Things To Do But Didn't Do

As I blog this, it's raining heavily outside and I am savouring the last few hours of this lovely Thursday afternoon. You see, it's a public holiday today. No office work to think about. *yay!*

When I woke up early this morning, I wanted to do some housekeeping of my laptop; clean up all the old files, back up those that I want and burn all my MP3 files into CDs. I have hundreds of digital photos sitting in different folders, most of which I have not made into prints. It's too expensive an affair to print photos nowadays, though I'd much prefer viewing my photos from a real photo album instead of scrolling them on the computer! My laptop is already more than 3 years old and it's still running good except at a slower speed, probably due to the hundreds of files that I have accumulated over time.

But guess what? It's almost six in the evening and I haven't done a thing! Sitting here, reading at Borders seems to be a far more interesting thing to do. So much for all those housekeeping plans and much more, eh? You think having a "To-Do List" will help??

"To do List" Wont help if you are not disciplined or are distracted. In your case, you were probably distracted by all those books at Borders. To get down to doing all those housekeeping things, dont even step into Borders. I think that will help. (PS I am like that too!)

Hehe! Like you, I keep a mental to-do housekeeping list... but there's more house to keep and other stuff keeping me busy... I still haven't checked off any item on that list!

So, I definitely know what you mean! Besides, you were -- as SAHM said -- probably distracted by your other interest... Books, of course!

Blessed Easter to you and your Bkworms now!
