Delayed Gratification

Last night I went to a bed later then what I like to... (11:30 instead of 10:00). I woke up this morning and realized it was 11:00.... there goes my day... might as well go back to bed. No worries I didn't.. but for crying out loud!!!!! I haven't slept that late since.... well I cant remember.

So i woke up and had a breakfast of chicken,peas, and a huge baked potato. I made a to do list that will take me from now until Thursday at 9:30p.m. It is kind of overwhelming and think i should have broke it into smaller parts..oh well.. I find lists to be so satisfying... especially those with boxes that i can check, x, or puncture holes though as a sign of completion... as for getting everything done I have this really great process.... I read from the New Testament World book then reward myself with a couple chapters of Diana Butler Bass (yeah its part of a class!!!). Then its back to some New Testament reading followed by a reward of checking my e mail or in this case I'm blogging. All too soon it will be back to New Testament and then I will press on to the Dictionary of Pastoral Care and Counseling (yes its a dictionary) YIKES... After reading that I like to reward myself by getting out of my apt. Perhaps today i will return Blades of Glory to my friend "The Red Box" where I rent DVD's for a whopping dollar!

My egg timer has binged... meaning I must go back to "The reading chair."

Oh but while I am thinking of it... I bought reading glasses... turns out I really needed them... I can read so much faster and i am not reading things over and over because i cant find the next line... its fabulous... they are black.... (the brown and blue ones looked funny)... not that these don't but whatever...
