Thank you so much, Tay and Lighter,
wise thoughts and techniques.

I am genuinely ashamed to admit I'm electronic already.

That's not where the problem is. It's in my will.

It's not so much organizing techniques as it's
denial and childish avoidance.

But hearing the straightforward techniques DOES help.
And just knowing you understand. Don't stop.

love

I'm with you, Tay. I pay all my bills electronically. I has really eased a lot of the dread I had and the procrastination. It even gives me reminders when they're due. A real life saver, plus I don't have to balance my checkbbok! Win-win for me.

Hops,

It helps me to set a date and time, and reserve that time only for doing bills or whatever.  Like I'll do these bills on the 5th of the month around 8pm.  That helped me eliminate some procrastination.  I like to hold onto my money as long as possible. 

Setting things up electronically does help me remember though, if I don't do things on my scheduled day.
