WELCOME TO A NEW YEAR OF WITing!
The guidelines for WIT are simple: - Do some little thing to make your house less squalorous. ☝️ - Do one more little thing. - Do another little thing. - Once you have 3 things done, post them here! - Post the next 3 things you plan on doing. - Go forth and conquer, return and post again. - You aren't required to do the 3 things you had planned on -- just get any 3 things done and then post proudly.
Remember - if you are tired or sick or injured or depressed or overwhelmed, or just need to break your tasks down into something manageable, you are in the right place!
If the next 15 minutes consists of: - Looked at hopeless living room and felt like crying 😢 - Decided you could take empty pop can to kitchen - Put away book 📚 - Picked up fast food wrappers on coffee table and put them in trash . . . YOU HAVE ACHIEVED THREE-DOM !!!
You could post: Ta-Da's - Took pop can to kitchen - Put away phone book - Threw away McDonald's wrappers Then your To-Do's: - Bring plates and glasses to kitchen - Put dirty socks in hamper - Bring folded towels to linen closet and put away.
Whether you do those 3 to-do's,or something completely different, once you've gotten 3, come back and post.
Remember to take breaks and drink water. Drinking water counts as a Ta-da!
If you can notice what the person before you did, it might cheer them up to hear from you.
Go forth, have fun, and be generous to yourself with the Ta-das. YOU DESERVE THEM!

Thanks for setting up for the non-North Americans, missjean. Very forward-thinking of you! I'm going to finish up tonight in December, but I'll return here when it's January on my street!

Happy New Year WITers! May 2021 bring whatever you want and need most. I plan to only do a few house tasks this morning and then take the rest of the day off, so hopefully that a little focused WITing time will help me to achieve that goal... TA DA Awake fairly early after staying up way too late doing nothing! Stopped playing a game of spider solitaire that I had started after thinking - this is not how I want to begin my new year! (this was a huge deal!! ) TO DO 5 minutes bedroom tidy 5 minutes upstairs landing area tidy Scoop kitty pan

Good morning everyone!! HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
Does anyone else think something through, make a decision and then 10 minutes later find themselves having the same internal discussion, having forgotten the first one, or am I just losing it?
1. Print printables 2. Go through actions from course I watched yesterday 3. PUPA office
