I procrastinate folding my laundry. I always get the kids folded right out of the dryer, because I don't want my laziness to affect how they look. But mine? Right now there's a pile on my bed, haunting me.
What do you procrastinate doing?

I'm with Mystie - I hate to clean the bathrooms. Add dust and vacuum to that list. I love to do laundry, so anyone want to trade, ha ha?

Absolutely everything! In college, my friends called me Annie, because I wanted to do everything "tomorrow".

Too many things to list! Mostly the silly little jobs that would take 5 minutes to do and wouldn't then sit on my desk for months!

Lots of stuff, but mostly unpacking. ALWAYS unpacking whenever I go somewhere.
I got back from Mexico June 8th and unpacked yesterday. I just couldn't bear it. Haahahahaha!

The list of what I don't procrastinate is far shorter than the one of what I do!

Anything and everything. I'm a horrible procrastinator and am trying, unsuccessfully, to break the habit. I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to break the habit for 40 years.

Absolutely everything! In college, my friends called me Annie, because I wanted to do everything "tomorrow". That is very clever!!! And very funny!! I procrastinate quite a bit and tell myself that I work well under pressure. My worst is filing! I will place the papers one on top of the other, over and over again! Then the pile gets so large! I get so upset with myself. I have been better the past few months with that. I have my friend saying, "You touch a piece of paper once!" and it is helping!

I'm the worst with laundry...I let it pile up for 2 weeks then I let it sit folded for a day or two before I put it away.
But I've also had selling excess scrap stuff on my to do list for about 2 years. The stuff that's left has some value which is why I haven't given it away already but at the same time, I don't want to deal with shipping or meeting up with people.

I'll get back to you on that later...... Honestly, it is getting going in the morning. I read 2 Peas, Facebook, MSN, etc., etc. I know I should get busy, showered and dressed but still, here I am delaying the inevitable.

That's another one of mine! I have about 50 Lbs to lose, and no follow through. How much do I have to hate myself before I do something? I think part of the problem is that I gave up and bought size 18 shorts, and am finally comfortable, so it doesn't seem so bad. (as opposed to squeezing into size 16 jeans that made me uncomfortable in all aspects)

Pretty much everything. I've always been a procrastinator but I'm worse now than I ever used to be. These days I just try to get the top few really important things done every day. My life kind of feels like the "shoveling snow while it's still snowing" joke, only no one's laughing. Case in point: June 6 was DD's first day of summer vacation. My house was a mess because while I'd been recovering from foot surgery in March I was unable to do most of the usual cleaning and picking up that I normally do. Couple that with end of the school year busy-ness, and the place was looking scary. So my task was to get both of us busy with getting things in order, including vacuuming up all the dog hair that had been missed over the past several weeks, putting away all of the crap that ends up on the kitchen table and counters, etc. (among other things). We both worked like fiends that Monday, and on Tuesday DD was over it so I did most of the rest myself. It looked relatively nice for two days. TWO DAYS. Ugh. It's so demotivating when you spend a bunch of time doing something only to have it look like you never lifted a finger such a short time later.

Everything. I was born procrastinating. Sometimes I procrastinate so long that I end up not having to do whatever I am putting off. I always meet deadlines though. I can't think of a time that I've missed a deadline but I usually wait until the last minute.

Filing. I absolutely detest that job and the pile in the office is proof.
Unpacking would be be a close second. We got back from vacation Tuesday and the bags are still on the floor in the bedroom. However, I did do all the laundry first thing Wednesday morning.
I put off everything but when I finally do get going I expect DH to jump too and I get frustrated when he tells me "in a minute". When the mood strikes I want it done NOW.
