A List with Comments*

EDITED for Ben and Jerry’s ice cream! There was a lot of interest in the B&J ice cream I got a small cup of black raspberry yogurt since you asked! Plan for the day:

  1. Eat a good breakfast. I have consciously been trying to do this every day not just on the days I go out to school. This is done– mini wheat and bran cereal, a banana and coffee.
  2. Go for a walk. Again, I am trying to get daily walking back into my life. This is done. It was chilly this morning. I forgot Fred’s guidelines of when to wear gloves {50 degrees or lower} so my hands were cold at the beginning of my walk but swinging my arms soom warmed them up. I also should have worn a headband over my ears which are only now recovering!
  3. Call Dish Network and cancel the free HBO. This is done. I don’t think either of us has ever looked at it! They start charging us for it next month.
  4. Start working on my oral report in Italian. This is what I will do next. I have A Plan! I am going to write one sentence in Italian  about each of the required elements and then flesh that out over the course of the next few days.
  5. Start work upon the grammar part of this weeks assignment. I always write the assignment out by hand in my notebook first and then type it. If the assignment goes well, and I feel it will because although I have as yet not looked at it, I know it is on conjugating verbs and I like this kind of thing, I will get all four exercises done. If I have a problem, I will do what I can do until my brain seizes up! Typing will be done tomorrow.
  6. Do my clean-one-room-a-day routine. It is the turn of the kitchen today.
  7. REWARD time! I am off to the University Mall in South Burlington {which, contrary to what common sense may tell you is NOT the south part of Burlington but a separate city } primarily to go to Radio Shack to get a long extension cord for the earphones but also to wander around, window shop and have some Ben and Jerry’s ice cream! {A tiny cup–overpriced but good!}

Hi ho! Hi Ho! It’s off to chores I go!

Until later….

I went to that mall the last time I was in Burlington (2001 for the handbell conference). Yum, Ben and Jerry’s! My favorite is peanut butter cup.

Watch out for the snow it might be on it’s way. It has been snowing for three days. Thankfully no accumulation.

I saw a tv documentary about Ben and Jerry, and how they started their ice cream business. It was very interesting! We don’t have a Ben ‘n Jerry’s that close…. so for us it’d have to be Baskin Robbins. You are quite efficient, with your lists and routines. Having a room-a-day plan sounds like somethin I should try to incorporate…. :o) !! hugs, Weesprite

::smile:: My mom used to give us chores in lists format when I was a little girl. I still do that to this day, and it gives me a sense of some kind of accomplishment when I can cross out things on a list. Enjoy your reward and your Ben and Jerry’s ice cream! Yummy!!

Sounds like a great day, with great plans! Always good to start the day with a good breakfast!

Cleaning one room a day is a good routine. I must get back into that. 🙂 The only Ben and Jerry’s we have is in the freezer section of our Kroger store.
