend. I'm sure there's lots of things I should be doing right now!

I am another procrastinator, for certain, or at least I was.
Now, I can't stand those days I wake up and just want to be lazy, drives me crazy and I have to force myself to get outta bed or away from the computer. Never would've thought I'd feel that way about slacking, but it actually feels pretty good.

Boy, I love pierogi.

I don't procrastinate any more, or less, than when I was drinking but I stress out about it a whole lot less. If it doesn't get done today, it might get done tomorrow. Alls I knows is, I think I'll go to sleep sober tonight.
