Dillydally

My word for this week is dillydally.  An action word, or verb, it means "to waste time; dawdle" or "to postpone what you should be doing".


Hurry up -- we need to go!  Don't dillydally!


I think dillydally is a very silly word. :)  I used it several times last week, in a story I wrote about a very silly girl who loves to rhyme.  Can you guess what her name might be? 


(Hint: Part of it rhymes with dillydally.)*


I'd love to hear what silly... or not-so-silly... sentences you can come with, using the word dillydally!



*Her name is Silly Sally McMally.  Were you close?
