    This is SO True Ali -- I actually have almost the same thing posted right above my computer screen at work in all caps:

    ONE TASK AT A TIME

    I always need the reminder too!

    You nailed it, again, Ali. And so true for a mid-week posting. Everything seems to pile up on a Wednesday, and then, frenetic activity intensifies.

    Thanks for the simple reminder for some simplicity in our lives!

    i SOO need this! Yesterday I was crocheting, watching a movie and reading a blog ... granted I can crochet without looking and I've watched the movie a million times ... but crazy. I was reminded of this very same thing ... but shame on me - I'm eating and reading your blog .. I really need to find a better place to eat!

    Thanks Ali! Right now, i'm scanning really old family photos from a book my grandfather made... am mightily resisting the temptation to get up from my chair and putter around my studio while stuff scans! Can't wait to print out a copy of the book for myself and use the images in Y&T and around our house!

    Multi-tasking is sooooo over-rated

    Thank you, Ali! Just balancing homeschooling, house chores, and time for myself has been crazy. So needed to be reminded of this. Thank you. =)

    I think I needed to see this today too. I'm overloading myself with too many things on my list and it's not getting me very far!

    Yup, this is the big one for me. Very guilty of multitasking too much, not being in the moment and concentrating on one thing. This is one of the things I'm working on this whole year in my quest to simplify and improve my life. Love all your advice here and on facebook!
