    While I didn't get everything done last week, I actually felt like I accomplished a lot for this first time in a while. It also motivated me to do tons of little stuff that may not have been on my list but needed to be done anyways. So count me back in for this week. I'm going to do the same numbers/countdown as last week.

    6 Things for Sunday:
    1. Start a SA bag
    2. Give myself a mini facial - I used to do this weekly, haven't done it in a few months
    3. Finally go to prenatal yoga. I've been saying I will for 3 weeks and haven't done it yet
    4. Fill bird feeder
    5. Organize LMC Binder
    6. Fling 10 things

    Laundry 3
    Clean out car
    package bird bags
    Find address for bird bags
    Clean vanity in Mbath
    Clean LR
    Package Valentine present
    Make pincushions
    Package pincushions
    5-7 SU
    Call Lani re lunch for the week
    Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.
