Yes, for things I don't want to do.

I learnt this word in a Latin class at school about 100 years ago.

Cras is the Latin for tomorrow. I think Pro means 'for'; the rest is obvious!

Well, I wouldn't say that I was a procrastinator........but I do believe in living my life by the saying:

"never do today, that which can be done tomorrow" ;-))))

You will never know about which day it comes,
But you're watching for it, anyway.
And I wonder if you really know somehow,
I'm just buying your Christmas card today.

Procrastination, Procrastination
Is making me late.
It's keeping you waiting.

Should I tell you how sorry I feel at this moment.
Maybe I should wait 'til around three.
But I rehearsed excuses late last week,
Now I am thinking maybe I could tell you Friday.

Procrastination, Procrastination
Makes me hesitate.
You're anticipating.

But then, perhaps you'll think I'm apathetic.
Don't care 'bout it, 'cause I'm just not that way.
I'll come by to give you your Christmas card now.
Just stay right there, 'cause I'll be a couple days.

I'll be a couple days.
I'll be a couple days.
Your card is on its way.
Maybe sometime in May.

procrastination is the thief of time - now that is profound!!!!

I work on the "put off today what you could do tomorrow because when tomorrow comes you may not have to do it at all" it was my Dad's philosophy and it worked for him

I suppose I do procrastinate. On the other hand, I like to get things done and have them out of the way - so I guess that means that I would be happy if someone else would do them for me - then I wouldn't have to procrastinate!

Am I making sense - or circles?

No . I make every effort not to procrastinate.........except in the area of keeping windows clean . I have found that if you clean your windows on a regular basis then no one notices.......I much prefer letting them get well and truly disgraceful......then I clean them and every one , even the children , comment..........lol
