Procrastination

Have I mentioned how good I am at the art of procrastination?  I'm such a pro and unfortunately, it sometimes comes back to bite me in the butt.  Take today for example.  I've been putting it off all week.  I've known for a long time it was coming, but I just didn't want to to deal with it.  It stresses me out, so I just go in to denial and then end up in frenzy at the last minute.  What is it that has me all out of sorts... TRAVEL.  I know, right.  What kind of person doesn't  like to travel?  ME!  Don't get me wrong, I love seeing new places and exploring new things, but I HATE getting there.  I despise packing.  I can plan and pack for myself, but packing and planning for 5 is one of my least favourite activities.

Anyhow, I put it off and today, I need to make a big, long list and start the packing because the kids clothes ain't going to pack themselves. Yes, I said "ain't".  Deal with it.  I'm sitting here with a paper and pen next to me, but have yet to write anything down.  I HAVE checked the weather. I am looking forward to the waffles and chocolate.  If you don't hear from me for awhile I may be in a sugar coma.  We'll be in Belgium for a few days, in case you couldn't guess.  On the way home we have a surprise for the boys.  I'll fill you in when we get back.  ;-)

We are lining up a few other trips and I've already defaulted to Jason.  I told him I'll plan spring.  It's just not fun trying to find the best flight deals (and then miss out on them) and trying to find a place for all of us to stay.  Learning where to stay and what to do is tedious.  I'm sure I'll be a pro by the end of our time here.

I think I'll procrastinate just a little longer and then get to it.

Cheers!
