End of the year BS
Dec. 31st, 2010 10:18 amYear ending the same as most years. Things I wanted to get done, undone. Things I expected not to happen, happened. Good intentions from 365 days ago still just that - intentions.
My biggest problem is that I think of all these things I must do/should do and then they get lost in the jumble of me little pea-brain. So I think I just need to develop the habit of writing things down WHERE I CAN FIND THEM EASILY. That's the big deal. I have notes scattered all over the house in cryptic shorthand - need to buy a little notebook that will fit in my back pocket with an equally accessible pen/pencil so as things occur to me I can jot them down. Then at the end of each day, I transfer these notes to the appropriate file/calendar so I see them when I need to.
I suppose trying to make up some sort of schedule would also help. But I don't know if it's age, habits, or just laziness that makes me not want to follow one. At least not a detailed one. Maybe just a general "This month I want to get this accomplished". Possibly then break it down to a weekly "I want to accomplish this" list.
Yeah. That could work.
Anyway... temps were in the upper 30s, low 40s the last couple days so a lot of snow melted away. Now waiting to see if the freezing rain/sleet hits this far north/west of the imaginary lines the weather people have drawn so I know if I'll get to work tonight. Yay - New Year's Eve in Walmart's Frozen Food Section!!!!
