Dear A2Kers,

I have a fatal flaw: I constantly torture myself by putting off till tomorrow what I SHOULD be doing today! It's a horribly anxiety-inducing habit I can tell you, dear friends. Confused Shocked

Like, right now I'm dog tired. I have things I must do tomorrow morning which require me to be alert & chirpy. (ha!) So what am I doing? Sitting here at 1 am, posting a thread about procrastination! (Yes, hopeless, I know, I know ... )

So, do tell: what you you procrastinating about today?

Oh! And:
Putting the bookcase in the box on the living room floor together..
Doing my tax..
Brushing the cats..
Visiting my friend in hospital...
Wishing another friend happy birthday and getting his present to him..
Writing up the safety plan for work..
The washing..
Painting the apartment ...and choosing the colours...
Grouting my proud new mosaic mirror...
Giving up milk...

Doggie bathes & grooming (you'd think I was throwing acid on my Beagle by the way he reacts,...the Basset Hound doesn't care). But it's muddy outside, so what's the point,..right?
:wink:

Laundry- I'm in complete denial Very Happy

Cleaning the house- again, denial,..and the rationalization that spring cleaning starts soon. But the "dust bunnies" are getting so big, that the dogs are scared. Laughing

You need to be bright and chirpy on a Saturday morning! C'mon now! Who is?

It's too early in the morning for me to tell if I'm awake yet. The boss decided it was time toget out of bed, for some reason, so here I am!

Procrastinate? Who, me?? Always! I do wish I'd stop stuffing around and pay my bills on time though - and reduce some angst!

Happy Saturday - now all things can wait until Monday! Twisted Evil

I'm putting off what I put off yesterday and the day before and the day...But, wait a minute, please. I have a list here.
Taxes
Paying bills
Dusting - it's getting pretty thick - oh, oh, I'm sneezing, kerchoo, kerchoo. tell you about it later, maybe. I have to find the box of Kleenex that's buried under the stuff I have to organize. kerchoo. It must be the dust rising.

The WEEK before they are due! You ain't even TRYING! The NIGHT before! That is when true procrastinators do their stuff - if all extensions have been exhausted!
