I haven't even thought about shopping yet...ugh...
ReplyDeleteWhile I don't share your talent of looking up great quotes, I am quite practiced at procrastinating. I almost put off writing this comment.
ReplyDeleteI have procrastinating about even thinking of Christmas shopping - and don't even mention writing cards.
But I love procrastinating, because I work much better under pressure.
Ann - If I can do all my shopping online, I will. I just can't take the crowds!
ReplyDeleteWiley - "I almost put off writing this comment." You crack me up. I wish I could not say that I am a genius at the art form of procrastination. But it would be a lie. I'm ok if I have a list to cross things off of but I always procrastinate sitting down to write one. sigh...
And here I was soooo excited by the fact that for the first time in 30 years I have nearly all the Christmas shopping done. I'm usually still shopping on Christmas Eve.
