I'm sitting here in the middle of chaos

I think there are enough myLot members in that same situation that we could start our own 12-step program. Hi, my name is Marie Anne, and I'm a myLot-aholic. (clap clap clap clap)

You are defiintely not the only one my friend! I happen to be sitting at my computer wondering if I should get up an do something. You know what? The tasks arent going anywhere. Its good to take time for yourself once in a while. I havent been on my computer since Friday. I am going to enjoy my time home and I will be myLotting alot.You know what I just thought about? I am going to ask my other half if he can help. I think that its about time that he helps. dl

I can do nothing except mylot right now because I am still healing from surgery. Most of the time, I get everything done before I am on here. I cannot do anything on the computer until I know that all of my work is done.

I am the queen of procrastination. My house needs to be swept, mopped, vacuumed, laundered, and organized, but there's too much. It's overwhelming, to say the least. I should start my laundry so my kids can do theirs, then my boyfriend has a load of work clothes to do, but I don't want to. I'm the mom and I don't have to. That's the #1 thing I need to overcome. My way of thinking. I really should stop being a lazy b!tch, but I don't want to that either. Man! Too many choices on a really long 'to-do' list.

Don't know where to start hey? Stay on here for a while, the tasks can wait!

yeah, me too, i have warned myself several times to cut time off from mylot, to spend more time reading and studying and watching movies, washing and cleaning, but i can't help.

I am with you on this, every step of the way. The thing is, once I start on one of those "other things" and get involved, then I am just as happy doing that. I also am sitting down here when I should be in bed, 'cause hubby found out when we got back to town this pm that he was on the EARLY shift tomorrow. We are getting up at 5:30 a. m. He is in bed, asleep, and I told him about an hour ago I was coming up. LOL

Me too. I just moved into my new house five weeks ago and there is a mountain of boxes to be unpacked but am I unpacking them? Not at all. It is way past my bedtime. The boxes have become an eyesore and like you, I am sitting here as happy as the day is long, typing away here on myLot. I tell myself that I will just clear my mailbox and then I will go to bed, but my friends discussions keep flying in and I just have to read and respond to them. Ah well, tomorrow is another day...and I will probably do the same as I did today.

You're not the only one hon. Between Mylot and a couple of other sites, I NEVER manage to get anything done around the house. Fortunately hubby has a great sense of humor, and he just shakes his head at me when he gets home from work. LOL

I've done the same thing. I have several things that I could be doing right now. I could be getting some dishes together to be washed or I could be helping my partner fold laundry so that can get finished. Or I could be doing the more important tasks of working on school work. I have several school related things that need started or need finished. However I'd rather be a bit lazy right now. I'd rather do some posts and make a bit of money because money is always nice.

I know what you mean. I have chosed to sit on the computer at times instead of doing tasks that need to be done at home. For me, it used to be myspace, especially when I first started. Now, if something has to be done, I always take care of my responsibilites first. Then if I have some free time, I'll get online.

I had been putting off cleaning since June 22nd. Kids went back to school on Thursday..now the house is clean again. It feels and smells good! You just got to do it!

That is so funny, I was thinking the same thing! I have so many things I need to get done around the house. Its really just addicting to see what other people are posting and of course making money from participating.

Loads of times I have just sat down in front of my computer and have forgotten about everything else,and the jobs that im meant to be doing dont get done,the things I have made a mental list to do with my day are forgotten.I get a bit mad with myself for sitting networking and just surfing the internet,but its not ding anyone any harm,the only thing it is definately doing is wasting time when I should be ding other things.

I'm surprised you don't have 1,000,000 responses by now! I think we're all like that sometimes (even all the time I'm sure!). There are days when the last thing I want to do is what's sitting around here waiting for me. It is just putting off the inevitable, but it's so nice to pretend it doesn't exist for a little while. Enjoy while you can!

well, i think theres really something wrong with you. hahaha. sorry, but you have to finish whats important first. then, go back to do mylot.
