5 Minute Challenge/To-do List
Anyone want to join? I'm wasting away a lovely day at home when I should be getting things done. You can either set a timer for 5 minutes, or make a to-do list to get done. I only have three hours to work with so I will try to keep my list manageable:
-quick walk through of the house, tidying, collecting laundry and collecting garbage -start laundry -get folded piles ready for kids to put away -1 hour spent doing paperwork (can be divided time) -top bottom wash of the kitchen -eat a sit-down lunch optional if time allows... -ironing Help! I'm drowning in procrastination!

Re: 5 Minute Challenge/To-do List
You can do it!
I'm trying to get myself out of a funk today, so I've been straightening room by room, dusting, washing towels, making soup for lunch, and working on children's ministry lessons today. I also need to proofread ds's application for an architect camp. Not sure what else I will accomplish today, but I do need to focus on school at some point.

Re: 5 Minute Challenge/To-do List
Thanks for the encouragement, Charla. I just spent 30 minutes doing paperwork.
I'm cheering you on, too!

Re: 5 Minute Challenge/To-do List
Uh-oh....I'm starting to procrastinate again. Today I just need to move slow and steady with the household stuff. I am going to see what I can get done during one load of laundry washing. After the laundry goes into the dryer I am going to head out to the art studio because I have some tidying to do before I teach at 12:30.
My goal. To stay off of all sites/devices until I check in after flipping the laundry. Also, no eating until I check in. Eating seems to be another way for me to procrastinate.

Re: 5 Minute Challenge/To-do List
Today, I'd like to get a bunch more stuff done. It really does help with my mood. I was able to get the children's ministry lesson done yesterday, but I might work ahead today on that. So far today, I've folded and put away the towels from yesterday's laundry, sorted and started the clothes laundry, washed dishes, started the dishwasher and wiped down the kitchen counters and table.
My list for today:
It's so hard not to procrastinate. I'm right there with you. Save
Save Save Save Save Save Save
