How Was My First Day of School?

Well, I guess you could say that I finished my list.  OK, I didn’t really finish it…but I did make progress in every area.  My 6 item list (and there can only be 6 items according to my self-help book) included:

gym, blog, clean house, deliver pillows, make focaccia bread and bake cookies. 

Here’s what really happened:

I was successful at going to the gym, blogging and making focaccia bread…but then trouble set in.  I had decisions to make - BIG DECISIONS, like my youngest son wants to make cookies with me and my oldest son wants banana bread.  What to do, what to do???  It’s been too hot to make cookies after school, so I guess I’m going to make banana bread.  That means I can’t officially cross cookies off the list…or can I?????  Next, I did a cursory clean of the house; meaning I spent about 15 moving “stuff” from room to room.  Is that enough to cross this off the list….maybe just cross off clean but not house.   Finally, drop off fabric to Joyce for pillows.  Well, I moved the fabric into the car but never made it to her house.  I didn’t even as much as call her to tell her I was coming.  Hmmmm.  This one’s tough.  I really need to see this one to fruition as I’ve been sitting on this project for months.  I had a plan, then I changed the plan, then I changed back to the original plan only to realize I didn’t have enough material to recover the entire set of pillows on the outdoor furniture, then I went on vacation, then I misplaced the material…  Same story - different topic!  When does it end?  It’s still in my car!

I’ll try again tomorrow with a new list!  There’s always tomorrow!
