Yesterday's timesinks

This is what I was doing yesterday, instead of things I should have been doing, like writing blog posts, working on my WIP, cleaning the house, scanning slides/negatives/old photos/family history stuff, reading from the TBR pile...

I watched the Crazy Horse blast. I love that they tweet imminent blasts with a link to their webcam (and then post it on YouTube)...



...And I kept One & Other open in one of my tabs most of the day (It's addicting!)

Knitting on the plinth 2

You can find out more about the One & Other project here. Too bad Kate M didn't explain in her bio why she was knitting with giant needles in a tiara and ballgown, but you can re-watch her hour - maybe she talked about in a moment I missed (after all, I don't watch it constantly, I do try to have a life...sort of).

  1. Mary, I happened to look at your blog today and see that you are reading David Allen's book 'Getting Things Done'. I just ordered the book yesterday from Amazon hoping it can motivate me a bit. Have you read much of it yet? Today I found a small program based on his book. He does get a lot of raves.

  2. It's helped a lot, even though I haven't totally implemented the whole system (I'm getting there). I listened to the whole thing as an audiobook from the library, then realized I needed the book itself to refer to, so I bought it and I'm working my way through it slowly. I also follow his blog, and he's on Twitter.

    The thing I like best about GTD is he doesn't push "This notebook" or "That program" - it's more a frame of mind that you fit to your needs
