Now is the time
Jan. 12th, 2012 08:31 amto try and cram in the activities I had planned for my holiday. I go back to work in 5 days. I have 4 days to complete the following;
complete the christmas process without embarrassing myself due to a lack of appropriate gifts - this includes at least 3 sewing projects by Sunday. mostly. It's over now and I can't do anything about it, although I still have to finish the buttonholes on one gift.
finish knitting my cardy
make the dress that in my head goes with the cardy
finish the dress that was in my head last summer
finish the other two sewing ufo's hanging over my head
Nope! No sewing done yet - looking unlikely, see kitchen note below.
build a back fence and gate
draw the renovation that I've been drawing for 6 years
Today I decide if the back fence gets done or I do something else.
lie on the couch reading or watching television for 3 days in a row I may have done more than 3 days of this...
go shopping for new work clothes
mend work clothes
buy a new fridge
spend a couple of days hanging out with friends
a couple of easy ones so that I would have stuff to cross off. Although the new fridge prompted me to decide to pull apart the kitchen and re-surface the floor. That's been made harder by the moral collapse yesterday, but it should be finished today - as soon as I buy more paint, wait for people to have breakfast and showers and close the kitchen for the day.
pull apart Rose's room and put it back together
This may be easier to do as MsNotaGoth is nagging for it, so the amplifier collection can get out of her room and into her sister's.
and some other stuff
I started using asana these holidays. It's been good to just keep adding projects and then reviewing and moving the from the "today" or "upcoming" lists to the "later" list. It removes the guilt of not doing them, but keeps them as possibilities for my future. Based on the asana list and my calendar, here's how I'm going to spend the next 4 days;
finish kitchen
do work thing that's due on Monday but I didn't finish before christmas
work on Jumper
See Sherlock Holmes 1
See Sherlock Holmes 2
attend conference thingy for morning
attend birthday gathering in arvo
clean my bedroom
sort finances, and book keeping process
review back gate project for feasibility and planning
update tent blog
Let me see... what can I do while I lie here in bed...?
