Do what you don't want to do,
so that you can do what you do want to do.
Did I mention that I am an expert procrastinator?!?
I tend to skip the stuff I don't want to do and jump right to the fun part.
Which leaves a lot of stuff left undone.
and dirty.

As my spring break approaches (next week)
I'm making my list and checking it twice.
***Beware: no fun included.***
These are in order of super gross,
(I'd prefer a sharp stick in the eye)
to not so bad,
(I don't really mind,
I just need to set aside time.)
The best way out is always through.

I need to remember this.

Here's my list:
(I made it rainbow-colored so as to make it
seem more fun than it really is.)
1. Taxes. Enough said.
2. Get the day bed out of my studio & sell it on Craig's List.
Move a table & the printer hutch into the studio.
3. Go to Fry's (Ugh. Hate this store.)
Buy an affordable, high quality scanner.
4. Learn how to use my new scanner. (Cringe.)
5. Scan in every print in my etsy shop
and replace with the current photos.
6. Buy a bunkbed.
Play with Jack while my
husband builds said bunk bed.
7. Organize the boys room.
That's a whole post. Or a series of posts.
People with kids:
How in the world do you deal with all of this kid stuff?!?!
I'm stumped. And I only have one two year old.
8. Get out new born baby stuff (!)
Make a list of what we need.
9. Make my studio the creative haven of inspiration
that I've always wanted.
10. Paint to my heart's content.
(I had to add something fun.
It's spring break, for cryin' out loud.)

I'm tempted to add
ridiculous things like
"Clean the baseboards"
"Wash the windows."
"Organize the kitchen cabinets."
But let's be real.
That stuff is not happening in real life.
I'll be lucky if I get half of my
list even attempted.
I will keep you posted...
