1. Do one thing you are procrastinating every day.
One thing I started doing this summer was to take one thing from my to-do list that I dreaded the most, then do it first thing in the morning. I was surprised and delighted with how much that lessened my stress load.
It can be as simple as emptying the dishwasher before breakfast, or a long hard task that you break up into 5 daily pieces.

April 2, 2015 at 9:58 pmI’ve been thinking that I was alone in my debilitating 2015 bronchitis. Your odyssey sounds exactly like mine! Thanks for sharing, now I don’t feel like I’m somehow to blame for this hanging on so lonnnnggg! The coughing just seems to lag forever. Longest siege of bronchitis I’ve ever had. I usually knock it out in a few days with oregano oil therapy. Not this year. I am eager for your ginger tea concentratre. Best to you Kathy and get well soon!

April 26, 2015 at 7:25 amKathy, I hope you are back to 100% soon. I’ve never seen anything like the bugs that went around this winter. Everyone in my office was sick for months; a couple of us ended up in hospitals. My tip, from a lesson earned the hard way: Ask for help. Sometimes we cannot do everything.
