Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.
In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.
If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!
My question is:
What’s one thing you’ve been putting off doing?

I have been putting off finishing painting the house…only two rooms left!
I’ve been putting off going back to the doctor to have my cholesterol rechecked.
i’ve been putting off organizing all my art supplies for a REALLY long time.
Cleaning out my office/workroom so that we can turn it into a bedroom for my twins. Partly because it’s a mess, partly because I’ll be sad to move them out of our room and partly because I’ll be sad not to have the office anymore.
I have to pick only one? Well, I’ve been putting off making dentist appts for the kids.
I have been putting off a pedicure. I am getting one tomorrow and I am so EXCITED! I rarely do anything for myself, I feel too guilty if I do. This is my first time participating in Aloha Friday. I look forward to meeting some new bloggers. Take care.

I have a very special and dear to my heart letter to respond to and I’m having trouble putting my thoughts and feelings into words. Thus I’ve delayed my response.
I think the easier question would be what haven’t I been putting off.
I need to buy furniture and decorations. I need to set up a professional website, fix my new blog, write articles, read the 1000+ unread posts in my google read and clean my house.
Getting a bulb fixed on my truck so I can get it inspected.
I have been putting off cleaning the garage…but I am determined to do it by the end of summer.
I’ve been putting off packing up the downstairs. We’re getting new flooring put in next week, and I haven’t done a thing!
Decluttering my house and helping my kids clean out their dressers of too-small clothing. Great summer tasks to do when hibernating from the heat.
I have so much stuff accumulated over the past few years in my basement and I really need to get it together and have a yard sale, so I can unclutter. But there’s so much to go through, I just don’t want to lol
getting a mammogram. making an appointment for an eye check-up. painting one of our bedrooms. cleaning out my closet. working on a personal project. book a flight for an end of year trip. do you want me to go on…..
Just one thing???
OK … folding the laundry.
Right now?? Going to bed (it’s almost 2am here). Otherwise, I’ve got a whole list…
I have been putting off a lot of things…but primarily organizing my home.
I put off cleaning the shower all the time. That and yardwork. I need to do much better at both but I’m never motivated to do either.
Cleaning. lol I hate cleaning. I need someone to do it all for me!

Scrubbing my tub! But I’m going to have to get at it, since my little one is outgrowing his ducky tub.

One thing? Just one? I have so many! I am in the middle of a big basement reorganization and I desperately need to finish that!!!
Going to the dentist. haha!
That is a long list!
Washing my cars which I did yesterday but now I need to cut the grass which I am putting off!
I have framed the basement two or three years ago…..I keep putting off finishing it. I really should, I could send the kids downstairs….Realistically…I am a big procrastinator. xoxoxo
Taking outgrown clothes and donating them, I just let them pile up and then bag them. And, then they go to the basement. Thus a very cluttered basement.
updating my customer mailing list but I just finished it last night!
Seeing the dentist about my toothache. :-X
Clearing out the weeds around the bushes in front of my house, I hate yard work!

Getting in shape! I’ve been putting it off for years…
Hanging up pictures in our “new” (moved in a year ago) house!
i’d have to say i’ve been avoiding that $600 bill from the God school bus my kids ride every day.
i didn’t know i had to pay for it until i received the bill in the mail for the whole year!
i’m pretending it doesn’t exist.
then it’ll go away.

I feel like I’ve been putting off a lot – my to-do list seems so long – LOL! But probably the biggest thing is I had a wisdom tooth come through during my last pregnancy that needs to come out. My dentist wouldn’t do it while I was pregnant – my baby is now 5 months old but I havent gone back to get it taken out yet. Maybe I will now move it up higher on my to-do list : )
specifically this morning: getting out of my pajamas
