Latest To-Do List

I've been sick this past week and slowly getting better but now it's time to play catch up on things I need to get done. I was very unproductive last week only getting out of bed to go to work. And went to the doc Thursday and was in bed from then pretty much until today sick.


Tonight at work I had to ask if it was Monday because we normally get off between 10 and 11 (usually right around 1030) but tonight we were walking out the door before 915. For a little while I was wondering if I had slept through Monday.


Side note: I was let go from one of my two part time jobs (the that was suppose to go permanent after my 90 days with the temp company) but one of their contract liners filed bankruptcy so out went mine and several other positions. I have enough money in the bank to make it a few weeks but I need to find something soon. I'm looking not only in Mobile but in other areas as well.


So my to do list for tonight, tomorrow and Wednesday....

- Write check to Carrie for the power bill Yes I already did this one but it was on my list I started making in my head ;-)

- Check jobs that Angie sent to me

- Check on jobs Aunt Linda messaged me about (Yea, I know this might sound funny but if I don't remind myself to check them I might completely forget)

- Fill out form to order copy of birth certificate

- Balance Check book

- Write check for JC Penny's card

- Check PO Box

- Mail: - Forms for birth certificate
- Check to BJ (no I'm not sending him money it's a check that was mailed to me instead of him)
- Utility Bills to Lauren
- JC Penny's bill

- Eat free lunch at Chick-fil-a

- Pay Victoria Secret bill @ store

- Print several copies of resume (tried using my sisters printer with my computer but they are not being friends) will probably do this at the library

- Renew books from library

- Return cable boxes to Comcast

- Massage appointment Wednesday at 10 AM

- Cancel Massage place membership :-( I'm kinda sad about this but with loss of income goes unneeded expenses.

- Move pictures from computer to external hard drive

- Clean out fridge (This makes my fridge sound nasty but it's really not... Another joy of this condo... I think the ice maker leaks water so we have a nice frozen puddle in the freezer, half frozen puddles on the top shelf of the fridge and water sitting on some of the shelves and in the bottom)

- Pay health insurance

- Move photos and video off Iphone (I have a ton of pictures from Disney and what not on my phone and I need to move them so I don't lose them)

- Post recipes on Clegg's Kitchen

- Look for ornament ideas for the Clarcko ornament exchange (Yes, I know Christmas is in December but the Clarcko reunion is the last week in July so I need to get my creative side going)

- Look more for jobs.... This is a no fun process!!!!

- Apply to LOTS of JOBS

- Go to Clark Personnel w/ resume to get in their system for a job

- Get in contact with Columbia Southern University about financial aid (I've been trying for the last week and can't get anyone)

- Update 101 blog

- List old wheels from car on craigslist

- Take all 10 days worth of my huge horse pill size antibiotic pills (Not at once of course)

- Unpack boxes of shoes (Put in closet or get together to go to yard sale)

- Bring yard sale stuff to Wattier's for their fundraiser yard sale

This may or may not seem like alot (Or just a crazy list to you) but its what I'll be doing over the next couple of days. And it makes me accountable to actually get the things on the list done!

I'll try to update you on the progress but knowing me for every one thing I cross off my list I will have 2 or 3 more things to put on the list.

to do list

I'm a big fan of to do list.. Or list in general. I make them for everything!


Current to do list is in the making..


Is it sad that I put things like...


-Check Post Office

-Change Light Bulb in bathroom

-Return stuff to library

-Hook up Internet


... on my list. These are only a few things... Things I should remember to do anyways but I'm putting on the list for a couple of reasons.


Main thing, sense of accomplishment. Well maybe not the main reason.


Somethings I put on my list cause I forgot. The light bulb for instance, I noticed it the other day (more like a week and a half ago) when I was blow drying my hair. One of the lights somehow had separated the glass part from the part the screws into the light socket and is only hanging my a thread (quite literally). But I finished blow drying my hair got ready for work and didn't think again about the light bulb cause the other lights still work and its not like I'm going into a dark bathroom as a reminder.


Back to the sense of accomplishment, there is something about the magical line through the things on your list that lets you know that you have completed something! That even if its a small thing or big thing you can look back and know how you filled your day.


So... What's on your lists?
