This has simply got to be my worst habit. For example, when Flip posted her monthly Photo Quest, I immediately did all the photos for the challenge bar one and while it should be relatively simple to get off my arse and photograph a petrol station, it has taken me well over a week to finally get around to it.
So now I might do the finishing touches and get it posted!

As for procrastinating, I have made a firm decision to no longer do it. I will do things straight away as I think of it.

Ahh, that is easier said than done, I’ll stop procrastinating tomorrow!
