Don't put off til tomorrow . . .

A recent event has given me a strong push towards getting at all those things I have put off until tomorrow. I am sure that there are lots of folks who are extremely organized, have all their important papers organized and up-to-date, have a house that is neat as a pin, is all ready for Christmas, let along Thanksgiving. Sadly, there are a lot of us that have that all accomplished only in our best intentioned imagination.

I fall into the best intentions list. Normally, I look around and say this weekend I will get this all organized, or I read the great book 5@Fifty, by Judith D. Grimaldi, and am making to-do lists.

But this time I am hoping things will be different. My lists are all made, my plans are set, and now it is time to do it all. It is times like this that I am glad I am a librarian and work at a library. It may be natural for me to procrastinate, but at least I know that I can find just how to do whatever needs to be done right here at the library. The Library has suggestions and how-tos for everything. Cleaning? Check. Organizing? Check. What documents should I have to prepare for the future? Check. Investing? Check. Planning for retirement? Check. Remodeling or redecorating? Check. Getting a new job or helping my career? Check.

Of course the list can go on and on, but you get the idea. The Library has what you need, even if it is just another way to procrastinate!
