Getting Organized

Wednesday Jan 7th 2009

Took out the immigration paperwork - took a look at it and them put it aside. But only for now, it intimidates the stuffing out of me. But I did give it a read through and have scheduled some time at the weekend to get to grips with it. Feel a bit like I am slipping on my commitment to do this, maybe I will have another try tomorrow.

On a more positive note, I have decided that we need to get more organized - and I have come up with a plan, complete with to-do list, shopping list and diagram. Basically we need to have a disrobing console for when we come in through the door - keys in there places, ditto wallet and purse, headphones and bags in there slots. Change in the change jar, unimportant receipts into garbage. Mail sorted into 1. needs attention, 2. needs perusal, 3. needs the bin. Phones plugged into chargers. And relax.
Maybe I am just a Utopian fool, a hopeless dreamer wistfully longing for order in the midst of chaos. I'll let you know how it goes.

Update on goals:

Diet: Lost another half pound.
Fags and Booze: Still none.
Piano: 10mins. Latin: An Hour - whole fraking hour. Exercise: 45mins. Knitting: Up to about half a scarf now.
TV: One hour. Which, I have to say, is why I have had time to do the other stuff.
Argumentativeness: Not exactly going swimmingly.
But I did finally got around to writing my thank you cards from Christmas.
