Over the years I've joked that the first initial in my name could either stand for procrastination, pessimist or my favorite perfectionist. Actually my first husband came up with the procrastination and pessimist when we were watching the newlywed game on tv. The question was what two words describe your wife using her initials. Mine at the time were P & P. I added perfectionist years later after my mother gave me book on how to become more organized (hint, hint, wink, wink). There was a line that said sometimes people who are perfectionists will put off starting new projects because in their minds if they do not have enough time to do it right so they won't do it at all.
