There is so much that went undone. Cleaning my desk, for example. I did gather up the loose receipts, and started to go through the paper pile, resulting in another small paper pile on the floor. I think maybe a dozen sheets ended up shredded or thrown into the recycle bin. Twelve down, a couple hundred to go.
I am way behind in book reviews for work. My goal was to get ten of them done (most of the subjects are picture books). I got four completed--yesterday.
Passport photos--haven't gotten them yet. Though I did research how to get passports. Of course, my paperwork is complicated by the military brat/ foreign-born thing.
Book fair financial form--not done. Getting the photos back on the mantel, which has been bare (except for Bionicle LEGOs) since the Nativity set came down after Epiphany--not done. I did swap out the winter painting over the mantel for the spring one--yesterday. But the red LED candles from Valentine's Day are still flickering each night...where did I put the green ones that should be there instead?
It's a good thing I love my job, and look forward to going back tomorrow (even if I'm not excited about the early wakeup). I feel so much more accomplished at work!
Not done echoes, but I bet you needed the time to recharge and relax. There's plenty of time to tackle that list.
ReplyDeleteYep, there was a bit of that, too, Lee Ann--thank goodness!
DeleteI always begin my breaks with a long list of things that "have" to get done, only to find that by the end, many are still undone. I think that's a part of life. But Lee Ann is right, you needed the time to rest and recharge so it sounds like you had the perfect spring break!
ReplyDeleteGlad to know I'm not alone in that habit, Jennifer! I think I'll try to squeeze in one more nap today. :-)
DeleteI can completely relate to this! And this is why I actually stopped making lists - they just depressed me with all the things I had to do! :) Sounds like your time was well spent, though, on just recharging - I think we sometimes underestimate how important that really is!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Tricia--I certainly do feel a bit more relaxed and rested. I'm a chronic list maker, though, and just found the list I wrote up at the beginning of the week. There are at least three must-do's to be completed before bedtime--sigh.
