multi-tasking........................

For those of you who know me well, it is impossible to argue with the fact that I am a horrible phone friend. I am awful at calling people back and even answering the phone at times is overwhelming for me. My number one struggle with the phone (which is why I am not on it all that much) is it consumes me to the point where I am stuck sitting in a chair so I can focus on the conversation while everything turns into chaos around me. Many of my friends can accomplish so many tasks while wandering around their homes and chit chatting on the phone- not me- I must simply focus on the person I am speaking with or I cannot hold a conversation due to my distraction. Yesterday while chatting on the phone I decided to give the whole multi tasking a try. I was in the middle of making tons of cup cakes with my daughter. In the midst of my phone conversation, I took a dozen cupcakes that were cooled to begin the job of icing them. It wasn't until I hung up the phone that I realized I had iced 12 cupcakes with RAW CUPCAKE BATTER! I swear each time I deliver a child, my brain cells are cut in half. Salmonella frosting anyone? the cupcakes in the picture above were some of the few that got the right icing put on them- of course they were frosted when I was no longer trying to multi-task.
