February 23: Plan of the Day

As the wife of a retired Navy guy, there has always been a POD.  Sometimes I follow it, and sometimes the creative juices win.  Today, I have a plan and aside from my earlier snow walk, I am on track and feel focused.  As usual, I started the morning with prayers and then planned out what I really intend to do with the day.  (updated at 2:00)

• Walking - building up my number of steps and stairs (Ultimate Goal is 12,000 steps a day.) (over half way to today's  goal)
• Cobweb removal from all rooms - why is it that winter means more spiders? (10 min)
• Cut out the other 2 memory bears (35 min)
• Clean the nooks and crannies of the studio (30 min, so far)
• Clean and oil machines
• Begin a realistic list of what quilt UFOs will stay here to be worked on for the last 2 months of our time in Vermont (10 min, so far)
• Load muslin onto the HQ so that it is ready for friends to try more of the continuous line drawing this weekend
• Wipe down the shelves and mop boards in the laundry area, wash the rugs and vacuum (20 min)
• Make grocery list for next week and for our "open house" soup party
• Finish binding on wedding quilt (3/4 of a long side left to stitch)

As you can see, I do intend to give a large chunk of the day to my quilting or at least thoughts of quilting.  Tomorrow's POD is simple.  I am carving and adding more steps to my walking plan.
