Today I will crochet.....

Okay, all you crafters and fellow crocheters will appreciate this post,lol.

I wake up in the morning (many at that) and feel a bit sluggish. I know I should relax due to my health so I state in earshot of anyone in the house "I think today I will curl up and crochet". I then proceed to the kitchen and realize it needs to be straightened up. So I clean. Then I state "next I will crochet". Then the phone rings and I catch up with my sister. And then I notice laundry needs to be done. And then I realize the carpet needs vacuuming. And then, and then, and then..................

What is it about a work in progress that gets us to procrastinate and put it so low on the priority pole that it never even gets looked at for the day? You see I have set myself a goal. I am going to submit one of my works. I have put it off for long because I am very hard on myself. I have finally decided to just toss my hands up and do it. However the doing part is coming along slowly, lol. I am pretty sure what it boils down to is I love to do my craft work and crochet. I love it so much, that even if I am completing projects for sale I feel I am having too much fun. Therefore I get up and start doing house work, or tasks that everyone hates but someone has to do. I guess it is sort of a form of self punishment for spending time doing something that I love.

So does anyone else out there understand the guilt attachment, or am I nuts??
(No comments from the peanut gallery on the nuts part thank you!!!!!)
