Last week I decided to start making out my weekly to do lists again to see if it would help me to be more productive. I am happy to say that it did make me more productive last week. Here is how I did...
Mail Rebecca's pen pal letterExercise following the ab/squat plan that I am followingDollar Tree trip for napkins, large envelopes and gifts for Rebecca's friend's birthday party (they wanted dog toys and treats to donate to the pet shelter instead of birthday gift)Grocery store 1 time!- Post 3 book reviews (I am so far behind in posting reviews...I have 5 to do I believe to be caught up)--I posted 1.
Laundry - get caught up and stay caught upBalance checkbookHang up Bill's man cave sign that I made him for Christmas- Go through 2 totes of stuff in the basement and declutter--I went through 1 tote in the basement, but I also cleaned off and decluttered the top of the dryer
Take donations to Goodwill (I have 2 trash bags and 2 boxes of things full of stuff to donate that I have decluttered since Jan 1)Make list for grocery store and stick to it!- Read to the kids each night.--I did not do this and I really need to make this a priority
- Figure out time to go get Benjamin's blood work done--Nope, didn't even think about it.

- shred old bills and statements from 2014 that we don't need
- declutter 1 tote from the basement
- clean out downstairs bathroom cabinet
- continue to follow ab/squat challenge
- Laundry- one load at least a day, taking Sunday off
- Post 2 book reviews

Ambitious, but you got this! And congrats on last week; totally impressive given the snow days and snow-day-crazed kids to deal with. :)
