I have some paperwork to do that will likely result in $2000. It's been over a year and i cannot just sit down and do it. I stress over it every day but continue to put it off.

Today. Let's both finish our paperwork today. The sense of freedom and achievement will be good.

Ok. I have a 2 hour car ride this afternoon. I will get everything ready this morning and do it in the car. Thanks! Good luck!

Excellent. I hope you did OK. I got mine done! It wasn't as bad as I thought. If you haven't finished yet, don't give up, pick up the pieces and carry on. Thanks for being my Internet buddy on this.

Congratulations! I didn't finish, but did get a good start on it. Thanks for the encouragement!

[โ€“] davidagain@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Well done. Starting is the hardest part. Are you going to do a bit more today?

[โ€“] Today@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago (2 children)

I'm on vacation until Wednesday so I will finish it on my flight home. Getting started really was the hardest part. Now it's just putting numbers into boxes and adding them up. By gathering info and starting on it, i find that the expected $2k gain is closer to $10k. That's some great motivation to get it done!
