QOTW 3/26/07

Question of the Week


The question of the week for March 26, 2007 is:

How do you remind yourself of daily tasks? A to do list? A computer program? Let us know the details!

I tend to make lists on index cards, in my blog posts, on post it notes… I try to make them as visible as possible. If not, none of it ever gets done. I can’t use a particular program on a computer as it just ends up being more work than writing it down.

Writing it down also seems to help me internalize the information, so I don’t need the list so much after I write it.

We might still go to Puerto Rico

ergh. I just found out *after I was so relieved* that we are probably more than likely going to Puerto Rico at the end of next month… Husby’s job told him he is still getting his vacation days that he wanted. I am going to have to really pray and prepare my mind/spirit for this. We are visiting his family who I have never met. I haven’t been practicing my Spanish very much. The kid has a slight aversion to learning it right now. I am at a loss. I am scared.to.death.

I would much rather hit up a Family Vacation Resort and call it a day. It might come out cheaper, too, as they have a savings program that can save you up to 50% normal rates. I just looked up a resort in the area we will be visiting. We can get $116 a night for rooms in a luxury hotel with air conditioning. I hear that they don’t have a/c anywhere but one room in his family’s house down there. It was relatively easy to find what I needed on the site and they do have dates open that we want. I would rather stay in a resort than to suffer from heat stroke in a house.


Survivor, blogger style

I got chosen by two friends of mine as someone they would want on their island if we all had to be stranded there. You can only have 5 people with you, and boy howdy, was this hard.

Here they are and why:

Marisa cuz she is my road dog. We would have a load of fun. She would also keep me from going insane. Being that she is small, she could fit into tight places to get at resources we might find.

Marcus because he has lots of knowledge and resourcefulness. He is also a blast to talk to. I bet he would be great at protection, being a security guard and all that.

Jeanette is a sweetheart, and I am sure that her being there will keep everyone from getting to the point where they bite off each other’s heads LOL. She is witty and would be an asset to the crew in so many ways.

Cass is my sister twin. I know that she is cool to hang with, but she can also knit. I bet she would make some awesome clothing from vines and leaves as well as helping make tents for us to sleep in.

Skeet for her stories and knowledge. You could never get bored listening to her chat about her life. She also has a lots of practical insights.


Another day, the ice is melting

It’s great outside. I don’t want to go out there…not enough to take the dog to walk. It’s gorgeous out. I am nearly at an end of my want to blog. What does that mean? I am not going to disappear off the face of the blogosphere, I just want to find the reason for it all again. Sure, funds are great… but I am just losing my drive. I love to compartmentalize my thoughts and feelings so I can sort it all out. It’s all jumbled right now though…
