Both Murphy and I had some fierce to do lists tonight. So, here are four easy steps to get things done that we used and maybe these will help you out as well:

1. Categorize the list into bite size chunks.
2. Do the hardest tasks first.
3. Realize that these lists will never end, but our time together will someday. Decide to drop everything and go out to dinner 40 minutes away at Maui Express in Shawnee, KS and have a great time, then drive to the Gear Warehouse sale in Lenexa, KS to pick up some great deals on clothes. Laugh some more. Enjoy each other’s company. Appreciate the good times we’ve had and the time we have left before he leaves the nest.
4. Use music to help with your productivity.
