I'm a serial list maker and I probably have been since someone first put a pen in my hand. (Or more accurately, a Crayola crayon.) I know this is true because not only am I a list maker, I'm also a hoarder, (oh, winner winner) and STILL have these lists stored away.
(Confession: These notes consist of all the boys in my class I consider "cute", what I want in my house when I grow up, and my favorite colors at the moment... Real deep stuff, of course. End confession.)
Anyway, my lists have gotten a little bit more substantial over the years. Just a little bit. And I can't function throughout the day with out a good list made with pen and paper. It's as if my brain is in constant info overload, and the only way to digest and comprehend anything new is in the form of lists. Complete sentences and grammar is totally pushing it.
One of my favorite bloggers, LOVELY INDEED, started a recent installment, "ten things." And yes, it is EXACTLY what it sounds like. She shares the lists she makes in her journal of ten random things. She is a lovely woman after my own heart, indeed. (See what I did there?)
Most recently, her list was of ten words that gross her out. And you know what, you should check it out because they weren't so obvious. MOIST WASN'T EVEN ON IT. By the way, have you read this hilarious suicide note from the word "moist"? If you haven't, you must click this and read now. (Oh, and that was probably the only appropriate time I could use the word "hilarious" and "suicide" in the same sentence. I don't know how I feel about that.)
But I digress...
Being able to completely resonate with LOVELY INDEED and her addiction to lists, I decided to share mine as well! (: Except it isn't gross words, it's my to-do list.
*Also, for all you list makers out there, is it just me, or do you also have MULTIPLE to-do lists occurring at the same time? For example. I have a list for things that must be done that day, a separate one for the month, and a separate one for things that should be done eventually. Sometimes the lists break up even further based on the role -- student, work, church, etc. Is there a better way to do this? Please do tell.
HERE IS A PEEK INTO MY LIST LIFE (+ doodles from my journal.)
