So I started out the day with 7800+ in my inbox and now I have 7658. It would appear as I get further away from current date it is easier to just delete or file, so this is something.
If I get it under 5000 do I get a bronze star. I know it needs to go away completely, but I don't think I can do it in a day. My crew has offered repeatedly to trim it for me, but really not an efficient method since they would just have to ask me about each email.
I have over 60K emails in my gmails account. I keep trying to erase them but they won't go away
Ugh, I haven't even looked at my gmail, but that is mostly personal so not as crucial that I clean it out.
Down to 7589!
Go, Laura, you mail processing fool!
I need a final push. I think I have finished all the data cleanup for my year-end report. Now I just have to move into putting the numbers down on paper and getting it filed. I know there will be last minute stuff that crops up. I just wish I was already at this point this morning. But I'm at it now, so I just need to finish already. I hate this stuff.
ARGH NUMBERS WHY? LINE UP, NUMBERS!
Listen numbers, don't make me come out there....
Back to 7612 this morning. I think today I will jump into the middle of the pack instead of the most recent since it is harder to delete current stuff and I get caught up in actually dealing with the content of the email. Maybe below 7000 today?
Liese, I hope you got it figured out.
Laura, sounds like a good plan!! Maybe plow through some old ones, then set a time to deal with new ones?
NUMBERS NUMBERS NUMBERS NUMBERS.
I am at the hotel. I have the display partly set up, but tomorrow I still need to buy a few things and finish up. I've got about an hour before precon, so I have time to work some.
Speaking of numbers...writerly folk, I need help with a price to offer for doing a monthly newsletter...sample here.
I don't want to do it, necessarily, but the original deal with my friend was that I would write pieces in each newsletter that could be co-branded with the doggy lama. As you can see, she 'forgets' to add my link, or even business name.
She doesn't mean to, I know. She dislikes this task as much as I do.
At one point, she offered to pay me more if I took over the function. If I do so, I can control my image.
I just need to know what to charge.
I need a 'per package' price, because as soon as I agree to do this one, she will hand off two others, I'm sure.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts!
How many pages? How frequently? Will you come up with all the content and ideas? Do you know what you'll put in the third newsletter you do? Who's doing the layout?
