But I just 'cleaned' my electronic to-do list and discovered I have done far more than I realized this summer. In the past month I have:
- created from scratch a unit on Julie of the Wolves
- taught a lesson from said unit
- moved my computer and books from my corner of the living room back to the desk
- cleaned off/out the desk
- rearranged some furniture in the living room so the exercise bike is no longer the first thing you see when you walk in the house
- cleaned out/rearranged the upstairs closet
- cleaned out my closet--it's a walk-in again!
- painted the hallway (pictures upcoming)
- recovered two chairs (pictures upcoming)
- done lots of laundry
- resumed work on my novel (this is a big part of what I want to work on this summer--WRITING)
Now that's pretty good as far as I'm concerned. Still on the list:
- paint the hallway trim
- paint the kitchen (walls and . . . *dunh-dunh-dunh* cabinets)
- paint the laundry room (?) I have LOTS of left over paint from the hallway and this room has unfinished sheetrock in it
- various sewing projects, possibly including a simple, large-square quilt for Aaron
- much more writing and some submitting
- find a job
I know I will not get all of this done, so it becomes a matter of prioritizing. And then I get frustrated when stupid school work pops up. So I find myself needing to quantify. And then I feel a little bit better.

AND you have worked in your yard! Looks to me like you've accomplished a lot!
*golf clap*
Completely unrelated to this post: I've just had a chance to visit here in a week, and I love the new layout.
Ooh! Yes, the yard! I forgot about that.
Thanks, Angie. I really like it, too! I'm glad Blogger finally expanded the options.
