I bought a can of paint to paint the bathroom 3 years ago, every summer and every spring break I put it on my list, but I am a massive procrastinator.

I have a similar one in my head, but the top three things I need to do are:<br />1- organize my sewing room so that I can actually walk around and through it!<br />2 - get rid of fabric I will never use (What?) <br />3- finish all my unfinished quilts roughly 6-8 big quilts - especially my son's wedding quilt. The top was finished the year he was married. He's been married now for 6 years!<br />:-O<br />I retired in 2014 so there is NO excuse now for not having enough time. :-)<br />Ginny<br />(From CT)Ginnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15968206480475266687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6514394646355489375.post-81317814976168128492016-01-28T23:32:45.294-08:002016-01-28T23:32:45.294-08:00I too am wondering where January went, and I haven...I too am wondering where January went, and I haven't even started reviving my French or learning to do more with my camera.

Instead I just make weekly goals, small goals, and try to get some of them done so I don't have to write 'see last week' too often. I'm trying to just make my peace with the fact that I'm SO SLOW these days, not helped at all by having brought home a new puppy this last summer while also taking care of my very old Old English Sheepdogs...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17719297443535549397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6514394646355489375.post-16029019283324356172016-01-28T08:32:40.732-08:002016-01-28T08:32:40.732-08:00I agree with Stephie about tearing the list into l...I agree with Stephie about tearing the list into little bits and picking one per day.

It came to about 8 sides of A4. She practically fell over and said, "no I meant 3 little things" - not even 3 pages?!?!?! Whaaaat?!! And that was just the things I HAD to do, hadn't even given a thought to what I wanted to do - and nothing's bloody changed :D I reckon we should tear our lists up into individual bits, stick them in a bowl and swish them around then just pull one out and go for it!
