Ugh. I am so frustrated with how little I got done. However, I did do two very special things with my son yesterday, and I am really glad I decided to do those things. I just wish I used my other time more effectively for other things. But I feel great that he got to have a great day with his mama <3

Thank you so much for starting the thread, jalla. Hope you have a great Sunday.
life is pretty hectic at the moment. I have done what i needed to do this morning - that was easy and scheduled and enjoyable, but for the last week i have just been in reactive mode. Now l have a lot that must be done but little scheduled. It is noon, and time to take stock or i shall fall into a procrastinating heap.

Two priorities
1. Plan November and December. I really need a countdown plandfor several different areas of my life, until i have clarified what they are i cannot prioritise them properly, this is important and urgent.
do this with poms: pom 1 brainstorm. Pom 2. Mark out areas on sheets of paper on floor or wall and add things to be done as i think of them. Pom 3 +. Take topics in twos, if needs be break them down further and detailwhat next actions should be. Cluster actions by context..eg Town, email.....
2. Very urgent prepare script for Wed, and enough prepared for discussion tomorrow pm - 1 pom each stopping point on a different sheet. Pom 2 topics for each stopping point. Pom 3 brainstorm what i need to research further. Pom 4 and subsequent. Shorts bursts of research for each topic so i don't lose myself down rabbit holes.
4 pm walk with B - that will be nice
take stock of what i have achieved so far, and work out a plan of action.
DON'T OVERDO IT
Eat healthy meal - no food in house - go and buy some veggies.
