Let's Get Motivated

Have woken up feeling rather ‘grotty’ so may not get anything much done today but will try

Managed to get two things off the list done today but not much more due to poor dog being traumatised from being neutered. Poor boy.

So I sorted the expired cheque out which tried my patience but then again it was my own fault for letting it expire. I also cleaned the living room.

Will try and get some of the other stuff done tomorrow but depends on how poor doggie is doing.

Monday’s list

Take two bags of food & clothing donations to Whitechapel Mission - DONE
Post birthday cards & competition entries - DONE
Clean fridge - DONE
Sort & list freezer contents
Write menu plan
Turn two sets of sofa cushions - DONE
Vacuum whole house

EXTRAS - Started cleaning new (to me) TV unit; visited M&S - managed to buy boots for DSis but not for me. Tried on bras - found the style I liked, worked out my size eventually :eek: but guess what, not a single bra in the style in the correct size :mad: So took down the details & will get DH to order online :T; knitting; polished the silver plated note pad hinged cover (now in CS bag)

Tomorrow I am out for lunch with two former work colleagues who became friends - one male & one female. So Tuesday’s list is the things I haven’t done + one

Go for a walk even if it's raining

Do you mind if I join your little group please? Like Highland_Fling, I’ve been accomplishing less of my lists the last few years. I’m also self employed so it’s also quite possible for me to while away the hours with little to show for it sometimes. l’ll be back with a list in a bit.

Did not manage to attack my bedroom yesterday so did that first thing this morning.

Today I have been clearing out a kitchen cupboard, innards already to be packed into a box.

My new, Vileda mop has arrived but I am putting off the pleasure of mopping floors with it until tomorrow. I can hardly bear the excitement.

The rest of the day will be knitting Christmas stockings. I promised a friend some for a Church Christmas Fair at the beginning of December so it's all systems go until then.

Lunch with male & female friend extended into evening with just my female friend - only got home half an hour ago :rotfl: So nothing done at all today :rotfl: EXCEPT posted birthday cards & letters, paid cheque into bank

I think I did pretty well today considering I mentally spaced out for a couple of hours and took a nap.

- [STRIKE]put away at least one pile of clothes[/STRIKE] - DONE

- [STRIKE]do a load of laundry[/STRIKE] - DONE

- [STRIKE]finish a spreadsheet[/STRIKE] project for Client #1 - HALF DONE. I finished one section of it and will attack more of it tomorrow.

- create and assign tasks in Client #2's project

- [STRIKE]upload assets for Client #2[/STRIKE] - DONE

- take a walk

- [STRIKE]do physio exercises[/STRIKE] - I just did them right now and holy crap, what a difference it makes. I know, I know. She would tell me all the time but each time I do them I'm reminded of how well they work, and they only take about 5 min.

- have after work drinks with a friend - Nope. I cancelled because my stomach was acting up, hence my taking a nap.

[STRIKE]- attend a webinar[/STRIKE] - DONE

BONUS STUFF:

- transfer funds in order to pay lawyer

- reset my side table clock so I can stop using my phone for an alarm. This means I won't immediately look at phone when I get up and dilly dally about in the morning.

- packed my bag/purse for tomorrow so I don't get stressed in the morning when I'm trying to leave early for a doctor's appointment

- tracked my whole day of eating in MyFitnessPal. This was great to do again because I saw I actually *was* reaching some of my goals just intuitively.

I'm going to handwrite and brain dump my list for tomorrow before heading to bed.
