Do you find yourself working on one 'project' in the game only to be distracted by another idea, and then before you know it, you have 10 differnt things going on that you want to finish but can't possibly?

Totally. I just finished a wheat farm and a reed farm. I am currently working on: 1) taking down a hill above my house that drops exploding creepers onto my new reed and wheat farms; 2) putting in a security wall to prevent zombies, etc from reaching my new farms; 3) building a tower I can see from a distance so I don't get lost in my wonderings anymore; 4) exploring a mine I dug under my place; 5-6) exploring several caves near my place; and 7) finishing a tree farm I have been working on for some time.

And when I drive too and from work, I think of additional things I need to do. And when I play, I get sidetracked by caves and other interesting things that keep me from completing my current list of tasks.

I love this game.

by security wall do you mean fences? Monsters and animals cannot jump fences to reach your farms. As for the monsters dropping in from a cliff. You could build a greenhouse and fill the greenhouse with torches so the crops even grow at night.

I normally make my walls out of rock because they survive creeper blasts better.

I finished my tower today and thought it would be cool to make a lavafall from on top of the tower so I could see it better at night. However, I forgot to dig a channel for the lava first. I burned down my entire tree farm. I could only put it out by dumping water on a square above the lava flow, creating a waterfall and turning the lava into cobblestone. Now the mountain my tower is on has a cobblestone shell. Lava is dangerous.

Time to replant my tree farm...
