Getting Stuff Done

forestofgloryI've been working hard all morning. I got such a lot done too. I wrote a long (but shorter than I'd like) email to a friend, I wrote a one page paper, I worked on my thesis (more copying and pasting, plus dealing with the notes*) I made good progress on my watershed management take home exam. And I emptied the dishwater. I wish I could be productive like this every day. Things that are left on my to-do list make dinner, and finish alphabetizing and recording the grades for the latest assignment.
I've got to head out for class soon. I'm going to be nice to myself and read my novel on the bus rather than my thesis related non-fiction book.
*I have a new plan for dealing with my documents. That's been working so far. I open up the notes and read them and don't let myself get distracted by the internet for half an hour everyday. I don't get a lot done in half an hour, but get more done than I was with focused time. The limited seems to be helpful. Because I know I can stop and call it done on that part of the project for the day. I may try doing two sessions after the end of the semester.
