How would I confess being slovenly?

[NFrancis]

is, “I have often been slovenly,” good enough or do I need to give examples such as me procrastinating on homework and stuff my parents tell me to do.

I don’t exactly recall the specific circumstances and number of times but I am sure i have been slovenly.

Procrastinating on homework isn’t a sin(as far as I’m aware), unless you skip mass to do it or lie in order to turn it in late.

I can imagine that if you have a few specifics and then say, and many more times if you only have a vague idea of them, would be good enough.

God Bless

From the details of your post you are mistaking the meaning of “slovenly”. It has nothing to do with procrastinating on homework!

Basically, slovenly means: negligent of neatness especially in dress and person; habitually dirty and unkempt; having an untidy appearance; unkempt; Careless or negligent; sloppy; Unwashed, dirty, disorderly.

Just confess what you have done, or not done - I have been putting off (or not doing) my homework, chores my parents assigned to me, etc.
