Procrastinating…

So I’m supposed to be working on my new AIT job. I’m supposed to be updating the membership database with the renewal information that has been pouring into my mailbox over the last two weeks. It’s here on my desk, a dozen or so forms waiting for my attention. So what am I actually doing, I’m doing all those other things I’ve been putting off.

Balancing the checkbooks, answering e-mails (sorry Charles I know it’s been a while), cleaning out the kitchen cupboards, re-organizing my music library on ‘The Precious’, vacuuming, making a birthday card (sorry Nance, I’m really late with that one), rummaging around in the garage to find a set of allen wrenches so I can tighten the bolts on my little utility cart that’s starting to get a bit too rickety,… I’m doing all of those jobs that I’ve been procrastinating about for weeks (okay, months).

You know I’m seriously procrastinating when I’m doing all of my other procrastinated jobs to avoid this one.

It’s not such a bad job, really, just a lot of little bits of info that have to be updated so I can do a merge document to create a new phone directory of members and then make mailing labels for the newsletter for April and then extract info to produce the list of people who are due to renew this month.

I really seriously want to go out and take a long walk but I’m waiting for the guy to come and FINALLY fix the leaks in the heating system.

Hmmm, you know since I’m stuck home anyway, this is a great opportunity to do all those things I’ve been meaning to do…Oh well, on that note…

That is all.
