Must get busy...Things to do today
I can't function without lists of everything I need to do, but just recently I seem to have lost control of my lists. (As I write this, I have this image in my head of all my lists defiantly marching (yes, they all have little legs in this image, I definitely need more coffee!) into the deepest darkest corners of my house to defy my attempts at organisation.) So, as it's the start of a new week and new month, I've decided that today's the day, I must grasp the nettle and reassert control ;)
Here's a few things I should begin with:
- Write list of things I need to buy to finish getting house ready before estate agent comes on Thurday (pot plants etc.).
- Write list of jobs that Lovely Lawyer Husband and I need to finish off in house before Thursday.
- Sort through huge mound of paperwork that is threatening to cascade over living room floor (extracting from it the various lists that I began and also any urgent bills to pay).
- Answer at least some of the e-mails from friends that are languishing in my Inbox (particularly those that need an urgent response because of forthcoming events).
- Go shopping for 1. (But only if delivery company FINALLY delivers new spare bed, don't get me started on this one!)
- Begin work on 2.
- Arrange redirection of mail from OUE to here.
- Begin work on some urgent forms relating to my research.
- Call or e-mail friend whose calls I've been missing all weekend.
- Do laundry. Yawn...
- Remember to buy a new diary when I next go shopping. (Why is it that I always buy an Academic Year Diary, but am taken by surprise every single time that it runs out in August not December?!)
- Go through (and why not make another list?) of things I need to discuss with and questions I must ask potential estate agents.
Okay, that's definitely enough for now...onwards and upwards!
Update: Forgot to put 'make blogroll' on list.

Yeah!!! Another list-maker. I cannot, cannot, cannot function without my list, and I know no felicity superior to crossing things off.
I find I do blog-type activities far too readily, they don't even have time to make it onto a list. lol!
I'm always surprised when the academic calendar runs out in July or August too.
