Recently, at my other p/t job over at blogfabulous.com, I wrote a piece on procrastination...how flipping through office supply catalogues is my method du jour for loosening up the brain cells.

(I did also manage to write about how scrapbooking is sweeiping the nation as an entreprenuerial pursuit).

Today it`s raiiny and misterable in Joisey, it`s Friday, I`m whooped, and I need someone to get me into gear....that is one of the little details that people overlook when they think about leaving the 9-5 world.  

When you work for yourself, alone especially, you don`t have a boss or colleagues to turn to or to watch over you to help you keep the pace.

So, what do you do to keep the engines running?  Or what`s your favorite form of procrastination?  (and don`t say food, we have another post for that...lol)

Yo Kim !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Turn this one up LOUD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dance around the living room until Trotter starts barking (a lot!!)

Head outside barefoot in the rain in the front yard, yell at the top of your lungs & then come on back & do a little work.

(you`re welcome)

I found Stacy Collins` music on the Roots Rock Radio podcast that I wrote about in this blog.

It definitely fits the bill for "Music that gets me fired up when I need a mid-business day boost!"

Richard,

Is this a Southern form of procrastination?

Well Richard, I was born south of the Mason-Dixon line. You can take the boy out the country ...
