That sounds pretty good Kat! Do hope you got it all done
Wow you’ve got a full day. Here we have schooling, mailing packages, making granola, doing laundry, more schooling, nursing the babe, tidying the house, making meals, swimming lessons, working on crochet project, putting groceries away, lots of snuggles with the kids, making supper, bathing children, bedtime, and then finally collapsing.
That sure does sound like a lot :0)
That should keep you busy for awhile!
Mine:
Laundry
Write paper 1 conclusion
Write paper 2 abstract
Make sure SO calls bank
Book Wednesday afternoon off

Well I hope you enjoyed your shorter list!
Wow, that sure is a lot!! Good Luck!!
I did not get it all done!
oops, forgot to say on my list is
1. Cleaning my bathroom
2. Buying groceries
Well those 2 sound good!
So I see you’re not doing much of anything today huh?
LOL!!! That’s quite the list… I tend to write down the ‘basics’… my entire ‘to do’ list would be as daunting as yours i’m afraid!
http://www.halfdozendaily.wordpress.com
lol yes, it is somewhat daunting isn’t it?
That is a very large list. Hope it is going well.
Not too well this week, but they’re is always next week!
Phew – I am exhausted just resting my eyes on that little lot.
I have huge amounts to do….but all I want to do is go and read Eclipse
lol hope you got your wish! For a moment there I thought you meant go and watch the eclipse!
How good it’ll feel to get most of it done though! You definitely had a lot to accomplish. There are always things that I want to do but today was one of those days were I was just open to whatever came up. So I started dinner in the crock pot and made this week’s bread. Put the mail out and went for a run….and then responded to a text that ended up in walking each of the dogs individually. So now I’m showered, feet up, and snoozing dogs on my side!
lol well where you ended up sounds very nice
It’s so touch when you are qualified for a job but can’t get it isn’t it. My daughter has finished her Uni course, accounting, and despite the fact that she has to apply for 10 jobs a fortnight she still hasn’t got anything. Grrr. Patience sure is a virtue. Cherrie
Hope your daughter finds something soon Cherrie!
Well I just had the usual stuff to do here while at mom’s…Open blinds, help mom with her toilet/change/wash, make breakfast and serve her, do the dishes, prepare the laundry for today’s helper, have some coffee, watch the Christian programs, make lunch, do the dishes, telephone the medical supply place, have a long nap, talk, watch the Olympic programming, make dinner, make dessert, do dishes, look for seam ripper, open seams on mom’s nightgown and dress for extensions. I am very tired today so I haven’t done much outside of the things that really need doing. Hopefully my energy picks up this week as I have much to do before I return home. Glad you’re making much progress on your “to dos”.
Do hope your mum is okay Joyful!

Are you watching Gilmore Girls? Me too, I’m sitting down to watch it right now, have got into the habit of watching it every day…I’m looking for a job too, it can be so slow and frustrating. And I totally empathise with the downshifting thing/trying to get HR people to understand…
