Nice to know I'm not alone.<br /><br />Kelly-True story, unfortunately.<br /><br />Tricia-That's because the blog is in the computer, and as long as I don't misplace that, I'm okay. (Well, there is the whole issue of forgetting what I named any given file...)<br /><br />Susan-I can't do multi-tasking well at all, in any area! (And yet, it is the way of things these days.)<br /><br />Yat-Yee-This weekend looks a little slower, but we'll see...:)<br /><br />Catherine-I'd join!<br /><br />Elana-I love the think time!! But so little of it these days. Usually, I am doing think time on one project whilst finishing up three others...<br /><br />Julie-I don't know what I would do without lists. (When I can find them...)<br /><br />Jackee-Yes, a lot of it comes from being a mom and having to juggle so many tasks at the same time!<br /><br />Amy-Wha??? As if you aren't busy enough!!! You go, girl!<br /><br />Katie-I refuse to be ADD! I like to think of it as being terminally creative or better, "she's a day dreamer."<br /><br />Chris-Very true. I like the inhale/exhale image. It speaks to the balance of things, which I am lacking.storyqueenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07039684494823420722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3293818069256266954.post-70144100192309798722010-01-16T07:33:18.904-08:002010-01-16T07:33:18.904-08:00I totally relate - it's impossible to exhale c...I totally relate - it's impossible to exhale creativity without inhaling dreamtime. Finding that balance is the key - right now I just feel like I'm hyperventilating from exhaling only!Christy Raedekehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08263316476947361971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3293818069256266954.post-51278093032302358472010-01-16T05:06:15.923-08:002010-01-16T05:06:15.923-08:00I do this too but I've always just said, "...I do this too but I've always just said, "I'm ADD."<br /><br />Laundry in the fridge.

As if I had nothing else to do, I signed up for quilting classes that begin Tuesday night. But ya know, I'm attracted to the idea of sitting around with a bunch of women, just to laugh. I'm not very crafty, but I need the stress reliever.Clementinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08745982305618408952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3293818069256266954.post-7286038510765586472010-01-15T12:34:10.078-08:002010-01-15T12:34:10.078-08:00I'm sooo this way too.
