Morning Meanderings… Deadlines

2a1

Good morning!  As I sit here this morning well into that first cup of coffee, still in my p.j.s, contemplating this meandering… all I can wrap my head around are deadlines.

Today I have an 800 word article due to a local magazine about my friend Connie and Camp Benedict.  I have a few details to tweak into the story so I reach my “time to go to work” moment I have a wee bit of “come on!  Get ‘er done!”

I need to get registered for the Monster Series races yet this week.  This is a series of runs that you sign up for as a group and there are some cool extras with that deal. This will be my gift for Christmas form my hubby and I am super excited about it as the Monster Series completion is on my bucket list.  Of course… I should have done this a couple weeks ago, therefore now having missed early packet pick up…. egads….  (sorry Belinda but thanks for checking for me!)

With all the “not so awesome” snow we picked up in the storm of the last couple of days… I also need to shovel decks this afternoon when I get home.

There are bookish things I could talk about… the Library Open House is this Saturday, I set the window for holiday reading last night and hope to build the book tree either this afternoon or tomorrow morning.

Ok speaking of deadlines… I must get ready for work.  Any “deadlines” hanging over your head this week?    And why do they call them deadlines? When you think about it – its a horrible name. 😀  I prefer…. opportunities for procrastination.  😉

  1. I’m cold just looking at your snow! SHIVER!! And I just finished reading a book set in Minnesota, so I was already feeling it. (Carla Buckley’s Invisible).

    Deadlines is definitely a weird name….I like yours. Enjoy!

  2. I would really like one snowfall before Christmas. All the Christmas lights people have up look so much better with snow and I want to take pictures. The last few years we haven’t had a decent snowfall until after, though. 😦

    I wanted to make a book tree… I might next year…

    And, I got the James Patterson book at the second hand store last night when I went hunting for Watership Down for my sister. They had a hardcover and everything.

  3. Oh brrrrrrr. That snow is giving me the shivers and we are still snow-free here in Chicago. But not for long. 😦

    LOL at opportunities for procrastination. I have lots of those, including getting the yard cleaned up and everything put away in the garden shed for winter… which I finally finished yesterday in the rain. Ice in the rain barrels… not good! I like to pretend it will stay warm and I have lots of time to git-er-done!

  4. Wow, that’s a lot of snow! We have nothing here in my neck of Canada. We had a dusting once, but it was gone that day.
    Ah, works for me anyway… not a fan of the white stuff.
