Seven Habits of Highly Ineffective People

I think I've found how I'm going to earn my millions...

Habit 1: Don't do anything at all until you've had at least one cup of coffee.  Sit and stare at the table if you have to.

Habit 2: Be sure to start off your day by checking your e-mail and updating your Facebook status.

Habit 3:  Whenever on Facebook, take the time to peruse the family pictures of at least one person you never talk to, maybe don't even know.  If you're the gaming type, take some quizzes and work on your farm.

Habit 4:  Make a list of projects you need to do around the house.  Start some of them, and then go run some errands.

Habit 5:  Take time throughout the day to look at your "to do" list, make note of what still needs to be done, then make yourself a snack.  While you're eating, check your e-mail and everyone's Facebook status.

Habit 6:  Keep your laundry moving.  Wash it, fold it, and then place it on every available flat space in the house.  While placing your laundry, look at any half-done projects and make plans to finish them later.

Habit 7:  When you feel utterly overwhelmed with everything you need to do and the people needing you to do it, make every attempt possible to take a nap and drink another cup of coffee.

Revolution

My only New Year's revolution (misspelling intended) this year was to focus more on my writing, blog more, make money writing somehow, etc.  So I guess it  all works itself out that in the New Year of 2010 I have something more to write about than my life as mom to some extremely interesting children.  This year I get to write about thyroid cancer treatment and how it impacts me and my extremely interesting children.
I've had a lot to say this week, but lacked the mental clarity (thank you lortab elixir).
