I did really well about a year ...I *heart* Castle!<br /><br />I did really well about a year ago where there was ONE show I made time for and the rest of the week, I was getting things done. Now, not so much. I'll be much better off when Idol and DWTS is finished and the other stuff goes into re-runs.<br /><br />School work is about to become overwhelming but if I can make through the next 11 weeks and cross that finish line, I'm going to be SOOOOOOOOOOO relieved.<br /><br />Coaching softball is not only taking up my time, but taking up my trunk space AND causing me to lose sleep. I have 9 little girls who have never played before and only 10 days to get them ready. It's NEVER going to happen!<br /><br />Come July 1, when school is over and softball is over, kiddo is away for the summer and shows are on repeat mode, I hope to get TONS of writing done. After I sleep for several days. *sigh*Terri Osburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17176989488447450585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-48425709895160100392009-04-16T13:44:00.000-05:002009-04-16T13:44:00.000-05:00Blogs!

I'll take up crocheting" and a few weeks later, "Hey, I haven't sewn in ages!" Right, well, I haven't WRITTEN in ages either.<br /><br />8. BLOGS. I love blogs. And Facebook falls under this category for me.<br /><br />7. EMAILS. I'm a complete junkie. I have to check like every other minute and respond IMMEDIATELY. Unless it's work related...that crap can wait.<br /><br />6. Lunch with girlfriends (etc), whom I don't get to see very often. You have to make time for your friends or you won't have any. Plus you have to eat. <br /><br />5. The gym. Not so much a temptation than a "I have to go before my muscles atrophy" but sometimes I do use it as a reason not to write.<br /><br />4. Sleeping. I'd rather sleep than exercise; and I'd rather sleep than write.<br /><br />3. Movies and DVDs.<br /><br />2. Books.<br /><br />1. Sex. (And if I have it the same night I went to the gym, I get brownie points for exercising twice in one day, right?)Hellie Sinclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03933713255844695337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-26398215595878779402009-04-16T11:06:00.000-05:002009-04-16T11:06:00.000-05:00What are my Top Ten distractions:

Taking a nap when I fall asleep while reading.<br />4. Warm weather that gets me outside the four walls.<br />5. Checking to see what came in the mail today.<br />6. Playing games on my computer.<br />7. The grandkids wanting my attention.<br />8. Sending e-letters to my friends.<br />9. Stopping to eat.<br />10. Going for a drive through the local wildlife refuge with my camera.LuAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13049897327581610278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-5782327409766500142009-04-16T10:21:00.000-05:002009-04-16T10:21:00.000-05:00I hear you, Les.

big ...Don't forget Castle! Comes on Monday nights!<br /><br />big TBR pile is really distracting. While I was waiting on the page to load I was thinking of reading a book today! <br /><br />I vacuumed and shampoo'd carpets yesterday. My kitchen floors are begging me-BEGGING me to do them. But that includes cleaning countertops and table. We'll save that for tomorrow on my workout day.<br /><br />That nice warm sun outside which wonderfuly tans my skin and loads me up on that vitamin that I can't think of that my body doesn't store well. Doctor ordered here, so how can I NOT take advantage everytime the sun pops out so invitingly??Keri Fordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03342480359177235075noreply@blogger.com
