Turning the office/guest room into "my office" and the grandkids' room into a guest room/grandkids' room.

Even not working I find it difficult to find the time to do everything that I want and need to do.<br />My post today deals with an aspect of this topic. I've decided to eliminate blog awards due to the time it takes to organize and maintain them. That's time that can be used for other things. I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.<br />Managing time is about making some sacrifices that are not always what we like or are popular with others, but we have to assess priorities.<br />You pinpointed it here.<br /><br /><br />Lee<br /><a href="http://tossingitout.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Tossing It Out</a>Arlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11634512.post-70089450518941799392011-10-10T21:45:52.418-04:002011-10-10T21:45:52.418-04:00I have such a small writing place in the small dup...I have such a small writing place in the small duplex I share with my disabled daughter, I need to buy a cork board so I can keep track of things!

Thanks to my glorious unemployment I write every day when ever I am moved to. I've found that my writing output has increased about fifty-fold. I hope to never write another list.<br /><br />I thoroughly enjoyed this blog post.
