The Sick that Keeps On Giving

I’m not sure what the heck is going on, but the ill that followed me last week and then seemingly disappeared has come back with a vengeance. I’m starting to wonder if it’s less the sick and more the poor eating, even worse sleeping, and horrendous caffeine intake that’s keeping me down.

Actually, that’s probably a pretty fair guess.

At any rate, I don’t like to post just to say that I’m not posting, but I promised my husband I would come home and rest, so rest I will. Next year, I will have posts ready further in advance for just such an occasion as this. Please forgive me!

Delayed Gratification

I’ve been really good at posting every morning at least by 8 a.m. – last night though I went to bed early to deal with this sick that’s creeping up on me, so this is the post for today. Sorry! Maybe I can make it up later.

Accomplishment Nation

milkIt was a very small step tonight, but instead of playing Pogo games for three hours, I actually did stuff.

Go me!

I have decided to give Remember the Milk another go. My thought was that with the recurring task availability I can set up my weekly to-do’s and toss in the unexpected as it occurs to me at work. Don’t get it all done? Not the end of the world. I hope.

Do I pay for the premier version? Not yet. But I am loving the integration with Gmail. I’m not quite sure how I got that working, but it’s there in all its glory, right next to my messages. Ah, Gmail love.

What I accomplished tonight was small, but after what seems like a very long time not actually doing anything, it still feels pretty good. I just made one small list and whipped up the first part of a Christmas gift that will involve at least three more steps before completion. There are still a million things to be done, and a lot of them have to happen before the new year starts. But small steps, Ellie, small steps. Right?

*sigh* I hate to say it, but I feel icky. Miss Nick has got to sign off.
