Happy Friday! It’s time to get ourselves organized for the weekend with another round of Finish It Friday. I find my weekends are so much more productive when I make a to-do list, and a plan, on Friday. Want to join in the fun? If so, simply share your to-do list in the comments, and then, check back here on Monday to report your progress. It’s a fun way to get yourself ready for the weekend so you put your time to good use. And reporting your to-do list in the comments is a form of friendly accountability. When you go public with your list, you’re just that much more committed to getting stuff done.
So are you in this week? I am. Here’s what’s on tap for me:
Play List
- Boot camp. Someone asked last week what boot camp is, so I thought I’d explain. Boot camp is a group fitness class that is a mix of cardio and strength training for one fun-filled hour. (Okay, maybe it’s JUST fifty-five minutes, but who is counting, right?)
- Movie night with friends.
To Finish
- Decide on a snack for movie night. And then, shop for the ingredients and make it.
- Laundry.
- Hand-wash a wool sweater.
- Clean house.
- Plan meals for the week, including what I’m bringing for Thanksgiving. Darn, this means I may have to spend some time on Pinterest. 😉
- Take some forms to get notarized.
- Work on gift lists and share with family members.
- Make 30 minutes of progress going through some old project files in my office.
Yikes, better get busy! Hope you have a terrific weekend. Thanks for joining me for Finish It Friday this week. 🙂
