Time Management

I have always been a procrastinator, like from birth. Seriously, ask my mom: I was three weeks overdue.

I spent some time yesterday cleaning...and by that I mean doing dishes and throwing away old junk mail. My bedroom is a disaster of clean, but wrinkled, clothes that were on the bed but now are on the floor. (How is it that I have so many clothes and never have anything to wear?) But as soon as I was able to clear a path through the mess, my enthusiasm was decidedly over.

I know there are people who clean up as soon as they are done cooking, never leave a towel on the floor, and whose floorboards are spotless. These freaks insist on cleaning and "getting stuff done" before they sit down to watch TV.

Me? The only reason I have clean spoons is because I canceled my cable last week and I'm tired of Vampire Wars on Facebook.

But are these other people any happier than I am? Are their lives improved? I used to be like them...back when I was married and felt I had to live up to the hype. But now...oh lordy, a nap is so much more inviting.
