Me... taxes. The longer I work on them, the more interesting Mamapedia becomes.

What can I do next?

I should start making supper, but I like Jo W's idea better. I suppose I should wait for my after school kids to leave before I start drinking.

The crock pot is sitting in the sink, calling my name. What? I thought I was done with the dishes!!

Erm...I've been out of white socks for three days. I'm wearing green socks. I could be getting to that...but...

I've got a game going on Pogo and I'm even neglecting that. I am neglecting one website for another. That's bad. :)

Putting away groceries. I went to Wal-Mart for the first time in a few months and it stressed me out so bad that I am taking an internet break so I don't go drink wine from the bottle while standing in front of the refrigerator. :)

Dishes... I will do them after I make tea and a snack for myself and Kiddo...

and maybe after I read him a book or two....

and maybe then I'll need to check my email and write a dear sister for a minute...

or spend time taping up my son's beautiful heart he painted at kindergarten...

and then--THEN-- I will do those damn dishes.
(Wasn't this National Procrastination Day? ;) Oops, that was on my Fantasy Calendar! )

Actually standing in my kitchen & pretending I'm doing something important on my phone. Which may or may not be related to dinner.

Right now, I'm waiting to hear that my ex-husband has been released from the hospital after hip replacement surgery. He's been there for a week.

My son and I are going to get him home, move some furniture around and get him settled.

It might sound strange, I know, but he doesn't have any other family close by and he's been through a lot. I can't turn my back on him.

So, I'm just biding time until I hear that he's ready to come home today.

Monthly bills--got our credit card bill today--it isn't pretty, and I am procrastinating on going through all the finances because I don't want to have the "I've gotta take some $ from savings this month to cover the CC bill" conversation. That usually kills our evening, and we have date night tomorrow. I'll have to do it on Sunday, before he heads to the gym so he can run off his frustration ;-)

It's 1 AM and I should be sleeping. However, I had to stay home from work because my son was sick and we both took long afternoon naps. So he is back asleep and I am awake. Probably when I get sleepy and go to bed is when he'll wake up in the middle of the night because he is congested. : /
