Christmas To Do List Update

Well it wasn’t on my to do list, but I just spent the entire day cooking for a small dinner party. Now I’m too exhausted and too stuffed to do anything else but go to bed! (Though it is kind of early and I can get some good reading time in. ) I guess staying up to 3:30am trying to figure out how to export my email address book to my gmail account could have something to do with my exhaustion.

It’s almost the new year and I don’t feel like I’ve accomplished half of what I wanted to. Let’s check the list and see.

Set up my website www.ginaconroy.com 
I’m still struggling with finding the right host for my domain. I started out with Hosting Matters, then switched to A Small Orange, then to Go Daddy and now I’m looking at DotEasy. Does anyone use any of these and if so, what do you think?

Transfer my blogs to my website Obviously can’t do this without first setting up a website!

Put last year’s Christmas photos in the Christmas album
Yeah! I also developed this years Christmas photos and plan on spending most of the day and night, Friday and Saturday cropping. I’d also like to put Chris’ Narnia photos in his album.

Finish writing my mystery novella Um, still working on this, but hubby said I could lock myself away in a hotel next weekend to do this.

Finish writing my juvenile adventure series with my boys
My boys are too busy playing endless hours of PS2, but I think I’ll print out what I have and let Chris read it tomorrow. I’m sure he’ll have tons of suggestions!

Figure out curriculum for next semester, especially where Timmy needs to be in Math
This one is probably the most important and the one I’ve been putting off. It shouldn’t take me more than an afternoon. But which afternoon?

Finish reading The Box Car Children to Timmy and Grace
Chris finished reading this book to Timmy!

Read The Sign of the Beaver to Chris and Joey and do the unit study
I’ll probably focus on this the first week back to school.

Straighten up my desks (Always a Work in Progress)
[Looking around at the clutter surrounding me]

One thing I did do that wasn’t on my list was to transfer my email and send everyone a new email notification. So I’m crossing it off my list.

I probably should tackle one or two things on this list tomorrow morning, but I’ll most likely spend the morning on my elliptical exercise machine and getting all my supplies ready to scrapbook. I’m almost dreading going, knowing how much I have to do, but I will also be relieved when I come home an album full of photos instead of blank pages!
