Lazy Saturday

It's Saturday and once again I should be cleaning the kitchen/living room/bedrooms/bathrooms and washing clothes. There are plenty of surfaces in my house that need to be dusted but if I do that then when Chris moves something he might not know where to put it back if the nice little ring has been dusted away! Then there's all the old mail, flyers, magazines, and newspapers that need to be sorted through and thrown away, but who really wants to sit and go through all of that? As far as the laundry goes, I'm hesitant to wash anymore clothes because of the mountain of clean clothes that are still waiting to be folded. I'm not sure I want to add to that pile just yet! My best friend was over for dinner last night with her fiance and went into Faith's room. Oops! You see, I had the mountain of clean clothes in the living room on the couch but last week I put them all into bags in my frenzy to straighten before company came. I set the bag in Faith's room until I could get to them to fold them. BIG mistake!! They've been out of sight and out of mind! During the week as we ran out of stuff I dumped all of the clothes out to fish out what we needed. I kept saying I'd fold them in a little while. Well.....as Christin put it so eloquently last night "it looks that the dryer threw up in Faith's room." She's such an honest best friend! lol Think I need to fold?
So with all of these things that are awaiting my attention and could keep me busy all day long and into the night, I ask you one thing....why am I sitting here at the computer browsing around and annoyed at how BORED I am? I'll tell you why....because the babies are sleeping, it's quiet, and being bored out of my mind is far more entertaining than the list of things to do that looms above me like a dark cloud.
I guess I'll get off of the computer now and start tackling my house. At least that's what I've said everytime I've gotten up from the computer over the last few hours. I know that once I get started I'll set a pace and breeze through it, the problem? Getting started! Okay really, I'm going now and I'll get it done. Unless of course Abby wakes up as soon as I start and then I'll have yet another reason to put it off. I'll regret it later when it's not done. In the words of my wise high school English teacher "procrastination will be your downfall!" It was back then and it still is today!!
Okay, really....no really! I'm going now, seriously....I'm getting off of the computer right now and going to clean as soon as.........................
