Out the window....


I never learn!!  Any attempt to make a schedule (and accomplish it) in this house is just a waste of brain cells.  I had such grand plans for today.  I had a plan, a carefully orchestrated schedule of tasks.

Guess what?  I got virtually zilch, nada, zippo, nothin done.   Arrrgh   I know better yet occasionally I get delusions of grandeur that I can defy the odds.  Haaaaa

Is my tree up?    Nope.  My tree helper went missing-in-action today
Did I draw out the Merry Christmas rug?   Nope
Did I start hooking the Merry Christmas rug?   Obviously nope
Did any of the carpets get shampooed?   Ahh, NOPE
Any baking, shopping, wrapping.......NOOOO

I did however get 2 small reports done for work.  Not the most fun or holiday-productive but income dependent so that was good.   I also did multiple errands for others.  Note: not for me (sigh)

So since the day was not remotely fun, I decided to do something else tonight that is not fun......binding a couple of small rugs.  I wish I could learn to love (or even like) this task.  

Here's hoping Monday is a cheerier, more productive day.

    Well I hope it is a nice day tomorrow. So funny that your helper went missing.
    You will get to the other things I am sure of it. :)

    Kim, that was a long list of planned tasks. I have days like that when things don't go as planned and I try like a fool to catch up and I almost make myself sick.

    I hope that you're not trying to punish yourself for not getting things done as planned. At least, your rugs will be bounded.
    Hope tomorrow will go as planned.
    HUgs,

    I feel rather unproductive as well....got one thing done that took a loooong time, so I suppose I should feel good about that. Happy productivity wishes to you!

    Ah, we all have days like that - don't be too hard on yourself! Christmas has a way of driving us all crazy - and then it's wonderful all at the same time. Sometimes it's hard to choose whether you love it or hate it.

    Hope you were able to get more done yesterday. I understand completely. My day yesterday was spent running errands for others. xo Laura
