I haven’t posted on here as the past week, but I’ve been successfully writing out my lists and crossing them off one by one.

Last week I:
Paid some of Nicholas’ medical bills
Drank my water intake goal all but one day
Made some sentences out of Nicholas’ known sight words and a couple he misses some times for him to start learning to read
Got lots of laundry done
Worked on my book

This week so far I:
Took the clothes out of Nicholas’ closet that are too small for him and sorted them
Started a piece of art for another forum member
Have made half of my water intake goal for yesterday

Today:
Nicholas’ medical appointments (0/2)
Put laundry away
Work on or finish art piece
I want to put work on book, but that feels a little too ambitious, according to my cramps. I’ll be driving around a lot to today, so that’s fine.

It’s so inspiring to see everyone working so hard to accomplish their productivity goals! Keep it up! 🥳🥰
 
January 23, 2024

  • Finish slides for tomorrow's meeting
  • Complete task list spreadsheet & submit to my manager
  • Look for gift ideas for my friend
  • Look for gift ideas for my family friend
  • Read 30 pages of the book I recently started (20/30)

I want to put work on book, but that feels a little too ambitious, according to my cramps. I’ll be driving around a lot today, so that’s fine.

Also drank half my water goal yesterday.

Today (1/24):
Put laundry away (0/3)
Work on or finish art piece
Drink water goal (0/4 pints)

I need to get so much more done, but still crampy, so I’m not going to push it. If I get those done today, it’s a win.

I rarely used this thread because some of the stuff I have on my to-do list are a bit more advanced than say doing my laundry.

But we'll see how long it takes for me to check this off lol.

1. Add lights in basement and crawlspace to existing circuit
2. Redo plumbing
3. Sand and repaint cinderblock walls (and this time hopefully find some better stuff that actually lasts)
 
1/24 results:
Put laundry away (3/3) ✅
Work on or finish art piece ✅
Drink water goal (2/4 pints) ❌

1/25:
Drink water goal (0/4 pints)
Draw options for Valentine’s Day pop-up shop
Feels like there’s something else that I’m missing…
 
I've had quite a productive day today:

My goal for the week was to reach 2500 words on my thesis, and I'm currently sat at around 2400 (most of which was written today)

I have also:

- left the house (it's the little wins...)
- dropped a parcel off
- cleaned the dishes
- emptied the bin
- emptied the cat litter tray

and my goals for the rest of the night are:

- make dinner
- read 100 pages of my book
 
I had a productive day today and it's still early. I ended up washing my bedsheets again, and I vacuumed the living room. I also cleaned up some of the trash that was around.

Yesterday wasn't as productive as I hoped. I received some news I'd been waiting on for a while and it sort of killed my motivation to get things done. Instead I went for a nap. 😂

Going to take things easy today.

No goals today other than to drink my water goal of 4 pints.

Nicholas was sick last night and went to urgent care, so my focus is on him more so than usual today.
