Google Tasks

Have you tried using the Google Tasks app yet?  I only just recently learned of it, and decided to download it to my phone. 

My thinking was that it could help me keep on top of my household chores. And with mom in rehab, I'm also having to take care of her household, her errands, and her banking.  So that's a lot to keep track of!

I found I was letting my own things slide. That's not new, I have been doing that since she moved to AZ, because she is the "I want it now" kind of person.  

For a while, I was just jotting things in Calendar.  So if ahe wanted something, it was "check my calendar".  Works for dr appts but not daily life tasks.

So I have switched to Tasks. I like that I can schedule "clean the bathroom" and also to prompt it to appear weekly, or daily, and posts a reminder on my home screen. At first, I was ignoring them, justifying that I need to do other things instead. But I've gotten into a rhythm, one or two chores a day, and forcing myself to pay attention, to do just that one thing. 

And it feels great to check it off as an accomplishment!!  As these are the things that give me those good feels at the end of the day!!  If you haven’t tried Tasks, maybe you should!!
