Lists Make Me So happy!
The beauty of a list! I’ve been inspired by you all to restart my list writing habit. Last night I sat down and made a master To-Do list. Jeremy’s leaving Wednesday for the Grand Canyon for a week. It’s the perfect opportunity to be really productive. My nights are all my own. It’s tempting to keep Kaitlin up from her nap so she’ll go to bed by 6:00, but then I’d lose my two hour block of free time during the middle of the day. Anyway, I thought I’d share my list. Here it is.
Phone calls to make:
1. Michael—ask about his digi camera and ask for photos
2. SL Tribune—cancel daily delivery, continue weekend only
3. Dr. Hafen—schedule K’s 2 year old Well Child Checkup
Household Jobs
1. Laundry—light wash, my sheets, guest room sheets, K’s clothes, down throws, towels—and put it away PROMPTLY!!!
2. Make guest room bed.
3. Change K’s sheets
4. Organize holiday decorations and put away
5. Put canned foods into rotating shelves. Make shopping list for more.
6. Plan menu and shop for ingredients
7. Cook and freeze dinners
8. Clean up craft room
9. Gather Jenna’s kid’s toys and return
10. Ask Jenna and Raul what they want to do with extra fridge
11. Take care of HOA payment and set up autopay.
12. Put tools away in garage and sweep floor
13. Vacuum car and wash inside windows
Misc. and Fun Stuff
1. Type up recipes
2. Buy new bras (pregnancy!)
3. Take Kaitlin to Farm Country at Thanksgiving Point on Saturday (if weather’s good)
4. Get enlargements made of K’s portraits for Pottery Barn frames
5. Buy February and March knives
6. Drop off DI donations
7. Finish Book Cllub “Christmas” presents
8. Write letters to Nicki, Nikki, and Erin
9. Order pink hanging files from The Container Store
10. Buy maternity workout clothes
11. Get Kaitlin’s bangs cut
Kaitlin’s been getting up at 6:00 AM so this morning I got a good start on the List. And my afternoon Visiting Teaching appointment just called to cancel. She’s an 82 year old lady who’s not feeling well. I’ll have to call her later to see how she’s doing, but it did free up the rest of my day. Can’t wait to see what I can do the rest of the day!

That's quite a list. I have no doubt that you can accomplish most (if not all) of it because you work like a machine when you're into something. There's nothing quite as satisfying as a well-used used list.
Is this seriously a list for just one week? There's no way I would be able to get all that done in such a short time. Quite impressive.
