Gettin' Stuff Done!

Holy productivity! Not only was it a CRAZY busy day at work (no time for a lunch break, and I stayed really late), but I got a lot done!

- Stopped at tux store to confirm stuff for wedding

- Decorated my boss’ office…LIKE A BOSS!

- Mailed off a thank you note

- Mailed off a baby gift

- Wrapped three presents

- Got fiancé to follow up on some wedding things

- Made a big to-do list for the rest of this week

I set the hourglass timer on my phone for an hour of idle time, and I still have about 9 minutes left. It’s keeping me from losing track of time & wasting all of my at-home hours. My fiancé thinks it might be keeping me TOO aware, because I didn’t relax much at all tonight while I was “on the clock”.

Fiancé’s argument: You suck at relaxing in the first place. Why are you putting even more stress on your down time?

My argument: I’m stressed because of things I keep putting off! Making myself do some of these things will ease my stress, instead of paralyzing myself like I normally do. Also, YOUR FACE!

Although I’m a pro at procrastination, I am horrible about relaxing. Really. HORRIBLE. I will lay down with my fiancé, but he’s the only one who can nap (for 3 hours at a time!!). I can’t even sleep on international flights. When I took my landlord to small claims court, I didn’t sleep well for about 3 months. I’ve developed nervous tics that only close friends will recognize. When someone gave me a meditation CD, I literally checked the back to see which track was the shortest - because I was running late for something and too stressed to meditate. Ha!

So, with the wedding –and lots of work projects- looming, you can imagine the amount of relaxing I’ve done. I think the gym is a good idea this week.

Another busy day is on deck. Since I lost my wallet, I’ve got to go get a new driver’s license so I can get a marriage license. Oh, and drive. J Plus, I checked the class schedule at my gym. I think I’m going to try spin class on Wednesday. Anyone wanna join me??

In keeping with the “sloth” theme for this week:

Baby sloths (they look like they’re wearing pajamas at the end) CUTE OVERLOAD!
