to add this goal was the fact that I always seem to put off telling people what is going on until the last minute (no matter how good my intentions are…)
Case in point, a few weeks ago, my dad needed to borrow our car. That left hubby and I with one vehicle. While dad had the car, I (well actually my cat) had an early morning appointment at the vet’s office, and because of his work schedule, I didn’t know if my husband would be able to take the kitty or not. So I told my dad that he might have to come pick me up to take her in…well, the night before her appointment, hubby said that yes, he could take her. So what do I do? Well, I really had good intentions about calling my dad and telling him that he wouldn’t have to come and get me, but in the end (no matter the excuses for me not calling) all that really matters is that I didn’t. That morning I was going to call after I took my shower. But, as usual, dad called me first.
Might not sound like a big deal, but this is an ongoing thing with me, and a bad habit that I want to break. Sometimes people are waiting on my phone call, but in the meantime they have other things they could be doing. How rude of me! So, I want to be more considerate. In all areas of my life!
