Task it Tuesday - Sep 8

Welcome back to Tuesday. I hope you had a nice long weekend. I spent time in the garden, cut down a couple of trees that fell during the last storm, worked on a editing project, and showed houses.

Before we look at this week's to-do list, let's see how I did last week.

  • Daily Bible reading--not as much as I should
  • Five meetings--DONE
  • Start reading Morning Star--a quarter of the way through
  • Finish reading Out of No Way for a September 9 review--DONE
  • Start fall cleaning on Saturday--not much progress, but started
  • Change outdoor decorations Sunday--not done
  • Look into getting a small dumpster--not done
  • Follow up with architect on house design--husband is doing this
  • Pray daily about a big decision--YES
So, how does that make this week look?

  • Daily Bible reading
  • Walking three days
  • Three client meetings
  • Stage a condo
  • Post review for Out of No Way
  • Continue fall cleaning
  • Change decorations
  • Keep reading Morning Star
  • Finish next chapter in editing project
  • Put donations on the front porch Saturday
  • Clean the shed roof
  • Look into getting a small dumpster

What is one task that is always part of your fall cleaning? For me, it's washing all the curtains.

Task it Tuesday - April 9

We have come back around to Tuesday again. It was a good week and I managed a few things on my list. Everything feels a bit off, though, because we haven't found a new church. Sunday used to be my favorite day of the week, but now nothing seems right. I keep praying for guidance. I'm sure it will come when the time is right.

So, what did I accomplish last week?

  • Stayed ahead of schedule with reading the Bible
  • Had a great coaching call on Thursday that left me with some new ideas
  • Finished Chapter 21 of Amelia's Mission and presented it to my writing group yesterday

The tasks I didn't get to will go back on the list for this week. Here is what the list looks like:

  • Daily Bible reading 
  • Stick to my 5-5-5-5 plan for reaching out to more people: 5 calls, 5 texts, 5 emails and 5 handwritten notes every day 
  • Time block my calendar 
  • Send out Spring cleaning letter
  • Find two agents for Clever Tom
  • Write query letter for Clever Tom
  • Set up ballet barre in bonus room
  • Set out bag of donations for Wednesday
  • Schedule appointments
That's it for me. What are some tasks you're looking to accomplish this week?

Task it Tuesday - Aug 7


Originally created by The Geeky Blogger, Task It Tuesday is a weekly meme to help you--and me--get things done. The challenge is to post a task or list of tasks you want to complete before next Tuesday. These tasks can help you with your blogging life, reading life, personal or professional life.

Here were the things from my last list:

  • Schedule my blogs posts. I want to schedule them on Wednesday for the rest of the month. We will see how it goes. Didn't happen yet, but at least I am not behind right now. 
  • Pack up items to donate when Hartsprings comes on August 2. I have three boxes so far. DONE
  • Clean my office. I've been moving my in-laws' paperwork and filing cabinet into my tiny office and now I have too much stuff in here. Time to declutter. Partially done. Shredded things, put more things away, and I can see more of the floor now. Still need to get all the rest of their files into my filing cabinet and throw the old metal one away. It's in bad shape.
As for this week, the cleaning out at the in-laws' place must continue. It's due to close at the end of the month. This weekend some of the furniture is going. Today, I brought a few more things here and went through them. On Friday, assuming I can take a day off, I'll dig into the basement more. That's where most of the stuff is. 

What's on your to-do list this week?

Task it Tuesday - July 24


Originally created by The Geeky Blogger, Task It Tuesday is a weekly meme to help you--and me--get things done. The challenge is to post a task or list of tasks you want to complete before next Tuesday. These tasks can help you with your blogging life, reading life, personal or professional life.

Here was my list from last week:
  • Clean out most of my in-laws house on Thursday. Dumpster is coming so hope to get a lot done. Heat might be an issue. Living areas and shed are done. Cellar and my hubby's old bedroom are the big ones that need to be tackled. I moved everything out of his attic, so that's a good start. Filled one dumpster, but I think we will need a second. 
  • Post a review of The Patriot Bride by Kimberley Woodhouse. Loved it! Can't wait for the next book in the series. Posted yesterday.
  • Schedule a time to get the old furniture out of the house. Not that I have bought the new furniture yet, but I don't want to deal with taking it out while getting the new pieces in. I think I need a few days of empty, clean space. Talked to the contractor, but haven't set a date yet.
  • Make my plan to clean out my own house: donate, trash, and clean. That might become my new mantra. The minute I am finished with my in-laws' place, this is happening. Next dumpster is coming here.

For this week, I have a few things I'm working on:

  • Schedule my blogs posts. I want to schedule them on Wednesday for the rest of the month. We will see how it goes.
  • Pack up items to donate when Hartsprings comes on August 2. I have three boxes so far. 
  • Clean my office. I've been moving my in-laws' paperwork and filing cabinet into my tiny office and now I have too much stuff in here. Time to declutter.
How about you? Are there any tasks on your to-do list this week?
