Challenge Task #2

Posted by Maggie Tue, 04 Dec 2007 16:53:00 GMT

So I’ve done my morning routine and am now ready to start thinking about day #2’s planning task. Crystal wants us to make a to do list of no more than 10 items and work 10 minutes in our living rooms. So here’s my list:

  1. Finish the girls’ laundry, including diapers
  2. Order more cloth diapers This took a long time, it took me a while to find a supplier that had all the diapers I wanted in stock, oh well it’s done, and in a week or so we’ll be able to use cloth diapers all the time.
  3. Clean entry way (yesterday’s challenge)
  4. Clean living room (today’s challenge)
  5. Nap when/if both girls are sleeping at same time, at least rest when Hannah naps
  6. Work in pantry/fridge
  7. Plan meals
  8. Grocery
  9. Take girls outside
  10. Make list for thank yous, write them
  11. Drink lots of water (I haven’t been doing great at this and know it effects my energy levels) I didn’t start out well with this, but did do better in the afternoon

I’ll be crossing the items off as I do them, so check back to see how far I get, I’m not counting on getting to all of it, but if I have the time and energy, I’ll need a plan.

    Your list made me tired just looking at it ;-) Make sure you're resting too. You've got a brand new baby, plus another little one. (I say these things cause I love ya!) Usually all I can think about at your stage is SLEEP!

    I like making lists too. I think they help me get more done than if I hadn't made the list. I also love the sense of accomplishment as I mark things off my list-I see how much I get done when I do this. Thanks for sharing.

    Steph-it made me tired too and I didn't even get 1/2 of it done! Resting was much higher priority today, John should come home to a wife who can be awake for more than 20 minutes when he comes home, as well as a haven...even if that means the haven is a little messy. :) April-I think that's the key to lists, it helps you get more done than you would've even if you only get a couple of things on the list done.
