This is my last post, for now, on the Time Management series! I'll be returning to the promotions series sometime in the next day or two.
I've been amazed, as I've worked on this series, how appropriate the timing has been for me, as well as many other people! A lot of my etsy friends have commented that it's really giving them the ideas or the push that they need, and there's nothing better that I could hear! I'm glad that my work can help you guys out, even in small ways :)
For me, it's been a helpful reminder as I deal with life being hectic. Not only are we headed into the holidays, I have a lot on my plate with my personal life. I've found that, since I started making my to-do lists again, I'm getting a LOT more done! It's still frustrating at times as my health likes to throw a wrench into the works, but with my lists I'm staying pretty on top of things for the first time in awhile :)
One thing that I've realized is very important, and I mentioned this in an earlier post, is to remember to take time for yourself. What that means is probably different for each of us. It could be snuggling up by the fire with a book and a cup of tea, or taking a nice hot bath, or even just taking a few minutes to enter a contest! Whatever it is, don't forget to carve out a least a few minutes each day that are just for you, doing something for you! You'll thank yourself :)
Want something fun to do? Go enter this AWESOME soap giveaway that A Good Witch Too is doing - you could win 6 months of soap to wash the wicked away with! Here's just one of the lovely soaps she has in her shop - isn't it tempting?

Thanks, Ruthie! And if you win... I'll customize the soaps because I know you got allergies :)
Good title--we seem to always put ourselves last when perhaps we ought to be first!
I blogged about tax/orgnaization tips with your series in mind. www.tote-n-tots.blogspot.com
Ruthie - I've placed on my daily *to do* list, "read on book." And I've done just that, every night. Thank you for the clearer vision. Take care of yourself, {:-Deb
