Just checking in to say I have a migraine today and may well do tomorrow. But am checking with the intent to do something if I can.

Feeling tired and a little sluggish, but I'm going to follow through on my regular Saturday schedule and try to work in a nap somewhere.

Have a great day everyone! 

Kodos--1:40

Kodos - 8 Sep 2012 - 1:40pm

Feeling a lot of resistance doing my most hated task--e-mail, but I read the article on time-binging, and I'm going to put in another 20 minutes on a timer and be done with it for the day. Then onto paperwork and my to-do list, but only for an hour...

Kodos--2:08

Kodos - 8 Sep 2012 - 2:13pm

Whew! Got pretty far on e-mail. Now a quick break, then...

2:15-3:00 paperwork

little break/snack 

3-4 sort out books

4:00-run, stop at store 

6:00-make dinner/eat

7:00 go to A's party

Just have to grind it out... 

 

Kodos--3:30 checkin

Kodos - 8 Sep 2012 - 3:33pm

Wow. I feel like I'm cranking a rusty wheel to get through my list today; it hasn't been pretty, but it's getting done.

Saturday...

hazyjane - 8 Sep 2012 - 5:45am

Finding it very difficult to get going and to make decisions!!!

  1. make a smoothie
  2. go to one-day convention (late)
  3. see a probably very crap play later cos it's free and ~I know someone in it
  4. make a healthy salad and some apple scones
  5. get my daughter to do some helpful things around here!! (such as hoover, recycling, dog-walking)
  6. do my exercises
  7. have a bath
  8. go to bed before midnight

That is all!

Thanks again Mole for a nice starter :)

sorry. just realised i shouldn't have replied so you could cross off...was creasing up...bit like my mum 'for the love of god'

No probs wasteofspace

Mole - 8 Sep 2012 - 9:20pm

I'd much rather know I'd made you laugh than have access to my list!!!Wink

A million apologies wasteoftime

Mole - 8 Sep 2012 - 9:50pm

I am so sorry about misnaming you. I have this completely ridiculous word predictor I don't seem to be able to turn off. And now I have started this And ruined my own editing options I realise I could have just gone back and changed it. Honestly how many paws can a Mole stuff in its snout at one time.Sealed

Just seen on another post that you are changing your name to Jay, phew - there's one mistake I needn't feel anxious about making again! 

lol

jay - 9 Sep 2012 - 3:16am

hahahaha how funny! you just cracked me up again, good to start the morning with a laugh, massive gaff though!!! waste of space- i love it haha

regards

you may refer to me as 'jay' see what your predicive does to that!

have a productive day
