Ugh. I don’t even want to think about this right now.

I blew air out of my mouth and into my face mask as I said the words that are the title of this post moments ago. I was reading an email on my personal account. Another bill to pay. Do nothing, and minimum payment will be made. Proactively respond, and pay down some of the principal, too. “Ugh. I don’t even want to think about this right now.”

How many times a day do I say or think that? How about you? What small (or large) decisions do we procrastinate on that could set repercussions for our lives long into the future?

I teach adult education, including high school equivalency test prep, adult basic education, and Work Ready for Corrections, a workplace readiness course at a correctional facility. I am married with two sons in high school. I have a dry sense of humor and try not to take myself more seriously than necessary.
