Loner ~  To procrastinate is human, to
         get your work done is divine!

Mysteria ~ I can spout these pearls of
          wisdom, but I have a hard time
          walking the talk! lol

Toe ~ I'm sure when you dive into anything
      it is done with passion and athletic
      grace! You've accomplished far more
      than most people in  your short
      72 years! LOL

suppose the spark died
and you couldn't pay the costs
look who's in trouble!

(giggles in delight) Oh my gosh, I know just what you mean, sometimes the inspiration doesn't come right away but if you wait forever and it never came, ooohhhhhhh...then you'd be in for it! LOL! I don't procrastinate either unless there was something really important in my schedule! This is excellent, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,

As you well know, dear Noah--

Don't procrastinate;
Inspiration may not come
--Grab pen and write it!

Yes, 'tis true!

well, now, I'd like this poem for its exactness to the form...but it's much too nagging for Friday morning when I'm in pain from a fall yesterday

besides...I think procrastinating is my hobby!

VAS ~

Sorry to hear of your fall! --I'm sending you some distant healing from here in Ontario, to all the way out there in Oregon!

As I've said before, I may be able to spout these pearls of wisdom---but it is hard to walk the talk! haha

Get well soon!

Long John ~

Oh, no! You mean it's true?!? You really are a "kitty kicker"?!? All this time I have been one of your greatest defenders! hehe

To all those who I had deemed ill-informed about Long John's character, I profoundly--and profusely--appologize! Long John is indeed a card-carrying member of the
KKK---Kitty Kicker Konfederation! LOL

Nope, not diving in, water is not good for a witch. Remember Sister West? Yep, Dorothy got her good with that little dog of hers.

I'll wait if you don't mind.

won't dive in either! LOL

You and I so often think alike, I don't know which witch is which!

Ethel ~ Thank you!--and you're welcome!

Sue ~  Years ago, when I was procrastinating
       forever about doing something, one of
       my friends said to me, "Just do it!"
       That stuck in my head, and spurs me on
       at times when I get stuck in first
       gear!
