FunnyOn the subject of lists. I ran a theatre for 30 years with someone who wrote list after list of jobs to be done in the theatre. It was taken one step further in that the jobs had to be done in the order they were on the list. Just for the hell of it I would do random jobs out of order and tick them off, it always caused an amusing melt down, very funny at the time but looking back it was rather cruel of me. Mind you I still chuckle when I think of my friends reaction.
Edit.. oh yes I also did jobs that were not in the list, add them and tick them off as done, this would cause an equally outrageous melt down.
I think that yesterday l suddenly realised that if I don't get motivated soon I will really regret not taking this opportunity to get completely up to date during the lockdown.That's good Krystyna I'm still waiting for mine although did a little more yesterday that I have the previous week...I'm optimistic.
That is a really good system. You are definitely well organised and have definitely got your priorities right - first priority 'have a cuppa first '.I have three inbox trays...
One is labelled ‘To do now - immediately’
2nd is labelled ‘To do later’
3rd one is labelled ‘To do someday’
The ‘To do someday’ got bigger and is now in a cardboard box....starting with the first one, which by now a couple of months later the items will probably get relegated to the other two boxes...possibly the last box...
This has been the case since January this year....
Today is my day for tacking my ‘To do’ boxes....
Time for a cuppa first....
Little wonder you cant put on weight @SlimLizzy with the doing of lots - perhaps that's why I'm struggling to keep weight off - the doing of little - but given the choice....27-04-2020
6.Am. FBG 5.3.
Wish my body would allow a little more sleep. Don't need to be up yet. Still tired and lots to do today.
Grey skies here too, and misty, but hoping the rain holds off until the tomatoes are repotted, hedge is cut, and maybe gazebo gets a coat of paint on that panel. Forlorn hope? Possibly.
Also have alternative jobs list for indoors, when, if it does rain.
People are shaming me by all this talk of To do lists. May need to give myself a good talking to.
Bloods 5.6 this morning.
No shame in not having a To Do list. When I am working I never need a To Do list. I am really motivated to get the important stuff done as I have so little time to do it.People are shaming me by all this talk of To do lists. May need to give myself a good talking to.

Your To Do List sounds much more fun than mine.
It does not help!May need to give myself a good talking to
Self isolation, eh?. May need to give myself a good talking to.
First thing on my list. Install Zoom on my PC then test that my webcam works with it because I am doing an online course through Zoom at the end of the week.
Zoom easy to install. Tested sound - works OK.
Tested Picture. Problem - the webcam isn't working. Screen is totally black.
After 10 minutes puzzling/panicking why the webcam isn't filming - suddenly realised that I haven't taken the cover off the webcam.
Webcam now working. Oh no - the picture is really clear and shows just how untidy the office is.
Need to add a new item to the list - tidy office.
