Ditto -- everything is downstairs so I can do the laundry and sew at the same time.

Sigh, I used to multi-task, but with age comes tunnel vision. If I try to multi-task I get side tracked and never accomplish anything. One thing at a time...one foot in front of the other...yep, that's the way I do things any more. :roll:

How true!

That is when I do my best work! I multi-task at work and at home! It kinda drives the non multi-taskers nuts though, trying to keep up with what I am doing next!

Is there any other way?

Everything that way! Drives DH crazy. He says slow down!!!

I've been quilting while waiting for pots to cook down for canning and while the water bath canner is doing it's thing. :wink:

same here or I'd be unsewing so much more than I'd be sewing.

You bet. I was born to multi task else nothing would happen.

I have read a study that says women's brains are just more "plastic", meaning flexible, and just better able to multi-task. Actually, you aren't multi-tasking at all. You are just able to rapidly shift your focus from one thing, back to another, and on to another at a rapid pace. You can only focus on one thing at a time. It's the speed in which you can shift that focus, and still retain the thread of what you're doing in each area, that allows you to "multi-task". (I've actually researched this.) And not meaning to sound sexist, but women are much better at it than men are, and in my opinion, that's a learned behavior born out of necessity. Anyway, I wouldn't get anything done if I didn't multi-task! At least, not enough to suit me!
