Things you need to do but never get round too

[knittedbreast]

I cant be the only one who has a list the length of arm for things i really need to do but just havent done.

today i crossed two items of that list and it feels good, i called the ctc people for a form and i emailed my old lecturer for my certificate. ooh i also emailed an organisation with a start date proposal.

and today i start my first evening working from home! yippee!

am i the only one? whats on your list?

Get an electrician to do lots of small jobs-apparantly picking up the phone is a huge job.....

How exactly are you going to cull me? I am curious :)

I should weed the front garden,

do a cobweb sweep up my incredibly high stairs,
paint my kitchen door,
and worst of all clear out under the sink ergh.

i do need to clean the oven, but im not going to. (to, too,two, who knew!)

remove those who feel the need to remind adults how they should speak, spell, pronounce whatever.

Look at how my pension is currently invested to see if changes need to be made
Reorganise dd's playroom and throw away / donate old things that are no longer played with (of course, the minute I indicate what should go, those items will suddenly become the most fascinating things dd has....)
