Its raining and blowing a gale outside, so we've come in to get some inside jobs done.
I have articles to write, questions to answer, laundry to hang out, meals to cook, a house to clean, photos to choose, lemons to process, a pattern to write, a test to knit and some emails to return. But instead I am doing the tech version of what my Dad calls 'sharpening pencils'. I am writing this blog.
If I had to write this blog I probably wouldn't. But I don't, so I'm completely distracted by my photos from the egg run this morning. By the realisation that my photos are much better in crappy, grey weather. By the wish that my baby would agree to let me home school her next year. By dreams of learning photoshop. And by anything else that is not on my list to be done today.
Its funny isn't it that something you love to do can become something you procrastinate about as soon as it gets onto the to-do list. That it somehow changes it. That
have to means
don't want to.
Most of it will get done in the end I'm sure. Closer to the dead line.
I found
this on pinterest (the greatest procrastination tool of all) this morning. It's true, yeah?
Oh and look at that, its lunch time. I'd better go and feed the fire to warm up the soup and put some toast on. Maybe I'll tick some stuff off after we eat. But then maybe it'll be time to pick up the girls. Maybe.
Do you do this too?
Are you doing it now?
Should you be doing something else instead of reading my blog?
Eeeeeeeeeep!!
