It is a weird holiday here, too, Kathryn, especially for those of us who were "on vacation" last week in Vegas and came home on Saturday evening late. We had a good, enjoyable trip, a very nice fancy dinner out for Valentine's day, and saw a show. Aside from that we gambled very little (I have trouble playing with money, I put $30 in a slot machine and that was it.)
I emailed the article for the temple bulletin late yesterday afternoon and noted within that "Time did not allow for a review of temple board minutes" regarding the subject.
My next due date is the Pro Gen research report assignment that is due next Sunday. I've put a lot of thought and not much writing into this - I have one research report that is mostly done but I don't think it's complex enough. And I don't want to turn in something that I might later want to use in my portfolio - because if it's turned in as a Pro Gen assignment and critiqued, it can't later be used in the portfolio. So I've got a second one to use but need to get it written. I've been researching this a.m. to see if I can broaden it to identify both parents, but so far it's a no go. So I need to spend some time today getting a draft down on paper.
PODA:
Out of the house: two hours?
-visit dmom, try to get her glasses back together for now
-drugstore
-grocery
Two phone calls: 30 min max
-call vet for ddog meds, p/u later in the week
-return phone call from Friday re: drawing blood for dmom
At home:
-continue with laundry and put away bag from trip: 30 min total (two lols to fold, wash another load to hang dry, put away)
-refine goals for next 30 days, the remaining life of my B S journal and do planning for this week 30 min?
-Pro Gen assignment writing 3 hrs?
-s2s and other routines 1 hr
I think the above is 7 hours, which is more time than I have between now and time to start dinner later. I'm going to carry on. I suspect the adjustment, if any, will come from doing some of those in less time, and not writing as long.
For the record, yesterday afternoon I was able to go upstairs and work at my new desk in my office, which used to be ds' room. Ds was here later and got the second monitor going for me. It was heaven to get away from dh's tv and have a workplace. I'm still moving books up and trying to get it set up, but it's wonderful.
Whoops, just remembered that dfriend M had inquired about going to the gym together today. May have to do that tomorrow, or rethink the above. I obviously need to get an earlier start on the day. And dd wants to use my car for awhile, so I need to get busy on the home stuff and do the out of house stuff later.
Now:
-s2s
-make the bed
-two phone calls (suspect I'll have to leave message re: dmom)
-walk the dog
-start lol
