Might As Well Be Summer

We’re wet-headed, sunburned, and sleepy.

LOVE IT!!!

Today was a glimpse of the coming summer. 8:30 a.m. – Kindergarten awards. 9:00 a.m. – 2nd grade picnic. Noon – spontaneous idea to go swim with friends.

So much fun. No schedule. No tasks completed other than the pre-7 a.m. ones – making bed and emptying dishwasher.

If you want to read a post where I accomplished something, scroll on down, because this isn’t it.

46shares 46 0 0 I love a clutter-free purse. Not that I have one. Sometimes, if my house looks nice for a fleeting moment, I think, “What will I blog about if I really do get my home under control someday?” But then, my mind starts filling with the many other areas where clutter reigns. […]

Daily Checklist, Jelly Legs, and More Thoughts on Finishing

May 26, 2010 By Dana White 4 Comments

1share 1 0 0Today I cleaned bathrooms. Cleaned ’em good. That’s the good news. The bad news is that for the most part, I went against what I’m supposed to do and let the big stuff be more important than the little stuff. I did: Make bed. Empty dishwasher. Wash the bigger dishes left from […]

Daily Checklist – Finishing Stuff

May 25, 2010 By Dana White 10 Comments

2shares 1 0 1I have issues with finishing stuff.  For some reason, it’s that last little step that trips me up.  I heard Dr. Phil explain years ago that some people are that way because they want to avoid criticism.  If they don’t finish, no one can criticize how they did because they aren’t actually […]
