Take two. I had finished my post and hit select all/copy but hit paste instead. Sigh. Oh well.
I got my daily blog update from Ellen at Thrifty & Chic Mom today and it was called Focus Friday. I was intrigued so I went to the post and read it. Ellen has started a new series for 2009 where she wants herself and others to be accountable for things that need to be focused on. She will blog on Fridays about what needs focusing on for the upcoming week. Then on the next Friday she will show accountability by sharing if she was successful or not. I LOVED this!
I have been having trouble keeping myself accountable for things that I need to be doing. I think this might be a great thing for me to participate in. What more kinda of pressure does one need, then having everyone on the Internet check up on you?
Here is my list of focus’s for the week of Friday January 16-23rd:
- Organize/calculate all my receipts for the past 2 months for work , and get reimbursed
- Clean out/close out my storage unit-move things to my other unit
- Find items and organize for meeting on Sunday to give away
- Condense my books, Pampered Chef items etc into smaller amounts of boxes
- Find the food chopper for Amy
- Start an excel file for my Stampin Up stamp sets I own-way too many of course
I am so thankful for Ellen for starting this series! I can’t wait to report in next Friday. I really enjoyed reading the other Focus Fridayer’s blogs about what they will be doing!

Hi Nanny! Thank you for commenting on my blog! It is nice to know someone is reading! I am glad you joined in and you are right when you said maybe the pressure of having it on the internet will help us get it done! Your list looks great but also a lot to get done in a week, I sure wish you luck. I hope we both have a great update next Friday. See you then…
