PROCRASTINATION IS NOT MY FRIEND

   Here on Hawthorne Avenue it is a beautiful early spring day.  I should be doing my taxes.  I'm not.  My SADD (Situational Attention Deficit Disorder - self diagnosed and self named) kicks in when I am engaged in tasks I dislike....ie. tax preparation.

    So far today I have...

1. Driven to Warren Road house to collect early 2012 tax papers.
2. Picked all the blooming daffodils at my Warren Rd. house
3. Returned to Hawthorne Ave. and made coffee
4. Arranged my daffodils in an antique cast iron mannequin boot

5. Gathered all my tax documentation into one big pile
6. Gone outside with the dog (still no fence to contain the dog's curiosity)
7. Lopped some low tangled branches and hauled debris to the street
8. Corralled a wandering Border Collie and walked him 2 blocks to his home
9. Began staking out my brick patio/herb garden off the back stoop
10. Taken a coffee break
11. Took some photos around the house
12. Checked email
13. Began another blog post

This got me through to 3PM.
Now, if you notice, I have not posted to this blog since early February (over a month ago).  Procrastination is and has been a lifetime acquaintance of mine.
