Be Gone!

17. Clean out your inbox.

Due more to the technical failure of my hard drive than any real effort on my part, but hey, I'll take it anyway I can get it. My inbox is empty. I've started using Outlook and getting super organized with my email. So I'm crossing this baby off!

De-Cluttering & Stuff

99. Sell, donate, or throw away 101 items.

I have it in my head to do this today. I'll be throwing away, but whether I can get to the 101 items . . . we'll see. I plan to try. You'll be the first to know.

I'm also up for some rug shampooing (#81) very soon. Today or tomorrow is my thought. Perhaps it's too much . . . but I'm feeling energetic and it is the kind of blah day outside where I feel like running around and doing stuff inside.

Monday is still on my calendar as day one of the month-long challenge of early-rising. I'd also like to throw in the breakfast challenge for the same time (because I tend to enjoy and be able to eat breakfast more when I get up early, so it might be easier to do then) and the walking challenge as well. Yes, I know that's a tall, tall order and I should just focus on the one thing . . . but ideally, I mean the real goal, I want to become one of those people who gets up and goes for a walk before breakfast everyday. I want to be one of those women in the cutesy jogging suit, hustling down the sidewalk, pumping a bottle of water in one hand (an ipod would be nice, though not on the list at this time). And of course, achieving this, would be a fantastic step toward the goal of doing a marathon. So it's all connected.

Anyway, nothing's getting tossed with me sitting here in front of the puter.

Working on #17 Inbox

Without even really thinking too much about what I was doing, and in the midst of incredible chaos, today I deleted a whack of messages from my inbox. The task is not complete, but I've got a good start. And it actually wasn't all that long ago that I did a cleaning, so it shouldn't take very long to get on top of it again. For now, I'm off to Miramichi for a week!
