By leaving it till the last minute you ensure that the task is completed in the shortest amount of time required! <br /><br />Ok, so it also increases the stress and headache... but still. Efficiency! That's a silver lining! So keep relaxing and not worrying about those deadlines - you're just being efficient :)Kathryn Elisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04900009184145348639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-40857329309510731442012-01-13T07:32:28.243+11:002012-01-13T07:32:28.243+11:00I'm on the other side, my other gig when I'...I'm on the other side, my other gig when I'm not on holidays is to hang out with kids a l l day long.

All the Xmas chaos, even the chilling, freaks me out a bit. Though we do have a pretty darn relaxed life most of the time anyway. Enjoy your drifting, Al.

I'm loving it. Lazy days, sleep ins, all-day pyjama days, hanging out with my girls. It's going to be hard to get back to the rhythm and routine of the school run (damn you, 6am wake-ups!). Making sandwiches, peeling fruit, locating library books, hunting for missing shoes/hair elastics/excursion slips (aaarrggghh, my blood pressure's rising just thinking about it!) Three cheers for lazy days!Jess WhoaMammahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12137190564912696355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1495198733430494988.post-38996067335814425142012-01-12T22:44:59.585+11:002012-01-12T22:44:59.585+11:00I've realised these holidays I don't drift...I've realised these holidays I don't drift very well.
