I agree, Shirley, it's crazy to get overwhelmed by things to do that we forget why we're doing them. :) Thanks for sharing your ideas, bikehikebabe and Shirley!

I too use Sudoku to soothe my mental stress. Puzzle are hard and you have to concentrate so those racing thoughts slow down. I also like to put on my headphones and dance until I'm tired. Both activities slow me down and stop that stress spiral. To me the holidays are about fun, family, food and love. If I'm not getting enough of that then there's something on my to-do list that can wait until later. :0) I like your idea Jean. I too use Sudoku to soothe my mental stress.

My to-do list is very l-o-n-g. I also get on my Nordic Track treadmill but I consider that one of my JOBS. But I feel great afterwards, so that the other jobs don’t matter so much. My husband’s motto is, “Do it & be done with it.” :-) I sometimes Do it.–More often I Delay it.–I never Ditch it. My to-do list is very l-o-n-g.
