instead of hanging out here. I took today off to clean up the house a bit and get some pre-holiday cooking prep work done. So far I've accomplished one thing on my list. Not good. I'm just procrastinating here when I should be doing stuff. Please tell me I'm not the only one...

You are not alone. Although this is a regular scheduled day off for me and I don't have company coming. But I have lots of things I could - no I should - be doing.

Me! I needed a break from cleaning. On to packing, meal preparing, and driving in the next 10 minutes.

I don't know about SHOULD but I COULD be doing something else. Thankfully I don't have too much prep work today and should be able to knock it out in a couple hours this afternoon. I'm feeling lazy this morning

Hand raised. I took the week off work and other than playing with the dogs and watching Netflix, have accomplished little else. Good news is I don't have company coming over so who cares.

Me. But in my defense, it is cold and rainy outside and I am all comfy cozy inside and my coffee is REALLY good. For the time being, I am very content to be the Queen of Lazy.

Me! It's yucky out and I'd rather hang out here by the fire and stay warm. Instead of cleaning. Wouldn't anyone?

No Thanksgiving here so only normal household chores - far too dull

I'm on my break. I've accomplished a couple of things so far. The list left to go is long, but I've not so gently encouraged the other 3 adults/near adults in the house that they should seriously consider taking ownership of a couple of said items (which are posted on our "command center" white board).
I'll give myself another 10-15 and tackle the next big thing. I'm also scheduled to take my son to his therapy appointment and I have a hair appointment @3:30pm.
And it's snowing. Fun!

Guilty but in my defense I am eating breakfast so I am essentially multitasking.

There's nothing I "should" be doing but plenty I "could" be doing. I did walk the dog. In the cold rain. Which is now snow. Winter = As for what I *could* be doing -- well, cleaning off the table so we can eat Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow. But nah, plenty of time for that. -- Or making pumpkin bread. The oven is preheating as we speak so I'm actually working on that. -- Paying some bills. Yeah, I'll get around to it since I pay them online so it's easy. -- Making more coffee? yep, perfect.

*raises hand*
That would be me.
I have a long list of things I should be doing. But I've only done a few of them.

I'm on my 10 minute break then it's back to cleaning. So far I've gotten 3 loads of laundry done, master bath clean and floor mopped, clean sheets on bed and room dusted. After my break I'm moving to the first floor.
I'm feeling energized today so I should get a lot done.

Hand in air!
I just got a call from my sweet mother telling me they are coming to my house for Thanksgiving tomorrow, instead of my sisters (long story). AND they are spending the night. Insert silent scream here...

Definitely guilty as charged. Taking a break from converting the guest room from a craft/scrapbooking/sewing/storage function to actual guest room for my mother in law. Then I need to convert my second sewing room back to a dining room. Finally, need to clear off the kitchen table and pick up the family room. Dh says he is going to clean the full bathroom at this end of the house too. He did most of the kitchen.

Me. DS has been home sick with pneumonia and it's totally thrown me off. So much I should be doing. Laundry, baking, decorating, cleaning. I should probably get going.

I did some stuff and convinced the boys 8 and 10 that doing prep work for Thanksgiving would be a lot of fun. They fell for it and did half my work for me. I guess I should do the rest now though.
