On putting things off

[norsegirl]

A few people on my friendslist have been posting about putting things off in their life. It's interesting because this is the first time in my life that I'm not putting things off. I've bought a house and had my first child. I'm finally a grown-up.

About the only thing I'm "putting off" at the moment is getting a work permit and starting a career this side of the border and maybe getting a second car so Jason and I don't have to share. I don't feel like I'm putting that off so much as getting something else done that needs doing first. In a year or two, when Georgia is older and weaned I'll look into getting that second income fired up again. And when the second income starts up and I actually need a car, that's when we'll start looking into that.

It's not so much putting it off as there being a time for everything.

In other news, got some baby gifts finished today. I'll post pictures later.

Nah. If that were the case, then most of the people in Toronto would still be children! ;P

Everything in its time! I totally agree with you. I have some baby gifts here for you, but thought I'd keep them until you come later this month.
