procrastination inflation

Here’s a random pic of Joey with a horse. Enjoy…while I rant.
Please tell me I’m not the only person with this problem. There is so much to do and I can’t seem to start on any of it. My three day migraine bender was finally over when I woke up this morning…oh happy day! So the haze has cleared to reveal….dun dum da da dum…chaos. Grumpy, cooped up kids, piles of dishes and a generally trashed house has tempered the relief I felt at waking up without pain in every movement.
Why am I writing about it instead of taking care of business? I’m slightly overwhelmed. If I start on the laundry it will use the hot water that I need for the dishes. Can’t start the dishes until I have some clean counter space….and it goes on and on like that. When I get to the end of the list which takes quite a bit of effort in itself, I will start with that. But for now I am doing a list item that doesn’t require figuring what came first, the chicken or the egg. And when I’m done I can check off one thing I’ve accomplished. That is, I would if I ever actually made a to do list.
All this has to be done and I’m so far from what I really want to be doing, working on book two. Oh how I long for the days of hours of uninterrupted writing (also known as school days).
Oh, by the way, if there is ever a blog post you hate, or even mildly dislike, you can bet it was typed on a migraine day. I’m like Jekyl and Hyde I tell ya…
Thanks for letting me get that off my chest (as if you had a choice).
