Procrastination....

I have a training session to prepare for work, nothing major, just a one hour session on collection management. It's due in two weeks time, and I've known about it for a couple of weeks.

I always let things percolate through in my subconscious for a while before I start physically jotting down ideas. Today though, is "start getting it into shape day".

Thing is.
I have a nagging feeling I need to check over the magazine subscriptions first. I won't be able to relax until I've done that. It will distract me.

Then it occurs to me. Am i just procrastinating?

So what do i do?

I Google "Procrastination"......

In the Pawprints of Pooh!

I have always been a lover of Winnie the Pooh. I think they were some of the very first stories I ever read. (My mum told me that I had cloth books with the characters on before I could even walk).

Tomorrow should be a very enjoyable day. The Marylebone Birdwatching Society will be visiting Ashdown Forest for a birding trip. It was in this area of woodlands and heath that Christopher Robin played with his teddy bear Pooh, and where his father A A Milne wrote the Pooh stories.

The area should be a great place for birds, as well as being an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and an SSSI. Mind you,  I do hope we will find the time to visit Eeyore's Gloomy Place and  100 Aker Wood....
