The Never Ending To Do Lists

I may be the only one that will ever read this blog, but it is something that was on my to do list and now I have done it.

Speaking of to do lists, who else has was too many. My husband makes fun of me because my lists have lists. I get excited about opening up a new Excel spreadsheet and starting new lists. I have lists for today, tommorow, this weekend, this year, Eventual to do lists, wish lists, gift idea lists, dinner idea lists. I have caught myself in church making a new to do list for the few hours we are home before we go back for night church.

I have been told that you need to have small lists that won't overwhelm you, so you are more likely to get the things done. Have I employed this idea? Yes and No. I have small lists that eventually turn into long to do lists. I have to do lists that have carried on for over 6 monthes now, and now since we have found out we are having a baby, here comes more lists. Lists of what we need, what we have (nothing), boy lists, girl lists, idea lists......I could go on, but I need to go put something on my list.

Like you my list have list. I have book list, project's I want to do list. I could go on and on. Each morning when I get up I make a small list of the most important things that need to be done for the day. Then cross them off as I go. As I sit her blogging, reading blogs. I am making a weekend to do list! I love List.

Welcome to the world of blogging. It is a great way to journal, and share with family.
