totallylola, part of the stress for me is because I have a lot of tasks that were so overwhelming they never got done. I am taking a one-day-at-a-time approach – if I can set aside some time to tackle a task or project, I’ll do it, but if I can’t, I don’t sweat it (and I try not to go anywhere near it so it doesn’t stress me out looking at it).

I am using my whiteboards at work and home to help me visually plan – I write the whole week down and then my husband and I discuss what we plan to do, trying to make it as realistic as possible given the fact that we both procrastinate a lot and want to do other fun things too. Then we work the next few days according to plan and revisit the plan and revise if necessary. Anything that didn’t get done that was planned is carried forward and given priority (if appropriate) in the next few days. This is really working well because we are both accountable to each other.
