Last minute Christmas preparations

I'm a procrastinator in every sense of the word. I even put off buying, wrapping, giving gifts. Instead, I went out in the snow yesterday. I tried to build an igloo; the snow was too fluffy. I tried to make a snow angel; I stepped in and ruined its shape. I tried to chase my dog; I fell on my knees into the cold and stayed there for longer than I thought comfortable. The holiday season just puts me in a leisurely mood which creates my leisurely pace. I slowly begin preparing for Christmas at the beginning of December, miscalculating, always, how much time I have. Christmas never seems to be near until it actually is. Then all chaos erupts and I'm left blogging about my own personal downfall: procrastination.

I smile. You certainly are not alone in your procrastination. I often wonder why we so often indulge in procrastinating.
