Do you  usually have several projects going at once
or
Do you finish one project before starting another?
 
Are you organized, calm  and timely finishing tasks
 
or scattered, overwhelmed  and always trying to catch up?

I can multitask--and usually do, as I like everything done at once.  Ever notice--most men are poor at multitasking.  That must be why they are not mothers.

OOOOoooh, this is an interesting question. I have many many ( hundreds, maybe!) projects going at the same time ( some are "going" more than others).
 
The thing I find interesting are the choices because I'm disorganized, scattered, calm and get things done on time.If I need something done by a specific time, say Christmas,I work on it until I get tired of looking at it and I work on something else that needs to be done as well ( there's always more than one project going on). Once  it's really crunch time, I'll just keep going till it's done.

Generally just one project at a time.
No, sometimes get bored and start something new.
I'm mostly organized and sometimes too calm, then the days pass to quickly, then I'm overwhelmed trying to get things accomplished on time.

I'm pretty good at multitasking, but am also guilty of having numerous things started waiting to be finished.  There just don't seem to be enough hours in the day!  Oddly enough, I work best under pressure.

Unorganized and  a procrastinator. Some projects don't get finished until the last minute. I hate being that way.... would rather be organized, motivated and timely.

At work; I am very articulate and punctual and able to multi-task and meet deadlines.  However, at home, I multi-task, but often get side tracked and behind.  Then I am great under pressure to accomplish what needs to get done.  I think the reason I'm always playing catch up at home is that I work 3 PT jobs and then when I get home, it is difficult to work around my DH when he is laid up and unable to move around.  Our house is so tiny and there is no where to escape and work quietly and diligently on something.  My life is a bit more scattered at home.  I usually crash and burn.

 I'm retired but I treat my art with dicipline so I can get my 5 hours a day in of painting in. I must do my the menial stuff first and get it out of the way. If I don't, it interferes with my focus when I paint.
I always finish something before I start a new piece.
 I multitask when I'm doing chores to get it finished fast.
I'm extremely organized! I was brought up by a mother who believed "A Place For Everything and Everything In It's Place"
I'm not scattered and always on time.. Don't have patience for people who are not.
Nope I'm not rigid...lol

When the kids was home I was more together and home ran like clock work. I am a list maker and love to see crossed out completed. Now i am older esp. this last year I am more layed back more dependent on Tina to do what I can't. Like I do all the sewing and repairing of clothes and the folding of our laundry and ironing. The sit down work. She does all the get down on your knees stuff windows floors tub sinks toilet and taking care of the bird cage. cleaning stoves refrigators carring in groceries. I just couldn't make it without her.
Hugs Geri
