10 positive steps a day challenge - 2012

MunniMuncha

Hello peeps - Happy Friday!

TM6 I too am a procrastinator and I find that it is 10x worse thinking about whatever it is that needs to be done than the actually deadly deed itself. I always, always wish I had done things quicker once they have been done and wonder why on earth I had put it off for so long!

Well today I have:

- Booked my weekend away using my tesco vouchers with DH for our silver anniversary (which was last August) where we are going up in a hot air balloon (again using tesco deals) which has been something on my bucket list
- Filled in return form to Amazon for a mobile phone that my DH ordered for me, but I don't want it as the one from Tesco for £9.97 suits me just fine
- Made a couple of appointments for my regular customers
- Only money spent has been for DD to go to cadets
- Updated spreadsheets

Think that's about it. Working in the morning so early night for me after a nice hot luxurious bath (oooh! think that's another positive):j:j

Have a great weekend everyone :wave:

Good Morning all. Yes its windy in my part of the country too.

I TOO AM A TERRIBLE PROCRASTINATOR. Its there with my over eating and over spending.

Why do we do these things ? I know it will only cause me hurt, pain and stress later.

Not much on my list for today, as I have my yr old GD staying with me.
