Celebrating small successes, LOL (And KISS)

4th step note: I tend to be able to complicate anything, no matter how simple.

Take writing thank you notes, for example, for my birthday gifts.
Instead of buying a package of little tank you notes and jotting them
off, and getting back to work, I "have" to paint hand made ones for
each person individually so they will feel truly thanked and
cherished.

It's a slow process and keeps me from FIRST THINGS FIRST--doing my
work, cleaning etc.

But then I get confused about first things. Could creativity and
expressions of love sometimes actually BE the first thing?

When am I procrastinating and when am I doing something important.

Is blogging this, and asking this question just another procrastination?

Perhaps. But the blog could use a little picture. And I am
celebrating another small success--one thank you note completed.
Unfortunately, the mailman came JUST as I was finishing it
(literally!), so it will have to wait until tomorrow to go out.


I have a different way of expressing KISS: Keep it simple, SWEETIE! I can express it very nicely, but can I DO it? Aye, that is the question.
