Happy Saturday! Editing Procrastination!

I'm supposed to be working on edits for the final book in my Season Sisters series. "Supposed" to be working on it, but my mind is everywhere else but there.

I'm sitting in my home office watching the new neighbors clean up their yard. I've got Jaws playing in the background. I'm thinking up trips to take in the fall (contingent on the coronavirus status). I'm looking at YouTube videos of Bible journaling, how to setup a planner, and 101 ways to fill up a notebook/journal. I've done laundry, cooked bacon, cleaned up around the house. I'm doing everything but what I have on my calendar for today (Chapter 30-Conclusion Edits on Book 4: Summer).

Are there times when you KNOW you "need" to be doing something but find it difficult to concentrate on what you're needing to do?

I know I should turn the tv off (I've seen Jaws like 1000 times). I know what I need to be doing. I just can't find the will to do it (not that the book is bad...). However, this book is not scheduled for publication until December. Therefore, my mind is telling me to enjoy the day and work on it when I feel the inspiration to work on it.

How do you reel yourself back into your "to-do" list for the day? Do you have those days (Saturdays mainly) where you just decide deadlines and "to-do" lists can wait?
