In Canada, our taxes have to be filed by April 30. Well, I'm actually on-track and will not be late. All that's left is to print out the 12-month spreadsheet and transfer the relevant numbers into the document I send my accountant. I'm self-employed but not incorporated, so I send him the data (all 30 or so columns' worth) and he crunches the numbers. I'm hoping for a little refund this year, due to some personal, one-time expenses in 2008 that were thankfully tax-deductible.
I've just been surfing a few weight-loss sites, drinking in the wisdom and skipping over the ones that concentrate on points, being "good" or "bad" (i.e. I ate three carrot sticks vs. I ate salsa and chips), and how many calories the writers ran, biked or weight-trained-off.
Now, I'm hungry as heck, though it's only 11:20 a.m. Truth be told, I like to eat all my meals early, which sort of screws up having supper with the family at 6:30 p.m. Yesterday, I noshed (healthy, but noshed nevertheless) through supper preparation, so I had quite a light supper in the end. I've really got to go and have lunch very soon, before I eat this computer!
Here are the objects of my procrastination: finishing a small translation that's due on Thursday, taking a walk and doing some yoga. So now, off to lunch, then I should take a walk, do my translation, do some yoga and get supper ready.
How much am I actually going to do? Placing bets, anyone?
Bad and Getting Worse

Hi Wendy,
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to "meet" you as well! It's great to have someone understand the issue of being small - when I look at other people at my weight they look fine, I certainly do not look fine. And every pound is truly a struggle, although I'm trying to get away from worrying about the poundage so much as how I feel.
I am just getting into Yoga and really enjoying it. It does put me in touch with what my body is doing. When I do cardio, I can tell when I can go a bit longer or don't tire out so fast, but with Yoga, each pose gives me an idea of what my body is doing and I feel great as I am able to do more and more of the poses properly. I like Pilates, too; you should try that if you haven't yet.
I am with you on the procrastination - I am constantly fighting my own excuses to get things done. I always want to say "tomorrow" but I'm learning to hoist myself off the couch and get it done and ignore that inner laziness.
I look forward to reading more of your posts! :)
Hi Judy!
