Some days there is a whole lot of lacka wanna around these parts. Today is one of those days. I’ve been putting off writing blog posts about seedlings, permaculture/forest gardens, Colonial drinks, herbal skin balms, and life on a sometimes-floundering farm. There are ashes to be spread on fruit trees and future vegetable gardens. There are containers to be cleaned for seedlings. I should check on the “expecting” sheep. Minus the writing, all those things will happen today, however, some winter days require sitting with animals, reading, and daydreaming first.
Rather than getting stressed about all the things that are not getting accomplished, I'm going to choose to believe that we all need procrastination days to make us more productive and happier humans. Others think so too: https://www.elitedaily.com/life/culture/successful-people-procrastinate-meaning-behind-procrastination/736595
