WAHM Fun: Ten Ways To Procrastinate Today

As a work at home Mom, I’m stressed out sometimes.  I try to eat stress for breakfast and stop it from getting to me but once in awhile I do turn into a stress monster.  It takes some effort to keep things together when you have  a dozen writers working for you, 2 boys,  a high maintenance boy toy man-child husband, pets and about a dozen clients to take care of.

I’m reminded of some of those “keeping sane in the workplace” chain letters with silly things you can do to amuse yourself at work.  I thought it might be fun to make a list of things I can do here to amuse myself when I actually should be working.  I’m not in a cubicle any more but with some of the online tools I have it’s kinda like being in a virtual cubicle farm…

Please feel free to add yours:

  1. Twitter myself a question and then and @answer myself for the amusement of my followers. (aka: http://twitter.com/DanaPrince/statuses/970817660) Ok, it’s probably only amusing to me.
  2. Google old boyfriends, ex-friends and try to find them on FaceBook. Hopefully I’m way hotter than they are.
  3. Kick the world’s butt at typingtest.com. 85wpm, tyvm.
  4. Check my earning stats on all my passive and active income streams.
  5. Google myself to see how great I look to potential clients who Google me. (Then go fix type-o’s that I’ve found as a result of Googling myself and my stuff!)
  6. Visit online forums. I spend waay too much time on those!
  7. Social bookmarking my stuff. Make link love to myself!
  8. Blog on one of my gazillion blogs
  9. Check out my online friends blogs and sites and social market for them.
  10. StumbleUpon.  Great fun! If you use it, feel free to friend me @ stumbleupon.marleymauve.com
