Morning :wave:
Sarah, you're really powering through your list this week.
Emily, how are you doing? I think aiming at a couple of things a day is a good way to look at it - it all gets done eventually (or the need for it to be done goes away :rotfl:).
Today I will- Do my daily scratch/clicks routine. Done
- Clear out some paperwork at work.
- Throw/recycle/donate one thing.
- Do something to make me look/feel physically better.
- Have something to eat and wash-up before I put the computer on when I come in from work.
- Do any new things that come in today.
- Do anything towards something on my weekly list!
