We live a mile from Carfest so I'm doing my best not to be annoyed by literally everything about it.

Otherwise, over to friends for a wedding celebration this afternoon, pottering in the sewing shed and visiting my folks tomorrow. Monday getting the house tidied for house sitters coming at the end of the week ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Was staying in a hotel on a work trip. We arrived late, tired, busy day ahead. The bed was made up with the sheets all stupidly tight and I didn't yank them off as normal but got in and fell asleep. I never sleep well the first night in a new place, I obviously turned over in the night and my foot was pinned by the sheet.

Was a fun few days trying to coordinate a conference while unable to walk.

Sprained my ankle lying in bed. On my own.

Yep, I signed up, was ok for a day or so and now it's just an unmanageable stream of bs.

Wil be removing myself as soon as I can see that I can do that without deleting my IG account.

I use outlook at work but again it's more about the process.

My inbox is my "to do" list. I have lots of folders and subfolders and I file everything. Once a day I try to take a few minutes to file stuff that's been dealt with.

I do also file some "sent"mail too as I'm kinda CYA cautious like that.

I get a bit stressed if my inbox gets to the point where I have to scroll down through it - that tells me I need to delegate, file or close out some items.

Some people never file anything and just use the search function in whatever email client they're in, but I'm a bit old and never had that function in the early days so it doesn't come naturally to me - an inbox with 20,000 messages in it just freaks me out.

I also use the conversation function which keeps everything tied together regardless of which folder it's in.

Trial and error. You don't have to stick to a routine or method - if it's not working for you, change something until it does.
