One of the things I do at work each day while not looking at a computer screen is to make a list of things to buy and things to accomplish. Some of these lists I make involve things I need to do now, and other things I need to do in the future- such as blogging about my future vaccinations. This helps to keep my mind focused enough to get through the day at work, and to help set my priorities for the near future.
Some of the things on these lists involve people I want to call, so that I can arrange my social schedule for the next couple of weeks. This can involve setting up an occasional date or two. Other things involve cooking, and and the ingredients I have at hand. Often, I plan to buy salad and eat it, but I never get around to it. Other times, I plan to cook some pudding, but I never get around to it - the milk I have in the ice box always seems to go to waste. Very little of these things to do and things to buy ever get checked off.
With this being said, I feel that making these lists is a good thing, as I know what my priorities are. The things I did not buy or did not do are not that important at the moment, but the ones I checked off the list were the ones that were needed to be taken care of most.
So I will continue to make my lists and see what happens next.

If nothing else, making lists will keep your active. Getting the things done on the list are always a problem unless you have a limitless amount of time. I don't know if this will help but I make lists too but at the end of the day, I look at what I've accomplished from the list and prioritize what left to accomplish the next day. I also look at what's on my list and decide what was a necessity or a splurge so to speak.
