Here's how my day is going:
It is still morning, not quite 11 am. I haven't written in this blog for a while and my attention was drawn to it. No time like the present to refresh my efforts here. This is my oldest blog and I like that it is still online after all these years.
The Wheel of Names - I'd like to give a brief explanation. Sometimes I need help deciding what to do. I keep a list of things to do on Notepad (that app that comes with Windows on my laptop) and I transfer that list to the Wheel of Names each morning.
Here's my current list (and of course this changes depending on what I'm reading or what I need to do).
Bible From 30,000 Feet
DMV Paperwork
Applegate Trail
Housekeeping Ten Minutes
Mu Studies
Art
Ireland
Adventuring Through the Bible
Power of Praying for Your Adult Children
Cloud of Unknowing
Farmer Boy
Madame Bovary
Inventory
Accounting
Business
So, with my list in place, I spin the wheel, and then do what it says. This helps me get done some of those things I don't really want to do. Every day is different as the order of my activities is randomly chosen by the wheel. It helps break up the monotony of being at home alone all the time.
On that website, check out the gallery to see how other people have used the wheel.
Wish art came up more often on your Wheel! Seems like it was more often last summer than this winter, Grateful & look forward to your art!
ReplyDeleteI'll have to do something like the wheel. There are so many things on my To Do list!! Going from one to the other makes it feel ike nothing has been accomplished! Have a couple of same books to read...but they've been waiting awhile!
