Sunday Ambitions

I had big plans for today. Last night, as I thought about my Sunday I made a little mental to do list. Ok, so this list wasn't so little. I knew I wouldn't get it all done, but figured it didn't hurt to be ambitious.

Here's the list

Vacuum
Mop
Clean Bathrooms
Laundry
Clean up Shawn's shipping mess
Purge Shawn's stash of boxes
Grocery shop
Bake
work on my fingerless mittens
work on my Halloween project
Dust
Finish Halloween tutu
Get Happy Mail Package ready
Work on gift scrappy stuff
Thank you notes

I think I may have had more on the list. It's a big list, but I did pretty good. Got more than half of it done. I have to remember that I tend to spend the first few hours of my Sunday morning on the couch, doing not a lot of anything. This is something I need to do, but by the time I started my to do list today it was around noon. I wasn't sure what I would actually accomplish.

None the less, the house is clean, but not dusted. Lots of things went into the garage and the shed. There is a pile of boxes awaiting Shawn's ok to get rid of them. We have a fridge full of groceries. I used up my pile of zucchini to bake zucchini bread and I baked Nutella Crescent Rolls. I still need to wash towels, rugs and delicates. My bed needs sheets put on it. Happy mail package is ready to go and handmade thank you cards are in a neat pile by my bed ready to be written and addressed.

It's 7pm and I'm tired. Other than switching the laundry and putting sheets on my bed I plan on spending the rest of the night in front of the tv with my knitting.

Here's to a productive Sunday.

That sounds like a perfect Sunday, a little bit of to-do's, a little bit of want-to's and a lot of R&R :).

I missed my Sunday nap and spent the rest at church, a safety seminar and then sewing ...

Good thing I'm going to make up for it was 6 days of R&R starting Wednesday!

Happy Week!
