Goodness reading the huge list alone was challenging, how you did all those tasks makes me go crazy! You look like a multi tasker .You know what, secretly I wish I could do even 2% of what you do in your entire busy weekend.It’s always good to be busy than to stay idle.I believe this is how most of your weeks are.

Kate – I am definitely not superwoman – a sloth more like it, some days!
I probably did not make it clear if you are new to the blog – that I only add 4 things each week and by keeping the list I actually force myself to go back and finish things from previous weeks. One of my goals is to finish everything that is outstanding on the list by Monday when I post 4 new things. That way I will be able to archive the last 12 weeks and start afresh for the next 11 weeks before we head off on our holidays.
While the list has been good to keep me accountable, I do not know whether I will do this again.
Thanks for reading. Come back and visit to see what else I get up too.
