Darn it. I meant to be the 200th and I had planned to come back here and post but the cats wanted a breakfast snack which I know is more like a distraction than a procrastination but I forgot to say that while they were mewling I was daydreaming about getting up to do the trash and the dishes and maybe take a long shower and by the time I had decided that if I just waited a little while, the dishes and the trash could wait till morning, they really could if I rinsed them or covered them with hot water, the cats would give up and go away sulking because they aren't supposed to have a breakfast snack at night and then I thought about the laundry which I folded but didn't put away and now would have to be done in order for the bed to be used for sleeping tonight or actually last night because I meant to write this last night but didn't.

i NEVER procrastinate ! i'm always busy thinking about the work i should be doing; i pick up some books i haven't read for a while ..... leafing through them; look at my stamp collection ... should get it organized; wow, where did the day go ??? time to take out the garbage and RELAX ! ... soooo little time..... so much to do! there was saying my brother taught me when we wre growing up : ... nothing wrong with doing something, but make sure it doesn't turn into work ! (freely translated from the german : ein kleines bisschen beschaeftigung schadet ja nicht, aber um gottes willen nicht in arbeit ausarten lassen ! try that next time you are giving directions to a german tourist who is lost in your city - should be lots of fun watching the reaction). gotta go; haven't finished reading sunday's paper yet - as i said ... sooo little time.... hbg

It's almost 1:30 am here & I'm procrastinating about going to bed. I have this virus thingy, you see, & the minute my head hits the pillow I start to cough & cough ... Very draining! Shocked
Last night I tried sleeping propped up on 4 pillows, but that only give me a stiff neck in the morning. Gosh, this is a drag!

awww olga, how r u feeling today ?

I am procrastinating abt a lot of things....

Checking my personal email - the mailbox is so full that it has stopped accepting messages.
Filing my papers - havent done it for 3 weeks, so the stack is awesome

And since my maid is on holiday (she takes quite a large number of them, I wonder if I pay her too much, and I lost the number of her replacement), I have to

Do my laundry - I have to do this within 2 days, as I have only 2 pairs of clean underwear left
Clean the house - it is fairly clean, but I need to give it a good once over
Clean my car - Lots of tissues, tapes all over, dust stones on the carpet
Sweep the front yard - right now it is the dirtiest in the neighbourhood

I am just abt to breakdown in tears.....

And I'm about to breakdown too, Gautam, at the thought of all those things you have to do!
It must be awful when your maid is on holiday! Laughing How are you coping?

Feeling a bit better today. Thanks for asking. Tomorrow I'll be back at work. Sad

Gautam, head up. It is doable. I returned to Boston after 2 1/2 months 2 days ago, and it looked as if I was gone 2 1/2 years. Only 10 hours of work (sweeping, weeding, digging, washing, ...) and it is back to its original state. Sounds good, no? Today I vowed to do nothing (I can't move anyways) except for participating at a staff meeting where I will demonstrate my pain and then going to a party, where I hope to be jumped around and served hors d'ouvres in show of sympathy and pitty. See, after all, it is good for something... good luck to you.

Have you had yr cuppa ???

Seriously I don't mind doing the housework myself, I find it very relaxing (except when I have to iron my clothes) - it is just that I don't want to do it IN THIS F***ING HEAT !!!

And with full might! it is noon already, I have managed to do the laundry and bleach the kitchen floor - neither of which were on the plan. Instead some quantitative research was on the plan. Oh well, tomorrow is another day... Howz you all? (Gautam, I saw a jewelry store of the same name (that is Gautam) - if you are connected to that as well, no sympathy from me either. Maid, jewels, phhhhwt!)
