In all reality I have trouble doing anything the same way twice. DRD would sell his soul if I would stick to one meatloaf concoction. I drive to work one way, I drive home another. Even in my job, which can be exhaustingly repetitive at times, I can't bring myself to do the same task exactly the same way if I'm doing it over and over. I think a lot of it has to do with the fact that I HAVE to go to work every day. I HAVE to get up and take a shower and get out the door. I HAVE to go to the grocery store on the weekend. There is so much that I have no control over I guess it's just how I feel like I'm in charge! So Carole's list today is 10 Things You Do Every Day. In no particular order, except for #1. 1. Get up and have a cup of coffee. Crucial.
2. Watch some kind of t.v.
3. Knit - really if it's even only one or two rows.
4. Read something. Newspaper, magazine, book.
5. Check Facebook, blogs, email.
6. Talk to my Dad.
7. Kiss my honey good-bye in the a.m. and goodnight in p.m. Without fail.
8. Text TLP, LJP, LJR and JAP.
9. Try to be thankful for all that I've got.
10. Make sure the sink is empty of dishes!

Great list! And I agree - it's fun to add some variety to the mundane things we need to do every day.
I love to knit a bit every day, but the days I sleep for night shift generally dont get any needle time
#10 made me laugh - I'm guessing that's a chore that sometimes barely gets done before bed! I don't watch tv everyday - unless marc is here in which case the tv is on non-stop. I enjoy the quiet (of course that means I don't watch news, or have any idea what the weather is like!)
(until I go outside :-)
I, too, get bogged down by tedium and try to mix things up a bit . . . so I totally get it! I need to knit every day, too -- even if just for a minute. There's something about . . . holding the needles. . . (I go days and sometimes weeks without the tv, though.)
