kinda not sure what to do with myself now.......some more pottering no doubt :P

You can have a go at attacking my list for me :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I'm beginning to think I just write lists so I can look at them at a later date and say "oh yeah, that's what I was going to do"

Must admit my weekends are when most things get done, during the week it's just those rolling jobs of washing, ironing, menu planning etc.

Tonight's jobs are to do a menu for next week, shopping list and vaccuum living room.

Well I've managed to ignore the horrible sicky headachey lack of sleepy feeling I've had for a couple of days due to what I need to do! But now I'm home those feelings are back with a vengeance! I've not heard back from one of my emails which I could have done with really, and I know I'll get asked about it tonight. Not that it's my fault I haven't had a reply, but I'll probably be made to feel it is Still all sorts to organise and I know I'm not going to get any sort of Easter break (even though I'm away for half of it!)

Well today i got up at 5 so it feels like lunchtime already lol

still struggling quite a bit with low mood and pain in my hips - can't sit, can't lie down and can't stand - i wonder if headstands would work.......LOL

so its another pottering day for me and i'd like to just finish off my list from yesterday really:

hoover upstairs - done
swaggers target - done
free bingo - done
clean 1 bathroom type place - ensuite done
pay tv licence - done

Also need to collect meds and confirm psych appointment.

Why is it when i have things to do i end up doing something completely different??? LOL I've:

tidied downstairs
washed dishes
unpacked my box of ornaments and cleaned them all
tidied bedroom -
added photos to ebay listings

I soooooooo don't want to go out today in that awful weather not sure its going to get any better though for a few days! - Decided to risk it being better tomorrow so i can collect my meds (knowing my luck it will be worse but sure LOL)

:TSuccess! Finally, I have achieved a full list. Ok so there were only 3 tasks on it but still...:T Maybe I should work on a day to day basis instead of a weekly one. Also logged meter readings, electricity usage is down but gas is up a bit. Goint to try turning temp down a touch, need it on to get all my washing dried:D

SO tonight's jobs are change bedding and wash it, clean bathroom then relax. Tomorrow I need to go shopping, visit parents and make a card for friend's daughter's birthday next week.

Yey, well done

I find it much easier to work on a day to day basis, sometimes with reminders for something i can't do today but need to remember to do on there as well. Try the daily option and see how you get on
