I think maybe it's because the things I choose are tasks that I know I can complete - or maybe it 's just a stalling tactic for me! lol I hope your dog is feeling better~ :)Ms. Teehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10155900118539180624noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688951980399020435.post-76969764992307554992008-12-08T02:49:00.000-05:002008-12-08T02:49:00.000-05:00I'm cracking up.

The reason for this is that when we were all at home it never failed when something big was coming up that needed to be done, my dad would decide to move the woodpile. Yes this happened more than once. Going on vacation tomorrow---lets move the woodpile. Guest coming for a party---lets move the woodpile. : ) It makes for a great memory. I don't have a woodpile, but there is always something I get busy doing when I need to be doing other things--just like my dad! <BR/>: )Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13664673474528230532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8688951980399020435.post-19719846376044060592008-12-03T17:57:00.000-05:002008-12-03T17:57:00.000-05:00Good for you, I like to call that "Goose Chase Cle...Good for you, I like to call that "Goose Chase Cleaning"...
