Hour 9: Multi-tasking during the RAT
date
newest »
newest »
I have been working at the food pantry all morning, and will be doing some housework during audiobooks this afternoon and evening. I may also finish some crocheting later tonight.
i've been doing audiobook while removing old linolium tile in my basement - I have new floors going in next week - the tile was a surprise discovery when i removed the carpet...
Surprisingly no multitasking for me this time - a lot of reading, just audio during a walk and lunch! I'm really satisfied (for now) because I wished I've read more and listened less the last Readathon in October.
I tried to get all my jobs done pre-readathon so I could spend all my time reading. I don't really listen to audiobooks very often so I don't tend to multitask when reading paperbacks.
I do papercrafts and plan on doing some of that in the middle of the night while listening to an audiobook. Trying to make it through all 24 hours. 4-8pm is always the hardest for me. Hopefully the multi-tasking will help!
I am doing laundry and a little housework on audio when I start to feel drowsy. Otherwise I am trying to read my kindle. I read faster than I am able to listen.

I havent started any multitasking yet but Ill probably put on an audio and clean a bit shortly

That's always a great thing to do with a Saturday, helping out at a food pantry!

I'm the opposite since I'm dyslexic, I listen faster than I read!
