    I hear that a lot. People are always asking me what my secret is to getting so much done. It's not much of a secret ( and deffinitely not one I'd wish on anyone else). I've got insomnia, so I rarely sleep. I have ADHD, so I can't deal with being bored & always have to have something to do (usually multiple things at one time). And I'm a bit of a perfectionist with some OCD tendencies, so I'm very detail-oriented. When you're driven to be busy during all waking hours & rarely ever sleep more than 3-4 hours a night (usually broken sleep), you tend to get a lot done.

    Can I steal all your links and work them into my blog thing I'm working on.. when I have time to work on it? I'm trying to do something that organizes them, plus tells what you will find at each site.

    Sommer,
    Yeah, go ahead. For some of them I do try to write what's there. But there's so many of them!! :eek: That's why I group them by subject, topic, sub-topic if needed.

    Dolphin,
    Nope I'm a Taurus. So ontop of everything else, I'm very stubborn & refuse to give up on anything! :lol:
    I don't think hubbardscupboard.org was on my pre-k - k list. I'll have to check that one out. Thanks!

    I'll be working on those soon. Right now I'm reorganizing and checking all the links in my favorites (that is fairly time-consuming). If the links aren't already in a pdf list, I'm putting them in one as I check each folder. I'll get to social studies in the next day or two. I've also got music, art, foreign lang., language & lit (language arts, whatever you want to call it), home ec., general research, adult education, and probably some others. And that's just in my school folder. That's not counting the kids, games, freebies, shopping, or any of the other folders. I think I'll be working on reorganizing them for a while. I'm doing the school ones first, since I'm posting those here. my dh is scared to go into my faves. He does it a few times a week & sticks to 2 maybe 3 folders. I told him I was only going to be making changes to one of the folders he goes into (my shopping folder). He seems ok with it now. He just thinks that I'm too organized.
