The art of Procrastination
Lately I have been mastering the fine art of procrastination. It really is a terrible thing to do when you have children that you are trying to set an example for. But, when faced with a paper to write, I tend to find many things that just have to get done. For instance, tonight I decided that the lawn just must get mowed . . .NOW. Of course, that meant picking up after the dog first (yuck), and then mowing. This was followed by a shower, as it is about 85 degrees with 1000% humidity. And then after the shower I had to make cookies because we didn't have anything for dessert. I can't let my children go hungry! Now, I am writing this, but in just a couple minutes I have to get the kids in bed. When all is said and done, a good 2-3 hours will have gone by since I first sat down to start writing my paper. I have one sentence done. ONE SENTENCE of a 4-5 page paper! Hmmmm . . . . do you think that I could use a really big font? In all seriousness, I will get this paper done just as I have gotten all my other papers done. I just enjoy taking breaks; lots and lots of breaks. If you have a favorite form of procrastination, I would love to hear it! Just post a comment.
