Getting Sidetracked

This morning, I got up early thinking I could accomplish a lot before nine.   I needed to clean off the coffee table and the living room.  I picked up some books that needed replacing on the bookshelves, but I read a chapter out of a book that I got for Christmas.  As I put the books away, I saw my husband's Nook, and browsed it before putting it away in this office.  Once in the office, I found a couple of shirts that needed hanging up.  In my bedroom where I hung up the shirts, I noticed the quilt that I am working on.  I had stop that with all the company here, but I thought it wouldn't hurt to thread the sewing machine and it get it ready for quilting later today.  That done, I walked back to living room, but glancing in the laundry room, I noticed the hamper full, so I thought I should start a load of clothes.  I went into the kitchen to get a cup of coffee, so I would have energy to finish the living room.  I noticed my laptop covered with papers, so I sorted those, and spied a book (Lark Rise to Candleford) that my daughter and I reading together, so I texted her to see if she had planned to read a chapter that day.  She had, so I did. 

Now, my husband opens the fridge to have a look, his diet makes him look at food, not eat it, when I notice the turkey needed to packaged and put in the freezer.  That job done, and feeling satisfied, and turn to walk into the living room, when I see my hometown newspaper, The Tecumseh Chieftain, on the dining table with the Sudoku puzzle up.  I worked a little on that.  It is now half past  nine  o'clock, and as I turned to finally attack the living room coffee table;  my husband walks in and says, "Are you ready to go to town?"  I forgot that we had to run errands today!

I need some serious classes in time-management!
