* I agree Lark =)

I am writing at 10:15 PST, so I don't have much left of my Friday... However, tomorrow, I plan to make shorter lists, be more specific about my tasks and check in more frequently - every hour or two. I think it will help me focus and feel successful.

TO DOs - Next check in @ 11:30

X answer work emails
X note to M
* follow up on requests from DV
* update WASC assessment participation chart
* two portfolios
X recycle old letters

Check In 1:20 - fell asleep at midnight after finishing only three of my tasks! =( My timing is soooo off... Tomorrow is another day.

Friday, June 22 CI

I haven't done much all day.  I actually found this site while procrastinating.  I am sure that I am not the first one who has done that.

I want to get the following task done: put away office material sitting out in the hall.  I just cleaned out my home office, and those materials have been sitting there for three days now.  I will check back in as soon as I get that done.

I am off to get the task done.  I will begin as soon as I post this. 

I actually did what I said that I was going to do, and it only took about 25 minutes.  Smile

Now, I am going to get the stuff that needs to go to Goodwill ready to go.  I am feeling really good right now.  I will soon have another task completed.  Off I go!

I have now finished getting the stuff together.  I tried to take it to our Goodwill drop off at the mall, but it already had stuff sitting outside.  Apparently some other people were not deterred by the $1000 fine that you would receive if caught.  I on the other hand didn't think it was worth the risk.

Next, I am going to go and work on the kitchen for 20 minutes.  After that, I may quit for the night if I so choose.  I will update one last time before going to bed.  I am feeling better already after a pretty miserable day due to my procrastination.

I have completed my 20 minutes and got quite a bit done in that time.  I am now going to get ready for bed and read for a bit before going to sleep.

Tomorrow morning,
I will make my plan for the morning which will definitely include exercise and recycling before or after lunch, probably after.

I hope that everyone has a productive Saturday tomorrow!  Smile

Hey - you did great for a first visit!

Thanks for the well wishes to the rest of us. Hope you have a good day, tomorrow, as well! =)
