Eric the Blue

When I got home from school yesterday I compiled a to-do list for the weekend. Then this morning I got up at 6 and drove my daughters across town to their sportzing tournament in Blaine. Then I watched them play three games. Then we drove home, arriving circa 3 p.m. Then I played on my phone for around 90 minutes. I say “around” because it could have been two hours. Then I made supper for myself and the daughter who wasn’t attending the high school prom. When the dishes were clean, I revisited my to-do list. To be precise, I rewrote it, interspersing some tasks that I had completed earlier in the week, which I immediately checked off as done. I am now on my second glass of cheap red wine and hoping that it stops raining in Cleveland so that I can spend the rest of the night watching the Twins on tv.

Reader, you don’t need a life coach. Just an Internet connection will do. Book mark “Eric the Blue” for a stream of ingenious life hacks. I think it’s important to rewrite the list as it’s a little fakey if the only crossed off items are the bottom ones.
