To Do List

Source

In my efforts to regain my balance and once again have a life outside of that swear-word called a career, I have found myself committing to a lot more than my work deadlines.

I am enjoying the way it is challenging me and I am enjoying the variety of projects on the go. My only problem is that I fear I am taking on too much. I don't want this to become another stress factor for me, I just wish I had more hours in a day!

1. Post a photo a day for Project 365
2. Read more blogs and comment
3. Service my car
4. Have my wheels re-aligned
5. Change my medical aid plan
6. Finish Photoshop project for Special K
7. Post my postcard
8. Collect prize in Sandton (during office hours only)
9. Finish Christmas shopping
10. Make DIY Christmas crackers
11. Print gift tags
12. Sell my sister-in-law's wedding dress
13. Find a good tour package for Ireland
14. Book air tickets to the UK
15. Choose between the 2 hotel bookings I made before I forget to cancel and I am billed
16. Get back to the gym
17. Fix the silicone sealant in the bathroom and kitchen
18. Buy a pot for the plant so that it stops falling over when the wind blows

Phew!! Busy bee!

What is on your To Do List?

Stuff, stuff, stuff!!

I have always been a hoarder (no not a whore) and I love collecting pretty things & keeping them.

Well I used to anyway - these days I move so often that it really just becomes too much effort. In my frustration of trying to cram everything into my tiny apartment, I gave a leather jacket away to the lady who cleaned my bathroom.
It was a brown suede jacket I bought myself for my 21st birthday and it was in perfect condition - so much for sentimentality hey?

I find as I get older - I am 29 32 tomorrow and I am working harder than ever and really wondering if I can go on like this for much longer.

I miss my friends and family - while I am at work, their lives are going on along without me and I dont even have the time to pluck my eyebrows, let alone call my friends.

My Blackberry is in for repairs (the T button stopped working and you have no idea how many words I use that require the T button!)
What I loved about Blackberry is that it makes social interaction so much easier for me.
I can Facebook them to see how they are doing, they chat on our BB Group so even if I dont answer, I can read their conversations on the toilet when I get home!

My brothers wedding plans are so much harder now that I dont have email at my fingertips.

I haven't read any of your blogs and I am having withdrawals! My aim this morning is to post this and have a BIG catch up.

Anyway - I am digressing....

I found these gorgeous postcards which I bought on my trip to New York in 1998. They are so gorgeous & yet they sit in my drawer, never being used.

So, I think they deserve better than this - send me your postal address & I would love to drop you a line or 2 & pop it in the mail - I have always loved handwritten notes & receiving them - & this is something I would love to do.

At least I know my cards would go to a good home! ;-)
