I extremely dislike that I am a procrastinator. It is a horrible thing to be. It leads to great stress in one’s life, at least near due dates. Between now and then end of the term (Finals week is May 14-18) I have eight or nine papers, sermons, or projects to write, finish, or in one case redo for school and one sermon for a local congregation. Last night and this morning I realized how soon that is, and what percentage of my grade these papers consist of. How in the world will I get it all done I thought…
Then at about 8:15 EDT my phone vibrated to inform me of a voicemail message. I called it and listened to it and then called Kirtland saying I could come up this weekend to work. What? Yes, I said I could even in light of all the work I have to do. I will be taking some of my work with me and will get what I can do without access to the school library. It may also give me a chance to talk with Blake regarding my field ed placement next year, which is another thing I need to do in the coming weeks. (Along with figuring out how to get an 18 year old cat from Ohio to Oregon before I leave for Nauvoo in mid-May.)
I am sure I will post here several times between now and the end of the term, most likely when needing a pause from schoolwork, or upon some random thought. I already have a post in mind caused by my Homiletics course, and will probably write that on Monday after another session of three sermons in Homiletics. Thus even less time for schoolwork….
Well now I need to get back to focusing on class….
Peace be with you,

Gees! Good luck with all that. I am a terrible procrastinator myself. I’ve heard for years about a club for people like us, but I keep putting off looking into it….
