Procrastination

Why is procrastination so incredibly easy? Take tonight for instance. I sit down to start working and think, "Hmm, I better check our family email account first." Done. "Oh yeah, and maybe I can think of something witty to write as my Facebook status." I couldn't think of anything so I just read all the other postings. Then I thought, "Did that check for our new carpet ever clear?" "Ok, I am ready to settle into work now. Wait! I haven't read any blogs in awhile." Thankfully I took this detour because there were some really, really funny postings to catch up on. And I even commented on one, which I rarely do. And that's when I noticed it. It was there on my comment. You have probably noticed it, too. It was the profile picture for our family blog ... which is almost a year old! Yikes. P. looked like a fake little doll. And I looked, well, I will spare you that rabbit trail. So, still procrastinating, I thought I should get into my account and update that picture to something way more recent. And then I realized, "This is pathetic. I have only made two posts this month. Well, tonight is probably my last chance for the next couple of weeks because we are going to Family Camp this weekend and a wedding in Ohio next weekend." So here I am. Posting about how I haven't posted. Very intelligent, Kim.

Ok, enough procrastinating for one night! I would like to get a couple of hours of work in before my husband gets home from work. Oh, and that profile picture update? Yeah, that will have to wait for another night.

  2. We did, although I think we stopped seven times! (Mainly for Tyler and I, the kids slept most of the way back.) We didn't get home until 12:30 am ET. We left Bev's around 10 am that morning, but we met up with friends at IKEA and hung out over a late lunch. We had a great weekend—it was wonderful to see everyone!
