monday monday

geezy pete, I'm stuck today.



This is my problem with Mondays, in general. It's supposed to be my busiest day but I tell you, I feel like I have lead in my shoes (or slippers in this morning's case!) I have a whole laundry list of things to do but all I want to do is spend the morning surfing around, sipping coffee, and daydreaming. And it seems to be like this every Monday.

Now, I'm not a list maker. I'm just not. Often when I talk to my friend Debbie, listmaker, and I'm overwhelmed like I feel today she will say to me "Amy, make a list." And it always helps. So here is my list today. I will update it as I go through the day and let's see how much I get done.

-Package up all the orders
-Pay retail sales tax (late!)
-Send Michelle her package and check
-Take photos of all of the new things
-Fix up the store with new sections and add the new things
-Work on logo idea for A.
-Clean up little and big dollhouses
-Work on contribution for Club Little House
-Put together box of things to take to my little room at The Cottage
-Tidy up
-Use foodsaver to marinate, package and then freeze chicken for easy-grill dinners (I'll post about this someday soon!)
-laundry

There might be more to do so I might add to the list. Maybe this will be a good way to jumpstart my mondays. I'm certain I won't get all of this done today but we'll see how it goes. I'll strike through them as I get them done. And I'll keep going through the week.

My treats for getting a lot done today?
-Asian salad from McD's and a large coke for lunch
-Time out at 2 to watch "Keeping up Appearances"
-a little casual bike ride around the block
-A glass of that nice chardonnay and a little plate of bites when Rich gets home while we grill dinner
