Anyone who has ever seen a comedy performance by Larry the Cable Guy, will be familiar with the redneck saying ‘Git er Done’. The meaning of this phrase, according to the urban dictionary is:

“a [redneck] phrase meaning to go ahead and complete a task, showing support, encouragement, or respect”

So, in that vein, I have decided to use it as my own personal motto, to tick things off my large to-do list, each and every weekend. I’ll list my goals for the weekend, and then on Sunday night, edit the post to give a report on how I did.

I do have some lofty goals for this weekend:

1. Clean the car (inside definitely, outside maybe) [the inside was finished, and let the heavy rain finish the job on the outside]

2. Bath the dogs [due to the rain, we couldn't do this]

3. Complete the first gift album on my list to finish for 2010 (this is a must do for January) [didn't get to this either, because not doing No. 5 on the list prevented it]

4. Meal preparation for the next week (Chilli Con Carne, and Chicken Biryani) [completed, and the Chilli was gooood!]

5. Tidy up my scrap room/office (enough to be able to do no. 3 on this list) [not done, and I have no excuses]

With the standard amount of housework to do on top of this list, and a 3hr fitness seminar to attend on Saturday, I will be moving all weekend to “git er done”. [the housework was done, but on Sunday I pretty much hung out on the couch, trying to avoid any kind of hardwork]
