That caught your attention didn’t it? Well, I am finally back and borrowed Nike’s slogan because as a homemaker, these are words I should live by. I have always been a procrastinator, which hinders the many tasks on my daily to-do list. My problem seems to be that I think about the task at hand – when is the perfect time to do them, what should I do first, etc. – and when I take that approach, I do not get to make many check marks on that list. However, when I listen to Nike and “just do it”, it is amazing how many tasks I can complete. Compounding my procrastination problem is this desire to be a perfectionist, which is ironic because my house is so far from perfect it is not funny. For instance, even though I have been thinking of writing this very entry in this blog for over two months now, I did not get around to it because I wanted everything to be perfect before I posted it. Well, as you can read, I have decided to go with the “just do it” attitude for this blog from now on or there will never be another entry. Now, if I would just do it and put that laundry away…
PS I have put the laundry away from my last blog. Just do it doesn’t really work for laundry because the more you do it, the more there is to put away!
