This is me doing something I really shouldn't be doing.  Sitting with my feet up relaxing.  I don't do it often because I have the boys that keep me hopping but here I sit.  There is another reason I shouldn't be sitting here doing nothing.  That reason revolves around the fact that I am a graduate student with an Action Research Proposal due on Monday...yes...day after tomorrow Monday.  Oh, and a PowerPoint presentation to accompany the Action Research Proposal is also due on Monday.  I have started on this project but I don't think anyone in my immediate family truly realizes how BIG a project this is. I haven't started on the PowerPoint as of yet but that is truly the least of my worries.  This project is so large that I have finished formatting the paper and have plugged in my full sentence outline for it and it is already at 25 pages.  I still have to flesh out my ideas and make it coherent. 

I think that the reason I am procrastinating so much on this project is because it is so overwhelmingly large and important.  I'm afraid of it so I am putting it off.  It's kind of like getting a cavity that you know needs to be taken care of but you wait until it really hurts until you go to the dentist because you are afraid of the treatment. 

So, here I sit.  I'm no longer on my patio...but I am still procrastinating because I am writing this blog instead of my paper.  I'll get it finished, I always do, but I'm really glad that I can type over 100 words a minute...
