I saw an article in a magazine the other day. It was about what you could accomplish in a short amount of time. Everyone has a few minutes here and there in between errands, dinner, homework, etc. It got me to thinking and figuring out 20 things I could do in 20 minutes. I am going to post it somewhere I can read it and remind myself that I can get a lot done in 20 minutes.
20 Things to do in 20 Minutes
1. Answer email
2. Pay online bills
3. Make all the beds in the house
4. Declutter something, i.e. junk drawer, a pantry shelf, top of nightstand or dresser
5. Watch a 30 minute show that you have recorded
6. Update your blog
7. Make up some cookie dough
8. Plan the menu for the week
9. Do your hair—a change from the ponytail!
10. Read a couple of chapters in a book
11. Go around the block a few times—get the heart pumping
12. Relax, meditate or try a yoga pose or a few stretches
13. Attack the To Iron pile
14. Reach out and touch someone—call, write or email a friend
15. Do a crossword, sudoku or other mind game—www.thinks.com
16. Play a game with the kids
17. Make play-dough
18. Paint your toenails
19. Work on a craft/sewing project

I think it would take me more than 20 minutes to do any one of those things...I think I need to be more motivated like you!
Good to remember that there are a lot of things we can get done with little chunks of time. I think I'm like Yumi and think that any one of those things will take me so long that I procrastinate until I have an hour or two, but really I could of gotten a good start in a 20 minute time slot.
it would take me 20 minutes just to write that list.
You are the list queen and I bet you could do every single one of those things in 20 minutes tops. Good luck girl!! You are my inspration to get organized.
