Guess I haven't been a total mush mess this afternoon, did manage to get 2 loads of laundry done, sheets changed on the bed and dinner fixed.....but then where am I??? Right back here.....step away from the keyboard!!

Sounds like me. It's almost like an addiction. I told my DH the other day that I needed to cancel the internet so I could work on something. I'm on the computer so much, I can't seem to focus on anything else. I took computer classes in college, but If I remember correctly it was so I could get a better job.....Where's my better paying job??? Still out there and here I sit. LOL

Oh I am right with you on that! I get up early "just to check emails" and an hour later, I haven't even opened up my emails....I've been reading blogs, THIS message board...and so on and so on.
No wonder we creative people never get a project finished in a "timely manner". :roll:

that's what timers are for! :)
when i take a break from what ever and get on the computer i set the kitchen timer for 45 minutes- my timer has a 1minute warning ding- when that one minute warning dings i finish what i am doing- shut down the computer- and go shut the timer off- now it's time to be doing what ever is next :)

I am as guilty of being here as anyone - it is such good informatioin, and quality beauty that is put out by all here on this board... how can we not set here and learn and admire those who already have so many accomplishments behind them... it is tough to choose between admiring and sewing - but one day soon - I need to get back at it - my December great neice or nephew will want it's little quilt!:)
