Isn't this always the way?

Well it's Friday afternoon and I have actually managed to send my revised article back on time. For all my procastinating over the reference list once I sat down yesterday and made myself attack it, it didn't really take too long. Isn't this always the way? Sadly though, the time I have spent on these revisions this week meant that the book revisions and writing took a back seat - AGAIN. I'm giving myself a deadline of the end of August to be through all chapters once. Then I can take a step back and try to decide what really needs doing in terms of the overall project.
