26th June Unread books that deserve better
Unread books that deserve better – Hurricane bought in desperation because I was out and about with nothing to read the other day. The Home Recording Handbook is the latest Newell, a fabulous and easy read that I’m digesting a chapter at a time.
Day one of Remember The Milk in anger and it proves useful, a busy day with lots to do and breaking it down an element at a time helps. Need to reread my way round GTD though.
The GTD method involves five key steps:
- Capture: Collect all open loops, commitments, and ideas in a designated system, like a notebook or to-do list app.
- Clarify: Process each captured item to determine if it’s actionable. If not, archive, delegate, or trash it.
- Organize: Arrange actionable items into relevant categories like projects, next actions, calendar, waiting for, and someday/maybe lists.
- Reflect: Regularly review your system to ensure it remains current and relevant, and to identify priorities.
- Engage: Execute tasks based on your current context, using the organized system to guide your actions.

A masterpiece (sarcasm) – a festival of crisps, left field and potentially brilliant and awful at the same time.
The weirdest thing in my house – watching Elsie get bothered by this snail.
A fridge magnet – had to be the Indietracks magnet, still miss the festival.
Too many mugs, there’s always too many mugs. Back in for the last early of the week and then we have 4 lates before the bliss of 4 days off. Ash is away this week so Lib’ll step up.
A pet judging me.
What I should be doing… busy day off, all sorts of financial chicanery involves a trip to Wigan. A coffee in the former WH Smiths, nip to the GPs on herself’s behalf and a devil’s haircut. Pint with herself.
A plant that’s trying early start to the day with the end of the earlies.
Smells weird. A dead pigeon beyond smelling.
A snack I didn’t share.
