My name is Jenn, and I'm a 27 year old married and babied chick. In addition to a husband, a seven year old daughter, and a five year old autistic son, I also have four cats, three hermit crabs, two frogs, a few fish, and one snorty little Pug. I work from home doing a variety of writing and even some web design. I love blogging, digital photography and web design.
I purchased my mother’s Mother’s Day gift today. This isn’t a big deal for some, but it is for me, since I almost always wait until the last minute to get gifts for holidays. My husband’s birthday? I went shopping THAT DAY and THE DAY BEFORE. My mother’s birthday? THE NIGHT BEFORE. Christmas 2003? CHRISTMAS FREAKIN’ EVE. My husband’s birthday from last year? THAT AFTERNOON.
I don’t know why I slack. 
I think of gifts and such when it’s a month or more ahead of time, but then I think, “oh, it’s too early to get it now!”, and so I wait. And wait and wait and wait, until I’m rushing around to get stuff in time. Like my mother’s Mother’s Day gift? Normal shipping would have been $9, but it would take 3-7 business days to arrive. I don’t want to chance it not arriving in time, so I coughed up $21 to get it here within three business days. I. Suck.
One of these days I’ll be on top of things, I swear…
