Ok, I avoided looking until now. Why, you ask? Because I want to write the perfect post, of course. You know. The side-splitting, laughter inducing sentences with a contemplative undertone.
Problem is, those just don't come out of my little (big) mouth...nor are they formed from the tiny keys overwhelmed by the pressure by my fingers. Bumm-er.
So, instead of prolific prose or giggly zingers, I'm going to make a to-do list for this week. How many of you make to-do lists? I make them, and then I realize everything I left off of them. Then I make a new one. Then I forget where I placed both of them (old-timers strikes again).
Here's my list for the weekend (that is, until Tuesday because that's when I'm actually required to wear clothing that half-way matches as I speak coherently (hahahaha) in front of 40-some college freshmen.

- Rework syllabi calendars--obviously, I thought I had no life when I planned the originals. Oh, wait. I don't. Ok, maybe I just want to sleep more.
- Grade essays. Grade essays. Grade essays.
- Wash, iron, hang, & tag clothing/toys for a kids' sale.
- Call about a couple more job opportunities (how many others can I infect with my grammar par-tic-u-larities?)
- Write some lesson plans. Yep, I actually write this stuff down before it spews out of my mouth.
- Clean the bathroom. I'm waiting on my gas mask and commercial-grade plastic suit to come in, which is a perfectly good excuse for shutting the door and ignoring what may be growing inside (ewwwwwww).
- Re-design my daughters' doll house before they redecorate the entire thing with colored markers, tiny pieces of toilet paper, and chewed-up straws. As we all know, one person's trash is my daughters' treasure.

My posts tend to be stream-of-consciousness sentences strung together with photos. Sometimes that's all I've got in me. Other times I'm just lazy.
ReplyDeleteI make lists, too. Mostly at work, but occasionally at home. Writing thank you notes and following up with a former teacher who sent me a sweet note are two things that have been on my to-do list for...ummm...months? I've promised myself I'll do it tomorrow (always).
I am a list galore person. Every morning I drink a cup of coffee and plan out my day on paper. Nothing is done around without a list. And I make a goal of no list taking more than 2 days. So if I put something down on a list and know it can't be done in 2 days it doesn't go on the list. This way I cant get disappointed. And let's face it a list that doesn't get crossed of items tends to get thrown to the side.
