Ever since my dream bubble was delayed - who knows, my dream of living near the beach may still happen - I have had very little motiviation to get much done. So, I decided to play a game with myself.
Years ago, I used to put each of my house chores on a piece of paper and put them into a big bowl. I would pick one out, set the time for 30 minutes and work on that chore. Then onto the next 30 minute chore. Well, it worked for me. I think these days there is a name for that kind of behavior: ADHD. :-)) Whatever!!
So, I have decided to incorporate that idea into a new game!! I am going to randomly pull out one of my many, many, many, many bins and containers and see what is inside. If it is a project (one or more), I have to finish one of the projects before moving onto a new bin or container . If it is a container full of fabric or patterns, etc., I will put the contents into appropriate places or leave them in that container and LABEl the container - no ADHD stuff going on here!!
This is my first try at it today ~
I cleaned out the basket on my livingroom table, put some of the projects into some empty containers and decided I was going to use up this Scrubby ball of fibers. So, while watching Mars Attacks, funny, funny irreverent movie, and a couple of HGTV episodes, I completed the ball and made 3 kitchen scrubbies!!
Hey, this idea is working! Well, at least for one day so far, but who knows . . . . ?
