2) Use time more constructively.

1) Was pleased to get loads of these done :-
Compost to bin.
Courgette seeds sowed.
Secueters repaired.
Checked whether garden weeds are edible.
Repaired some pants and found some old more suitable ones for cycling.
Put away saved spare bicyle parts and tools.
Sort out mess in the kitchen from big food preparation and oven job.
Prepared this weeks food.
General tidying up such as some saved art file pictures suitable for card-making.
Replaced broken back light with a spare.
Updated frugal-type diary.
2) The above suggests time was used constructively but in retrospective, health matters still badly influence this.

Hi mavvymoo,

My tasks from today until the end of Saturday are:-

1) Do more unfinished jobs from last week!
2) "Stress" management.

1) These jobs were based upon several notes on the floor acting as reminders. There were several tasks:-

a) Household - look for stored spare bedside light, finishing curtain laundry and drying in the sun, plus putting things away.
b) Food related - Working out grocery expenditure, whether to order or shop locally, updating food stock record, sort out money off coupons, checking recipes using milk powder and a small amount of stockpiling in case of emergencies.
c) Appointments - one completed and three to attend. One bill paid and two more expensive ones to come. (So this affected b).
d) Outdoors - Dry out saved vegetable seeds and note local source of free wildflowers.

2) Stress management - Not so easy. Did read about this area but find doing "nice" things is the current answer.

Hi,

Late this week with my list which started last Sunday. Just broadly focussing upon doing "nice" things involving plants and animals; seeing where money saving fits in.

Good luck any list-makers.

Hi Dannie
Glad to see you are still plodding on and winning by the looks of it :T

Funny week this week with the Bank holiday it always puts me out.

Loads done in the garden and if I say so myself it looks really good

I have had a bit of a declutter and sold a fair bit on Eb*y and F*cebook so going ok in that direction
Will update with a new list on Monday as I am trying to cram 5 days into 4 this week
Good luck
