Excuses

I am full of them today. Talking myself out-of and into all sorts of stuff.

Why go workout at the gym today when I can go shopping? And, accomplish more on my to-do list.

Why clean the house when I can try on various party outfits with my younger cousin in town?

Why wrap Christmas gifts when I can blog? Or download photos to CVS to be printed?

Why pull weeds in the flower beds when they should be dead from the cold in a week or two? Or rake the leaves when our fancy bagger attachment for the lawn mower should arrive any day?

Why wash/dry the guestroom sheets and towels when we won't have company for several weeks?

Maybe if I add my excuses to my to-do list, I can cross them off and still feel like I have accomplished something??!!
