The Weekend Rush

 I still feel that “I need to get this stuff done during the weekend” rush that wells up on Saturday morning. Even though I have every day off work now, I still have 50 years of momentum pushing me toward the weekend rush.

It’s tough to overcome. One way I’m dealing with it is to make very many small items on my To-Do list, and then schedule one for each day. For example: I have six huge stepping blocks; they’re bricks with about six inches of concrete under them. I want to break them up into small pieces to discard them.To do that, I used a large sledge hammer and do the back-aching work of hitting a block over and over until it finally breaks.

It really wears me out.

So, instead of “Break up stepping blocks” being on my To-Do list, I have “Break up block #1, Break up block #2” etc. up to Break block #6.

So much to do. And I like it that way.
