Procrastination

[ Edited ]

I have been procrastinating for the last four days. I just keep procrastinating doing the bills. I just did them some days ago but I've got to do them again. I find myself procrastinating more since I stopped drinking coffee.  I've got to give myself a swift kick in the rear. Anyone else here procrastinating lately?

 

UPDATE

I just paid my bills.

I've been procrastinating for the last 50 years. I'm very good at it. Luckily my husband and children are the opposite.

It depends on what needs done.  I pay bills the same day I receive them and go grocery shopping when I need to and change sheets, cook and do dishes but I put off doing big chores like cleaning out the basement or garage.

 

I started the basement about two weeks ago but didn't finish.  I really need to step up and just get it done...one of these days.

@Mindy D.  If you had auto bill pay at your bank, you wouldn't even have to think about it as they do it for you.  Plus you save a ton on postage.

I am a master procrastinator.  My to-do list will have the same items on it for days...or weeks...or...🥹

I pay all of the bills online, most of them on automatic payment.  I have never had an issue, @Mindy D.

@Kachina624 only if you switch to auto pay or e-bills to the bank.

As much as I hate paying bills I won't let anyone except our supplement insurance company dip into our accounts.

@CelticCrafter. I got my first PC in 1995, and have been using bill pay ever since.  You still get the paper bills but the bank pays them.  I've never had a late or misdirected payment or one for the incorrect amount.   You are not allowing some entity to "dip" into your account; it's carefully controlled.

I find that the less time I spend on social media sites, the more I get done.
