Thank you for reading about my crazy 'weekly organise' plans. I'm hoping this will be more realistic, but we'll see.
Please leave a comment and let me know -
What are your plans for the week - boring or fun bits?
What made you happy last week?
What are you looking forward to this week?
Have a good week whatever you do.

I'm impressed and inspired by your organized list! My week is mainly trying to recover from a cold/virus/flu which morphed into bronchitis. And some crochet and some reading. LOL! Watching my DIL clean our attic made me happy. I'm looking forward to my 2 grandson's birthdays this week! ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
ReplyDeleteArh bless you Teresa, I hope you feel better soon. Teen 1 is still struggling to shake off his virus, not good. Enjoy your reading and crochet as you recover. I'm not sure that I'd like people sorting out my loft but it's making you happy, so that's got to be good. All the best with the birthday celebrations, Cx
ReplyDeleteThat is an impressive list. Things are very relaxed here, taking time to rest and reflect over the past couple of weeks.
ReplyDeleteI'm now off for 4 days so I hope to do some relaxing too. I didn't go to film night, have finished the washcloth and finish listening to the audiobook. Have a good week, Cx
DeleteI hope your diet issues are resolved by now. Good luck with your week :-) Remember, it is ok to break your own routine rules when it gets too much!
ReplyDeleteI am bracing myself for a long day at work tomorrow, 9:00 to 8:30 with a 90 minute break. Not my normal kind of day thankfully. I am looking forward to the long weekend and thinking about my weekend away in Copenhagen makes me happy. xx
Thanks Christina, I often miss jobs due to feeling washed out or needing a break. Dusting is always the first to go and as for the ironing pile... well I have 2 of them. I hope you are surviving your heavy workload / full days. Have a nice weekend away in Copenhagen. Cx
DeleteSounds like a great weekly plan. Hope you are feeling better. Congrats on having another driver in the house! My oldest teen is signed up for Driver's Education in June. Probably ought to share that news with him soon ;) Hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jean. I've scaled my list back a bit. I think I'll have to alter it next week as the dusting is still low priority when things go crazy. Cx
DeleteThat sounds doable, though I feel as though I'm under pressure when faced with a list like this so there are some jobs which I have set days for but so long as I do something each day, I'm quite relaxed about cleaning. Congratulations to Teen 1.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo, Yes I know what you mean but with working, shopping and some days feeling rubbish, I'm aware I need to spread jobs out so it's not too much each day. When the boys were small and I didn't work, I'd - do as much as I could - on Monday mornings. The rest of the week I just pottered eg, if something needed doing again then I'd do it, if I could. Cx
DeleteWell done to teen 1. Nothing like gaining that bit of independence. I'm very much a list person but I'm not so good at the meal planning.

Hi Mitzi, thanks for commenting. The meal planning a friend showed me, on a 2 week plan, I listed an evening dinner each day and then wrote my shopping list. My Nan always did a weeks plan too. Another friend of mine wrote out a list of everything she's happy to cook and then slotted things into her weeks plan. I usually hand the family a cookbook - that I'll be doing the cookery calendar challenge from and ask them all to choose 2 recipes each. I decide which recipes are slotted into the plan. All the best Cx
DeleteWow that does sound like a busy week!
ReplyDeleteLook at you go! I hope you have a lovely Easter!
