Aunty Acid by Ged Backland for November 10, 2023

Never.

Typical.

Me either. I remember once as a kid, I had chores every Saturday but I would always goof around all day and do them at the last minute, and all day it would hang on my mind that I still had the chores to do. One Saturday my mother got me up around 8:30 and told me to do all the chores right away and by 9:30 or so I was all done with them and could enjoy the Saturday cartoons without worrying about the chores. Did I do it that way from then on? Of course not!

I don’t procrastinate… I just keep forgetting what I have to do!

We’re with you there, Aunty!

Always put off what you could do today tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.

Now that I am retired, I have to make my own “Honey-do” list so I don’t forget things.

My motivation now is do it so I will stop worrying about it.

Remember Veterans Day folks. All gave some. Some gave all.

Never put off until tomorrow what you can put of until the day after tomorrow. That is Aunty’s motto.

Oh, ACK!!! I’m spending the day doing 15-minute “chores” I could have done months ago. . .but doing them ALL on (in?) one day makes me feel SO virtuous. . .

Tomorrow is the procrastinators favorite word.

I know this ‘cause I’m the President of the procrastinators club.

Don’t you at least have a sense of accomplishment?

I do this constantly. Problem is, I finally break down and get one of them done, but there’s another one always waiting. Seems endless sometimes.

Yes. Always that feeling after finally having completed something.

Make a “to do” list and I’ll ignore it later.

You are a role model for us all.
