I have decided to get myself more organized.

 

To said affect, I am dividing my days into 7 stages:

• 1.       Sleep
• 2.       Lying in bed before getting up
• 3.       Things that need to be done to make myself presentable
• 4.       Daily Chores
• 5.       Cocktail Hour (My definition of time is not regulated by any clock.)
• 6.       Getting ready for bed
• 7.       Sleep

I have been creating list of things I have to do to go on to the next stage of the day.

Of course, “Sleep” was a no brainer. I just needed to wake. Then there was some heated debate about the definition of “wake”. Frankly, it got ugly. The whole topic was shelved. 

So, then I went on to “Lying in bed before getting up”. I decided to create a checklist of goals that need to be met (with exception for fire, flood, you know; that disaster movie type of crap) before I split the sheets. Mental exercises, limb checkings, eye focusings, digit countings. That kind of stuff. I am now up to 47 goals that need to be met. 

I did some data mining and extrapolating and checking all exponential factors. According to my most recent calculation, it is estimated that it will be Mid-February before I am allowed out of bed, other than for potty breaks. 

So, I will think about “Things that need to be done to make myself presentable” later. Much later.
