Thursday ToDo

It seems as though I get stuff done better when I have a todo list.

Here's my first draft:

Constraints:
Pick up The Dude at 6:45
-leave at 6:25
Eat dinner at 7:30/45
-roast beef, cooks 4 hours, take out of oven ~7:15. Put in oven at ~3:15. No later than 3:15
-salad, you can chop it up now.
-veggie...try peas.
-fresh biscuits? prep all then roll and pop in oven at 7:30, bake 10 minutes.

todo:
-devotions
-exercise
-lunch
-grocery store
-clean kitchen (yikes!)
-clean house (yikes!!)
-put laundry away
-vacuum
-set VCR for 8pm
-call for car appt
-call for eye appt
-dinner prep (thaw RB, chop chop the salad, premake biscuits)

today's schedule:
11: redd up, set VCR
noon: lunch, make groc. list
12:30 grocery
1 call for eye appt, call for car appt
2 clean kitchen
2:30 clean house, put laundry away
3:vacuum
3:15 roast beef in oven, dinner prep

5:15 devotions
5:45 exercise
6
6:10 shower
6:25 leave

There. Aren't you proud of me? And here's a nugget for me to chew on (and for you to read):

Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil. Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the will of the Lord is. Ephesians 5:15-17 ESV

So my instructions for today are clear: look carefully how I walk. Make the best use of the time. Be wise (by understanding what the will of the Lord is). For me, for today, it's fulfilling responsibilities. It's doing the schedule to do God's will (to avoid that paralyzing guilt that overwhelms when I shirk duty). So, off I go. No more blogging till later.
