Anyone? If you do, How about we motivate eachother. Write a short list of the things you need to do, now don't overwhelm yourself, only list things that are reasonable, and then as you finish them, you can edit your post and mark them as done. Thsi way, if we don't do them, we all know how lazy we must have been (or too busy at the computer, lol)

Heres my list:

Finish the dishes sitting in my kitchen
Pick up the sewing room floor
Sweep kitchen floor
Sweep sewing room rug (vaccuum is upstairs, and I am so not going to get it)
Fold/ Put away laundry


There, now I think I can do that if I push... and if DS doesn't undo it as I work. Anyone else??


ETA at 1:38 : This is apparently not working for me... I have foiund lists of other jusnk to do, but have not touched myh list! Bad me!!

ETA at 6:30: Well, its official, I got nothing at all off my list done. I did however, get the mortgage paid, pay my one and only ever speeding ticket, and take a long walk with DS...

My motivation is so distracted these days. Let's see what have I done today? I jogged/walked for 30 minutes. Made lunch. Picked up a few toys. Put DD down for her nap. Declared tonight leftover night! That's it!!! Oh well. There's always tomorrow, right?

well, I had these lofty plans for all I was going to get done while my DS when off to preschool this morning, but alas, he woke up with a runny nose, so no three hours at my disposal.
Instead we're listening to Steel Pulse and dancing......
Once I get going I will hopefully:
1) Clean kitchen
2) Do 2 loads of laundry
3) Clean the bedroom

I cleaned yesterday. Only motivated though by the fact my grandmother is coming for dinner tonight LOL

I have 4 loads of laundry that are clean that need to be folded. If I can get that done I'll be happy. And a bit of grocery shopping for dinner.

I can't even get motivated enough to write the list!
What's worse is that DS is at Nana's so I have no excuse.
That nap idea sounds good though...

So, yesterday I managed to make the stew, do some sweeping, and put clothes into the dryer...I SUFFERED from not taking that nap, though.
Today I will :
nap
go to the grocery store
and maybe hit the mirrors in one bathroom :lol

i need to vacuum, but that seems impossible at the moment!
