Procrastination is opportunity's assassin. ~Victor Kiam
Two things I would like to change about myself - Procrastination and ADD (or what used to be called short attention span). Oh my, I have the worst time with these two. First, I'll be gung ho to do something and then it quickly wears out. But once I'm doing it, I see something else that needs to be done and start that task, and then - what do you know - there's something else I could be doing and move on to that! As quick as it happens, I have unfinished projects all over the place!
I'm all about list, list help keep me in check. And then when I find myself adverting onto another project - I try to call myself on it and try to stay focused on what I was originally doing. This is why Brian and I cannot work together well. I wished I was more like his speed - get it done now!
So as I am reading Stac's and Dom's blog they are listing out their errands and task at hand - so I'll do the same as I know enquiring minds want to know.
To night I am headed to a Southern Living Party while Ty is at a lock in. Tomorrow night I am helping to host the poker tournament for our football team's fundraiser. Saturday my sister is coming out so that I can highlight & cut her hair and wax her eyebrows. Then head to my stepmom's 80th birthday party and then attempt to make it to Mark's 40th surprise birthday party. Sunday starts football practice that won't end until mid Nov. Mondays are reserved for Boy Scouts (this Monday Ty receives his first set of merit badges, 8 in all). Football practice is again all week long. And Friday I'm invited to 3 separate home parties (Stampin Up, Beauti Control & Lia Sophia). Saturday it's a football scrimmage and then a skating party for K. Tired yet? I am just thinking about it as that only goes through the 9th of Aug.
Thanks to Stacy for posting about school shopping. It helped me to get out there and knock some of that out last night after I made dinner and did a hair color. It was after 8pm - we managed to get a couple pairs of shoes and binder and pencil pouch for Ty.
Ok, so back to my work list.

I feel your pain! I thought it would get easier as our kids got older but it gets more busy! Hey...what is a Sophia Lia or whatever party...I can't know what one is?
