PWM - Post Working Mode

Today I've been doing another spin-in-place dance trying to land on a task and complete it.  So many choices! So much I want to do!  I spin in place and end up accomplishing nothing.
It started with putting on my knee-hi's.  They keep my feet warm while I walk around the house barefoot.  The first one had a run so I toss it and go back to the bedroom to replace it. While there, I see a tin box I use to store loose beads.  I covered the top in patterned paper last night and used rub-on letters to label it.
Clever, right?  Well, the sides still show the advertising for the original container so I take it to Cal and ask if he can paint the rest of the tin white.  After some discussion we decide it might mess up the paper on top because he wants to spray paint.  I decide to paint it by hand and coat with Mod Podge, but I take two other tins to him for him to paint.  Take one back because it's all white except for the advertising on the top and I'll cover that with paper.  Which I proceed to do.
I go into Justin's room (my craft room) to look for my acrylic paint and foam paintbrushes.  While there I see my many, many books on display and think I should check the authors in the OneClick database to see if I can get the book on audio and thus eliminate a paperback from my stash.
I go back to my room to start that task and see my Palm (where I keep an extensive book list by author-trust me, it's awesome) and that reminds me it needs to be charged.  I pick it up to take it back to the desk but see the second tin that I've covered with paper.
 I take the second tin to my desk to mark a straight line for the word I'll rub on. While there, I see my sewing machine set up in the living room so I can take in the waist of Ellie's stretch pants.  Which reminds me I need to go to JoAnn's to buy some thread and other essentials. I go back to my knee-hi's, which I now need so I can finish getting dressed and go to JoAnn's.
Easily distracted??  Me????  Surely, you jest.
