Busy doing nothing

Well...the opposite really!

I'm getting quite good at this "not working too hard, but getting stuff done" lark.

I also decided this morning to get back to writing "to-do" lists...well, one long list!

I was determined not to put myself under pressure, but, at the same time, I had a fair bit to get done today, so I thought a list was the best plan. Now, I have to say that by about one o'clock I had only managed to get one thing done....this is where the "not working too hard" bit comes in! I had, of course, had a coffee break and a wee read of my new magazine, spoken to Mam and Kirsty on skype and checked my e-mails (as you do). But, I did not panic. I did not berate myself. And, most importantly, I didn't give up!

By two o'clock I had more than half the stuff on my list accomplished, and had reminded myself that I had the whole afternoon to get the rest done!

So, on the whole, a good day, I feel. I am thankful to have achieved very nearly all I set out to do today, without stressing about it!

To-do lists rock!!

Gratefully yours.
