You don't want to talk to my missus, she is for ever asking can you do so and so, around the house. I reply well I'd love to you know I would, but I need to do this before that, but that will have to wait until after the growing season is over!!!

There's even a name for it Ananke. It's yak shaving.
Seth's Blog: Don't Shave That Yak!
Well the sun's shining now so I'm off to see whether Grumpy needs some help moving those plants to a temporary holding pen so he can empty the 16' x 4' x 18" raised bed and move it so we can move the strawberries there so we can... shave that yakThe problem with rounded personalities is they don't tesselate.

thats the story of my life and I am so glad I am not alone with this affliction.
I think the best method for me was to write out a list starting with the one thing I wanted to achieve then going down putting each thing I would need to do before doing #1, then starting at the bottom and working my way up until I achieved the thing I wanted to do in the first place. the trick though is to not get sidetracked whilst on my mission. until i got to #1 nothing else must be allowed to interfere.
Only then was I allowed to start another mission.

Worst thing for me is having this laptop in the kitchen - so that every time I pass it I just have to check.......! I'm in the middle of washing up the dishes, putting away some veg, cooking a meal., sorting some seeds, and drying the washing on the stove. With luck, I'll finish them all soon
