Tackling My To Do List

Coming into this week, I knew that it was going to be busy and hectic. I was ready to embrace it, and get cracking.



But, Monday came, and I hit just about every snag I possibly could. And I wasn't happy about it.



Thankfully, though, I didn't let it get me down.



I wrote out my To-Do List for the week, and there were 13 things that HAD to be done before Friday evening (we are finally have my daughter's friend birthday party).



Here they are:

• Finish painting the ceiling in living room and hallway. Oh what a difference this made!
• Clean up and finish reorganizing the livng room. Move out clutter!
• Clean up Laundry Room. (When I find something that the kids have outgrown, we just put it on the dryer until we have enough to donate. Also, I have a really bad problem with folding the laundry, but just stacking it up on the rocking chair that is in there instead of putting them away.) Basically, lots of clothing clutter!
• Take donations to town.
• Put away the snowflake/snowmen towels. (I'm such a procrastinator!)
• Tidy up the front porch area. Bring out some spring decorations.
• Finances. Do check up for February, and pay the bills.
• Do taxes. (Told you I was a procrastinator!)
• Make ahead weekend breakfasts.
• Make snacks. (Granola bars, muffins, cookies)
• Make meal plan for March and grocery list.
• Plant the rest of my seeds (or as many as I can).
• Plan ahead some blog posts.

I guess some of those didn't actually have to be done by Friday, but it would make things easier. I haven't gotten all of them done just yet, but I will come back and update as I get them done. I'm hoping that today will be super productive and I can knock most of them out.

I'm hoping that with me posting this for everyone to see, that I will be more accountable and eager to attack. We'll see--because this coffee is taking forever to kick in!
