The past few times I've played the dice game, I got started then started doing random things here and there that needed to be done. I'm okay with that. The dice game sort of sets the agenda and gets me started. Here is tomorrow's list:
1. Birdfeeder 2. Cat box 3. Chicken coop 4. Exercise 5. Feed/water chickens 6. Financial, etc 7. Kitchen 8. Laundry, laundry, laundry 9. Meal prep 10. More laundry 11. Pay bills 12. Pick a box or bin and sort/toss 13. Sewing, Knitting, Craft Project 14. Sort through a pile of papers 15. Trash out (skip until afternoon) 16. Water plants 17. Yardwork/Garden 18. Focus Area: Kitchen Floor 19. Range 20. Countertops 21. Refrigerator 22. One shelf in one cabinet
Well I have been working around here today with out tossing the dice. Maybe I'll just get a late start. I'll start with 6: financial. I actually just did part of this, but need to do a little more. Paid school tax, and check to DD's college. Next 3 (9) meal prep. I'll pack up some yogurt for my snack tomorrow, and look to see what I can make for dinner.

Today's list. I started my microbiology class last night, and need to spend a few hours studying. I plan to start a load of laundry, go out for a jog, and then start with my list. If studying doesn't come up, I'll stop and spend some time doing that.
1. Exercise 2. Financial 3. Kitchen 4. Laundry 5. Meal prep 6. Path to kitchen 7. Pick a box or bin and sort/toss 8. Sewing, Knitting, Craft Project 9. Sort through a pile of papers 10. Study for class 11. Trash out (Skip until afternoon) 12. Water plants 13. Yardwork/Garden 14. Focus area: Dining area south 15. Dining area, north 16. Dining area west 17. Dining area east
I started a load of laundry, then went out for a walk (1). Part of that laundry is in the dryer now. 1st roll: 1 (2)Pay bills 2nd roll: 4 (6)Path to kitchen. I'm also going to work on laundry
As has been my pattern lately, I choose a couple things from the list that I do to start, then I roll a couple of times, then I just start working here and there as I see things that need to be done. I did need to spend quite a bit of time studying today and preparing for tomorrow's class, so that reduced my ta-da's by a bit.
