One step ahead

Time management. Tricky. I wish I could actually manage time rather than it managing me!

There are a few key things that I have realised this week:
1 I must always stay one step ahead. Always be aware of what will be happening in the next couple of days (long enough to get laundry done and dry, and shopping done) and prepare for it.
2 I must get the trivial jobs done as soon as possible (answering invitations, filling in school forms, etc.) then they're out of the way and not niggling at me.
3 I must prioritise. If I don't have time to do everything, just make sure I do what's most important (usually involves food and laundry!).

I still can't come to terms with the fact that there will always be lots to do. Once I'm at peace with that, I think I'll have cracked it.

Must get on, lots to do...
