Weekend Reflection...I'm a Procrasta-holic....

Do you ever have one of those weekends when you decide to sleep in late and regret it later? That's me today. I slept in until well until about 1:00 p.m. Let me back-track....I was up until 8:00 a.m. working on a class assignment (don't ask.... lol). Yep. (Silence.....Pregnant pause.....Can you hear the bird's chirping in the background?) . So, needless to say, I was pooped!

Why do we procrastinate? I have my good moments when I utilize time management to the 10th power and other moments when I have a relapse -- similar to someone having a relapse from alcohol or meth. I visualize a PA (Procrastination Anonymous) session. We are all sitting around in a circle and it is my turn to stand. I am looking around hoping and praying that I do not have to speak. The counselor says, "lets extend a warm welcome to......Sonya Ward...Sonya -- can you stand and tell us a little about yourself?"

I stand and say, "My name is Sonya and I'm a Procrasta-holic...." LOL

I continue by saying, "I was sober for a few months and just this week, I had a relapse. My power went out and it went downhil after that. I have been sober for all of 2 hours now."

They clap, others share, we all get a PA sponsor and I go home.

Hopefully, I will stay sober for a while and get a head start on my assignments for Week 3.

Thanks for reading....
