chasing rabbits

Today I walked on a treadmill. This is one of the most dreaded activities I can think of... I try to not do it often. Most always time flies, but not on a treadmill. Minutes seem to pass like hours. There I was, going nowhere fast! It's amazing how many good things I think of to write while walking. So many topics, so little time. But my mind goes from one to the other. I couldn't tell you now (7 hours later) what any of the topics were. Some were too deep for me to get into at this hour. It's always like this for me. I have a conversation in my mind (am I the only one) and then when I actually talk to the person I cannot say anything I thought of. And it was good stuff. Or I kick myself after a conversation because I should have said this or that.

Yesterday was "do-nothing day" around here and we've paid for it today. I am a terrible procrastinator. Or maybe I'm a really good procrastinator. Either way, I have a Stampin' Up! workshop tomorrow and I've had great intentions for weeks of getting ready for it. Do you think I did one thing about it til' today? Nope... l had all day yesterday but I was too obsessed with this whole bog thing. Then we had friends over for pizza, then it was bedtime. It seems like I run out of day before I run out of things to do. I'm sure I'm not the only one. So today I've scrambled and I am almost ready. YEAH! I think I need to come to terms with the fact that I work better under pressure and just live with it and make the most of it.

I will try to give you a quote each day because I love to tell what Abby says to everyone all the time. Today at the lunch table she said, "Dad, where's your upper lip?" He points to his lip and says, "Right here, why?" Her reply, "Because it stinks!" Followed by a silly little giggle. Gotta love it when a 3 year old tells a funny that truly makes you laugh!

no, unfortunately it was me. she has such an acute
sense of smell and is always asking me "what's that stinky smell, Momma?" so finally I just started saying, "I think it's your upper lip!" passed down from memaw... just can't help myself.
