Have you ever noticed how much you get done in a week is in inverse proportion to how much you intend to get done?
The weeks that my to-do list is smallish we have a quiet, uneventful week where everyone generally behaves, nothing major breaks down and we are not struck with any major sicknesses.
But on the weeks I intend to actually accomplish something, well, I'm beginning to realize I really stink at planning stuff.
This week we have been hit by the stomach flu. By we I do mean all four of us. Let's just leave it there shall we.
It's not been pretty.
So, the cookies I wanted to bake, the Christmas letter I intended to write, the posts I was hoping to blog, the cleaning my house is begging me for, they shall all be accomplished next week.
I hope.

Maybe you could add other things to the list like...
*Comfort Spud
*Get sick
*Comfort Sprout
*Get sick
*Do laundry
*Pray for deliverance
Then you'll have lots to tick off the list!
HOpe you feel better soon.
Oh no! Sprout got hit with it too? How sad! Are you feeling better?
Oh honey, I've been there. Ugh. I'll be praying- and knittinchick, you are too funny!!
Seriously - you are SO right about the inverse proportion! When I plan NOTHING in my day we get to the end and I find that I was incredibly productive. When I plan lots of things (ok, well, anything!) I usually get to the end and find myself in tears, wailing to my husband that NOTHING GOT DONE!!!! ;) I'm glad I'm not the only one whose life goes like that!
