So far, I have done weekly planning.

I'm going to try a new strategy for this week, to deal w/ my tendancy to make huge lists and not get through everything and feel like a loser and procrastinate as a result...I will list 1-2 tasks at once, do them, and then add when I finish.

So, to start:
Re-make figure 7 Slow, but done at 4:30pm Smile
VAD check
CM  Slow, but done at 8:40 pmLaughing

OK, let's add some more! (just small ones b/c it's late):
Email about images
Email KS, text KH Done at 9 pm Smile

Book listings(made progress but didn't quite finish)

And a few last ones for the night
Start geno dig done at 10am next morning
Review 200 abstracts (didn't even start)
Finish reading Done at 10:30 pm Wink
Shipping plan(made progress but didn't quite finish)

Happy Memorial Day!

Time to rest up from a big weekend, but there are a few things I want to get done. 

  • Exercise
  • qt
  • 1 load of laundry
  • clean out fridge
  • take vitamins 
  • Figure out what to make for dinner
  • dinner
  • dishes
  • straighten bedroom
  • Filing/dresser - threatening to become a pile again!
  • repot a plant
  • clean out the junk drawer
  • Redo habit tracker
  • Find the grill book
  • make a short grocery list for tomorrow 
I am totally off track on many of my good habits, after a couple of very stressful weeks.   I had been doing very well with my diet, exercise, daily quiet time, avoiding nervous habits, cutting down on caffeine . .. all that flew out the window the past couple of weeks.   I've been eating sweets, not exercising much, drinking too much coffee, picking at my hair and fingernails, and I haven't even been flossing!   Time to get back to mindfully taking care of my health.   To start with, I'm going for a jog/walk now.

Derailed from regular check in due to taking a couple of days off and part of the weekend to travel to town. I attended my older son's graduation :) and a family dinner for my mother's birthday among other things. Then yesterday when I got home needed to help my husband with unexpected (small) medical emergency.
