at least you can/did check one off your list -- contact me!
wow, this is one long list. wish i could help -- LMK if i can (tho not necessarily with big $$). :)
This list looks like anyone's worst nightmare...
And somewhere in there you need to change your socks too. good luck!!
I was desperate, so I read your list. My to-do list is much shorter: eat, sleep, work (actually take day off), fish and drink beer with wife.
See, this is what happens when you just lie about eating bon-bons and reading trashy novels.
Good luck with all. Disperse what you can. Set fire to a few... let us know if we can take one or two.
1. Eat till you're tired
2. Sleep till you're hungry
Hey! Where are all the posts? It isn't like you have anything else to do.
from your list:
client 4 followup
client 5: followup tasks
take load of trash to dump
btw, are we one of the above? (i'd thought i'd include the last item instead of you having to...) ;-)
hope your list is getting checked off.
