I have walked by the same pile of laundry every day for a week. It is clean, folded and ready to go to it’s home in the kids’ drawers upstairs. One flight of stairs. One pile of clean laundry. One week.
Every time I walk by the pile of laundry I look at it, make a mental note to take it upstairs and effectively snub it for the moment.
I googled “procrastination” the other day hoping that there was some sort of herbal supplement or prescription drug available to overcome this malady. One site had the “cure for procrastination” so I went there. The cure, it stated was to “do something productive.”
there you go. why didn’t I think of that?
So, the radical thought for this week…”do something productive.”

I keep meaning to do something about my terrible tendency to procrastinate but I never seem to get round to it!
Oh ho ho.
You and me both. I put the pile of laundry away yesterday but it had been waiting for me to do so for 3 whole weeks.
Yep, you ain’t the only one lady!
Cheers
