Wildlife Snuggery Crochet Hanging Basket

Meet Leilani a Possum in the care of Kinjarling Marsupial Rescue.  When this Snuggery was hung in her enclosure Leilani was quick to snuggle up in it and that is how these crochet hanging baskets came to be called a "Snuggery".

Overstuffing My To Do List



Overstuffing my to do list and taking on too much is something I have habitually done for as long as I can remember. I'm working toward getting my to-do-list to a realistic length and clutter free.

I've been using google calendar to get a realistic idea of how much time I really have. I started off with just adding in the daily things I have to do, including chores and blogging tasks, even the little thing that need to be done every day like feeding and playing with our pets. 

There isn't a lot of time left after everything is listed. 

It's been a real eye opener as to how my expectations and reality of what I should get done just don't match. As I declutter the stuff in my life I am also trying to declutter all the other areas of my life as well so I can enjoy each moment instead of worrying about ten others that haven't happened yet. 

Do you try and stuff to much into your life?

    We used Google Calendar too. It's a great tool to have. I don't put my blogging tasks in our family Google calender or else mine would look very cluttered too. Oh well, hope your able to "remove some of that stuffing" lol. Thanks for adding my button to your party page!! :)

      I have about 5 google calendars on the go but I like how Google lets me see them all together.

    I totally understand where you are coming from! I like to make mental notes of what I need to do, and even though some do not need to be done the same day, in my head, I feel overwhelmed! I should really start using an organizer and planning things I need to do instead of just making mental notes.

      I always think I can manage with just mental notes but I've had to learn that doesn't always work out well, and that overwhelmed feeling is always there. It is less stressful when my phone/computer just prompts me.

    I used to, but since my kids are grown, and I live alone, I don't so much anymore. Still doesn't mean I get stuff done! Just means I take more naps! lol
    But, I'm seriously de-cluttering my blogging and emails. I have had it up to here! (and I'm very tall!) with 150 emails a day! I do NOT need to know everytime someone likes a comment someone else made on my blog!! Finally figured out how to do that.
    Oops, what were we talking about here?

      I'm glad I don't get emails for likes but I still struggle to keep ontop of them all. I still have a to-do list a mile long though *sigh*

    Yes! I constantly struggle with this. I've realized that some things are just not going to get done. I also have found that if I limit the number of items on my daily to-do list, sometimes I actually get them all finished and can go check something off my running "it would be nice to-do" list. :)

      Keeping an achievable list really does make a difference!
