Facing the challenges of life requires courage and persistence and skill. But sometimes the best strategy is just to give it a rest for a while and wait for things to pass.
What is your favorite way to procrastinate or relax?

In the midst of having to move with no specific place to go, and too much stuff to pack up, we took a day off and went to Prescott, AZ, where it’s cooler, with all the animals. Never even thought about the problems.
I have this rather silly response to procrastination. My intention when I feel overwhelmed is to decide to sit down and, in essence, “write myself a letter”. This letter can sometimes become almost a volume (with chapters) of things to do: need to do, want to do, should do, may do, really have a passion to do; want to put on hold; think I have an obligation to do; wish I had done. etc, .etc.
Once I get that done, I have a sense of relief that all is covered….but of course, that’s not true and I can slip back into that other world again of choosing priorities or just letting life flow by helter skelter, and truthfully, enjoying myself for a while. The reason I said “silly” is that this is actually a Plan A and I need to get along to a Plan B or maybe even get to a Plan C?!
