The dishes are washed, my teeth are brushed, and I'm ready for bed. I didn't get done everything I might have wanted, but I got a lot done and I did what was most urgent.

I put away the clean laundry, and I made/ate dinner. I'm feeling tired now. My leg only hurts a little - I've been trying to stay off it. I want to go to bed early tonight so I can get up early and get to work early. I don't want to go to bed right away, though, because I just ate. Maybe I'll have some tea.

I started to put away the laundry, and then my right knee started hurting again. It was fine all day. I think I'll stay off it for a while. Maybe I'll be able to put the laundry away later.
I'm not sure about dinner - maybe I'm not hungry enough to stress my knee.

The laundry - finally - is done. Yowzers, this was bad. I had so much that the carrying up and down the stairs part was truly painful. My bad hurts. Now I have to put it all away, but I'm going to take a break first for dinner.

Welcome RR!!
Hi - nice to have some check-in company on the weekend.
We have some of the same tasks to do. I just dragged a zillion pounds of laundry up the stairs and now I have to put it away. I keep my receipts so (theoretically) I can enter them into my money management program, but I'm years behind.
What helps me most is to check in frequently - at the beginning and end of each task. Start of day and end of day isn't enough - doesn't work for me that way. So I hope you check in again soon with your progress!

I finally made it to the laundromat. Four loads - wow. It was heavy to carry down the stairs. Now it's all in two dryers except for the bit that needs to drip dry. I'm home now to hang that up, then back to the laundromat.
I got to the grocery store today, also, so I'm not doing too bad. I still have some cleaning and desk work to do.

elisaveth check in and out
This weekend was a wash: the week was very productive, but I slept all weekend long. I did bits and pieces of things which were important, but I found that they were exhausting, usually because they were emotionally taxing. Tonight as I look around my room I see the unfinished business of my life and I am not happy about it.
For tonight:
brush teeth
wash face
choose clothing
read the big book
journal
sleep at a reasonable hour
For tomorrow
water
meds
shower
make bed
dishwasher
go through the paperwork on my chair
seamstress
shoe guy
transfer money
return movie
photocopy Friday's work
dust mop
plan dinner
drop off plates for animal bazaar
buttons
20 minutes of taxes
20 minutes of practicum
read a chapter of ka
walk to work
brown dye for boots
and more...
sleep
Sometimes we need sleep. Sounds like you did this weekend, or you wouldn't have. Don't beat yourself up. We all need rest.

12:20PM CI for Lark Success!
Hi everyone. Yep, I'm sort of where you are today Pro. Last night I visited a friend and we watched tv till the middle of the night. The drive home was slippery, so I returned very tired, but flowing with adrenalin! Kept nodding off in church this morning, so the day's prognosis is bleak unless I take a short nap when I log off.
To do:
(X)morning things
(X) spiritual time
X)short nap
(X)clean house
(X)clean up workshop a bit and prep tomorrow's work
pro's CI - 12 noon
I'm dressed and the laundry is sorted. I'm going to go to the grocery store and make some lunch before I leave to do laundry.

Still puttering around my apartment - doing stuff that isn't urgent to do rather than my doing my laundry. But now there is something else I'd like to do this afternoon, so I need to move or I won't be able to do it. In fact, it may already be too late.
Actually, what I'm thinking of doing involves driving and it's going to be raining and sleeting today. Maybe I should wait until next week.

Looks like the event I was going to go to this afternoon isn't happening. It's just as well - the weather is supposed to be lousy, and I haven't done my laundry yet. I got involved in some cooking stuff. I guess I'll just do my regular old chores today. Maybe I'll watch a movie later - something to remind me it's the weekend.

the procrastination urge is coming upon me
I should be getting ready to do laundry now, and the mere thought makes me want to lie down on the couch and turn on the television.

I'm up later again this morning than I've been getting up. I'm still a little screwed up for staying up all night the night before last.
I have something I want to do this afternoon but I also have laundry that must get done, so I think I'll do my laundry early (what a concept!).
