Time Blocking and To Do Lists

As I get older, I'm finding that routines, maintenance lists, and checklists are the only way to get things done.  On Sunday, I make a list of all our appointments and scheduled items on the board so we can see them when we're at the breakfast table. Repair people want a window to be here so I have a short list of things I can do while I wait.

The birds want their feeders filled when they are empty, the water bowls around the yard for visiting cats and dogs need to be refreshed daily, and the roses need to be deadheaded every couple of days.

This week, Henry has a doctor's appointment, and the car needs to be serviced, so I will have to schedule that. Then there is the general cleaning and cooking.  For work I have two 1/2 day appointments for showing houses. I have 2 hours each morning to do blogs and write for the webpages.  Tuesday, I have a Zoom meeting with the webmaster about the new feature he wants me to try. We have a termite inspection on Wednesday and a meeting with the surveyor on Tuesday morning to mark pins on a lot I have for sale.  Thursday is the first, so tenants will be here with their rent, and I have to change the air filters. Thursday, is the meeting with the accounting to review the 1st quarter and figure out what I need to cut back on or expand for the 2nd quarter.  

As you can see our schedules rule, with out it written out and a todo list for each day we would be lost. I would love to hear your tips for planning your day, put them in the comments so I can follow along.  Have a great and productive week.

The days get shorter as we get older it seems. Lists and prioritizing is the key to have enough hours left at the end of the day. 🙂
