Queen of Procrastination

procrastination

There are dishes in the sink.

Laundry is flowing over the baskets.

Pieces of paper have built a fortress around my computer.

The garbage is at the point where it should be taken out.. but it may have room for two or three more discarded items.

As I look around the house, I cringe at the housework I have been putting off lately. Who wants to do housework after bedtime, when you can do more exciting things like sleep, blog or veg out with a movie.

Glance into my world as the Single Soccer Mom and you will see, I am the Queen of Procrastination. Unfortunately, this is not a new thing for me. I have held that title for many, many years.

It’s a characteristic or trait that I would rather not have. I’ve always been envious of Type A personalities that get things done the second it crosses their mind. I’ve tried to change…but I just keep putting it off.

Now that I’m a mom, I’m a bit better. There are just some things in mom world that you can not postpone: dirty diapers, doctor visits, school registration…

As I sit here, staring at my ‘To Do List’ that never goes away, no matter how many items I check off, the Type A side of my brain suggests removing my hands from the keyboard. It’s tempting… but Queen Procrastination is quite the Master Debater. 

I REALLY need to get the Queen to remember…

“Procrastination is like Masturbation,

 it feels good while you are doing it,

 but in the end, you’re just F’n yourself”
