4. Cause trouble?
Would I do that?




Heeee...at the moment it's a little better than finishing Christmas cards and making sugar cookies...

What am I saying? It's INIFINITELY preferable...

:evilgrin:

5. Let's see...
cleaning my kitchen and washing my floors...cleaning the bathrooms...doing laundry...finishing my Christmas cards. STARTING my Christmas cards...making peanut brittle...making peanut butter cups...making sugar cookies...

the list goes on and on and on.

I'll get it done. Just not yet. I've gotta procrastinate first.

6. WAY too much.
I just don't want to. I want it done, and I want to do it. I think. I just don't want to do it.

7. LOL
It is like learning at home. At least it was for me. Suddenly I even wanted to clean up rather than studying .... Maybe I should start studying again ... :think:

8. I'm homeschooling my daughter...
I WISH she'd rather clean. She tries to work it so that she gets out of her schoolwork and the housework. Talented girl, that.

10. We all have our talents...
mine is procrastinating. I love having it all done, just hate doing it. Meh...I don't really even hate it. Once I get going, I'll be fine. It's just getting going.

Maybe another cup of coffee?

15. I'm a master procrastinator...
Hence why I am here so much during the work week. I could be filing useless pieces of paper, finishing the fed-ex package going out this afternoon, pay my car insurance bill, etc, but I'm not feeling inspired yet.

20. That's what I keep telling myself...that I've got a week.
But then I think about what I've got to do over the rest of the week and I go back to work tomorrow night...but I've still got all of today. And tonight.

And it's so nice, sitting here with my coffee.

I made my bed, though. That's a start, right?

:rofl:

21. we got a tree yesterday! (of course it isn't decorated yet)
I don't have to work this week, so I have no excuse. I just feel like being a slug- but I still have to bake more and buy some wine gifts....
