Re: GAMES! Goals?

I’m back, got a few things accomplished by staying off the internet. But when we went shopping we spent more than we intended to, as usual. I really need to stay away from stores. At least we were able to cash in some points from one of my credit cards.

KrazyKat: Ikea is designed so you will find it hard to leave (cheap food) and buy on impulse. There are shortcuts through the showrooms but I always have the feeling I’m missing something so have to see everything. It drives my husband nuts. But what I do is go online and see what I might want to buy, then write it down and just look for those things and nothing else. I do compare what I wanted to buy with some of the other things in that category, but I try very hard not to buy anything else.

My husband and I decided to sit down with one whiteboard and make some more lists: His, Hers, His & Hers. Just throwing up things we need or want to do over the summer here. Then we’ll schedule those things onto the other whiteboard. I need to see only two weeks of a calendar, what commitments we’ve made during those two weeks and then we plan around that. We’re still not getting everything we need done, but it is helping a great deal in getting a few things done.
