To Do

I have a horrible memory. I have to make a to-do list every single day or I'll forget even the obvious things. Today, I need to go to the bank...I have needed to do this for 2 weeks but kept forgetting to add it to the list...see what I mean? I have a pile of laundry to do, a room to paint, groceries to buy and I need to take a short nap at some point or I wont make it through my shift...5pm-1am. I put little things on my to-do list, like make beds, which is something I do before I even come downstairs in the morning, or eat dinner, just so I can cross things off and have that feeling of accomplishment. Yeah, I'm a loser.

I managed to check a few things off of my to do list today. The sun was shining so I added a few things to the list before heading outside, like, Lie in the sun for an hour, and Play with squirt guns. I didnt get to the laundry, or do any painting, or get any groceries...but I played with the kids and got a bit of a suntan. Some things are just more important than chores. I just offered to stay at work til 4am...sure wish I had checked 'take a nap' off the list today. Oh well, I'll just put it on tomorrows list and hope for rain.

I do that too... put something on my list that I *know* I will do so I can cross it off!
