Wes: 10/8/2012
My goal this week is to clean my house. That is all.
What I'm going to do? Probably keep putting it off until Sunday evening but the procrastination can't pass Monday because book club is meeting at my house on Tuesday.
To accomplish I'm going to have to tune out some of my vacation companions I think. Contrary to what they think, an organic bread is not the same thing as a gluten free bread, especially since the third ingredient is an unspecified flour. Instead of explaining the difference and then getting lectured to, I will strive to politely say no and move on. This may require clenching my teeth together to stop the words. As for the knitting, other than taking a break from it for a minute to post this, I'm sitting outside on the rocking chair, watching the lake while knitting. So that one is easy when I want to be alone.
“Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?"
"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to."
"I don't much care where –"
"Then it doesn't matter which way you go.”
― Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland
Work on getting the house organized.
Try to stay sane.

This week I'd like to:
Think of clever things for the "classy" Bachelorette party I'm hosting Saturday
Finish And the Mountains Echoed
Stop being sick
Work on scrapbooking
Learn to meal plan
How I'll do this:
Add two hours to each day (yeah, right..)
Take antibiotics for the sickness
Set certain time aside so I can read, learn to meal plan, and scrapbook also stop watching Pretty Little Liars on Netflix because I'm obsessed.
1) Pack for trip.
2) Make list of Christmas gifts.
3) Make a movie.
4) Write the outline for the melodrama
5) Find my Grandfather his stamp book.
How:
1) Do Laundry and pack on Wednesday as I have plans on Thursday with the hubby (going shopping and to home depot) then will be doing #3 all weekend.
2) I need to get a book and just start the list.
3) 48 hour movie film festival in the inland empire this weekend.
4) Need to decide on number of actors and how to do everything in one or two sets.
5) I need to find a hobby shop on Friday before the movie making starts.
2. Sit down and READ for an extended period of time. I miss my reading time
