No more delays

jon_chaisson I'm not looking at this as a problem per se, just something that can be adjusted. I've always been terrible about delaying things, be it homework or simple errands. Most of the time it's me just distracting myself and half-seriously saying 'I'll get to it in a moment' (where 'in a moment' = anywhere from a few minutes to several hours).
Today I needed to do a few errands (get quarters, drop something off at UPS for A, and buy a few ingredients for a post-Thanksgiving dinner) and it took me until after lunch to get to it. Granted, it's my day off from work and I allowed myself to screw around for a while, but I kind of had to give myself a hard nudge to turn away from my distractions and do them. I still need to make corn muffins for tomorrow, however. And I was hoping to catch up on my blogging and maybe even make a mixtape or two (finally) so that I can spend tomorrow not having to do anything but hang out and enjoy the day.
That's one of my resolutions for 2023: work on the delays. Again, I'm not looking at it as a problem, only as an adjustment.
