    Wear my hair in the same ponytail position for 2-3 days and then have the worst scalp pain

    Check my email "really quickly" when I get up in the middle of the night

    Let DS talk me into "one more" cartoon in the morning. He can handle two, but three makes him a grouch for the rest of the morning. But there are days when I really need to get more stuff done, and I cave...

      Put a basket of clean clothes on my dresser to "put away later".

      Sweep a pile of dirt in to a remote corner and leave it there with the broom to "sweep up later".

      Have high calorie meals before dinner with the plan to just eat a salad and nothing more that evening.

        Say I'll go running in the afternoon instead of the morning.

        Allow DH to come in to say goodnight to DD when he gets home 5 minutes before bedtime...45 minutes later, she's not even close to sleep.

          Eat junkfood when I darn well know I will physically feel bad (especially when I have been eating healthy) AND feel rotten later if I gain weight.

            Eat beef and pork knowing they make me nauseous.

            Let mail pile up instead of going through it all and tossing what we don't need to keep.

              I don't want to do Anything out of my home today. I told DH to take the car to work today so I have no ability to go anywhere today. I'm so sick of being on the go.

                Leave folded clothes on my dresser for weeks.

                Talk myself out of exercising in the mornings.

                Start surfing iMSN, facebook, Ravelry, or Pinterest right before bed.

                Knit just one more row, or cast on just one more quick project.

                    Over eat with the intention of working out after the kids go to bed. Ahahahahaha! Then I wonder why my pants don't fit so well.

                        Let myself cheat on my diet knowing it will a) make me feel like crap physically, b) make it harder to stick to my guns in the long run, c) drag out the weight loss process, and d) make me temporarily hate myself for lack of willpower.

                          Leave folded clothes in the laundry basket "until tomorrow". Then just grabbing things out of it for the next week. Same thing with the clothes that require hanging. I'll drape them over the couch and they'll stay there for days (DH's biggest gripe).

                          Probably about 30% of my food choices (either timing, too much, too little, too shitty but delicious, or not eating all together)

                          Hitting snooze literally a dozen times before getting out of bed. The idea that I'd just be more rested if I set my alarm to 7:15a instead of 6:00a and hitting snooze every 9 minutes is just something I can't be convinced of.

                            Not hanging up my business clothes when I get home from a trip.

                              But you don't HAVE to go to the post office. Your mailman will pick up the packages. And shipping costs less when you do it online through USPS.com
