Back to work today! I've been to the gym, and socialized a little bit in the office catching up with everyone. Now I have about 600 emails to get through before making the rest of my todo list. I feel tired already! Oh well, once I get through today it will seem better, right? Oh, first thing I need to check on the agenda for the noon meeting.

OnceMore Checking Out
Wow! I had a good day. Could have been better, but not bad at all!
Woke up on time
Didn't immediately turn on fb/reddit/email
Did morning sit
Ate good breakfast
3 minutes late to first class (not a disaster)
Got all the prep needed for afternoon class done; proud of my performance in the project today
Came home, fed myself, no nap
Did sit in afternoon (!)
Did three loads of laundry
Worked out
Got derailed here--took a hot bath to avoid soreness and did very little for next 1.5 hours after that. I think I'll need to avoid baths <sigh>
Did dishes
Got pork started
Did a good 10 minutes on my taxes! Very proud of this one.
Started pork in the slow cooker
Ate a good dinner
My studying was a little scattered and chaotic--didn't really get momentum until 30 min before bedtime. Still, in the context of the day, not bad.
Cleaned closet some
Folded laundry
Now I have one more load to fold, then brush teeth and bed. Fun to see the list of stuff I did today--it feels like a lot.

My Check in
Thanks lennon
for starting.
Woke up late It is already 9:30 a.m
I am going to rotate my study subjects every 1hour throught the whole day to figure out how much i can accomplish in each subject.
Except for activities such as Yoga, Jogging , Meditation I am going to concentrate only on studying. I will update how much i accomplished later on.
rotating subjects
That is a great idea to rotate subjects so not to get overwhelmed with one at a time. It keeps it interesting, your mind is alert, and you might get more done that way.
I will try that as well with my tasks.
:)
Hi sasha, It's great
Hi sasha,
It's great that my idea helped you
. Though i couldn't complete my tasks as i happened to fix a problem with my computer. But will try this the next day. Let's know whether it worked for you.
Finding a way CI
Monday 10 am
Thanks for starting the daily forum, lennon.
Today I am keen to go, which is a nice change ;). Probably because I just had a 3 day weekend away at a music festival, which was fun. Glad I scheduled that early on!
Also we had a great online PA meeting this morning (well, morning in my time zone) - 12 people attended!
And my colleague has finally forwarded the new project to me, which is a relief as work was getting a bit thin on the ground.
So time to update my weekly list and start work.
Best wishes to everyone for a happy and productive start to the week!
