Sticky Notes

Progressing closer to the end of the 2010 Winter Break...I'm finding it hard to come to grips with the return to 'normal' days of work, work, work. Technically, I had planned to work a couple days this break - and still will - but have put off that time until the very end. Hmmmm......I've been frustrated by H. putting off a lot of his work until this week - but it appears he comes by the procrastination trend via genetics.

We've been enjoying a nice time at home. Getting stuff done, little by little. A lot of down time which involves doing not much of anything....and that's been really nice.

One of the neat things my new computer has is a 'sticky note' program that lets you post notes on the screen. I've had a running to do list all week and have accomplished things little by little. I love the lists that help me keep track of things - big and small - that need to be done. My only regret is that once you've completed a task, you just have to delete it. I'd love to line through them or highlight them (I highlight completed items on my to-do list - I have for years. It's so fun to 'see' all the yellow or purple highlights and realize how much I've done). I just have to delete things as I finish and keep adding new things as they come up. It's also great for grocery lists, etc.

Four days remaining. Tomorrow, I'm going to attempt what has been impossible: getting up before 8AM. I need to get back in the 'groove' of going to bed earlier and getting up earlier so Monday morning won't be such a shock.

Then again.......

See you in the morning. May be 7AM. May not be.
