Had a lovely long talk to my bestie the other day when I phoned her to wish her a happy New Year. 

Some days I do miss her. She’s interstate now and we only see each other once or twice a year at the most.

She’s one of those that’s quite laid back a complete opposite to me, a stresspot.

Her advice to me was to find something to occupy my time. Since I’m to stop working I’ve got plenty of time.

Don’t put a time limit on anything . If you don’t finish it today you can finish it tomorrow or the day after. No stress.

The thing is I don’t think like that. I like to get things done so I can move on to the next job. I hate things unfinished. 

May be that’s why I’m such a stresspot. I get so frustrated when things are not done.

Being middle aged makes it worse. Any day now to menopause.

May be I should take her advice. No work means no time restrictions . If things are not done then so what? They can be done the next day. It’s not like I’ve got much to do anyway?
