EleanorBE's Sunday list

EleanorBE - 14 Oct 2012 - 12:07pm

Thanks for the starter Amal.

I usually get one day off per week and when I'm not up against a writing deadline try to get a proper weekend. But this week I'm having to work every day. Sunday's list is - 

Work on La. chapter.


Get up more l/j/sci evidence

Find aus. review and embed in chapter- can't do this cos it's on a dead computer! Aargh. Will have to put 'get technician to recover files from dead computer' on a list.

Get email re. SF


Write N letter


Check fb for where dinner's with M's going to be. 

Go to film and dinner. Not that I'm likely to procrastinate about that but it's nice to write it down for the end of the day.
