An Update:
My sugar reduction challenge has been going really well. I now drink coffee with cream, no sugar. Mochas tend to make my lips pucker because they are so sweet.
I was able to tighten my belt down a notch, not that I really needed to. What I was really worried about was the possibility of diabetes in my future, plus how sugar helps to weaken your immune system. No thank you! I'm certainly not completely sugar free, but I do feel quite liberated from my previous dependency!
I'm hoping to head back to Wyoming on Thursday. I have a plane ticket for Friday, but I'd like to get on standby for a plane on Thursday so I can see Rick and my family that much sooner! Thank goodness I get a short break!
A Good System:
I'm always on the lookout for new ways to help my productivity levels, especially regarding school work. I've discovered a very simple way of doing this.
- I have a white board. I make a list of all the projects I have to complete.
- I then make a daily to-do list with an area for check marks.
- I get so happy when I check things off my to-do list!
- When I finish a project, all I do is wipe it off the board!
It's so simple, that it might actually work. I found my problem with planners was the "out of sight, out of mind" adage. I just never looked at what I had due, so I'd be frantically trying to do things the night before.
It's obviously not a flawless system, but I do enjoy the feeling of accomplishment I get when I erase a big project. How childlike of me!
