Ticked Off The Saturday To-Do List

August 20th, 2016 at 09:45 am

I haven't really bothered with to-do lists lately but the other night I was watching a tv show where they had a to-do list and thought I may reincorporate that into my weekend (weekdays are a bit harder for me).

Today's to-do list was:

- Body Balance class (I did this and this class is always so great, it's a combination of pilates and yoga with meditation at the end; I always come out with a smile on my face)
- Washing (we are set to get rain for the next week, have already had a large amount yesterday so this task was completed early on in the day so hopefully things dry in time)
- Folding clothes (got last week's washing folded, nothing sitting around in baskets for once)
- Cleaning (spent 45 minutes cleaning bathrooms, tidying up through the house and dusting. It's a necessary evil!)
- Organising the desk in the study (it's been pretty abominable so last night I bought two in-trays after work, one for filing and one for things to deal with; organising and throwing out documents no longer required took 45 minutes; the desk looks oh so much better!!! It's organised and I am so glad I accomplished this task)

All in all, it's been a pretty good Saturday, I feel like I've been productive. I wanted to go somewhere tomorrow and do something cheap and fun, maybe a drive and have lunch somewhere not too flashy but B has come down with the flu so that is out the window.

I bought an iTunes card for us to watch movies and decided I wanted to buy a CD for my phone so I guess this is my fun thing for the weekend! And baking and cooking various things tomorrow!

Well, must go cook our dinner - indian butter chicken and rice with garlic naan bread Smile.

    I hope you find creating a daily 'To Do'' list worthwhile. We were encouraged to do these in middle school and I find it's an effective habit. It didn't work so well on computer but I find it very beneficial since re-instituting my old, hand written A5 journal. There seems to be something special about actually writing it down, makes it a commitment to get the task done. There I don't allow more than 5 items daily along with daily routine.

    I'm a fan of the to-do list, too! On paper. Really helps me to formulate my day in the morning.

    I've been addicted to to-do lists for years. Maybe it's a Type A thing, I don't know.

    I like your new color scheme.

    Snafu- I used to always do weekend to-do lists, and like you I limit it to 5 items. For me it's realistic, I'm more likely to accomplish all items.
    CB- I actually use the reminder app in my mobile phone, you are right it does help formulate the day.
    PatientSaver- thank you.
    Scottish Girl- dinner was lovely, thank you.
