Monday = List Day



For most people they dread Mondays. The weekend is over and back to work. However, I enjoy my Monday mornings. I sit down with my coffee and prepare the Weekly List. As a side note, I love lists. There isn't a day that goes by that I am not making a new list, adding to an already existing list or making a list of things I need lists for. I feel the overwhelming need to list a few of my lists now, but I will refrain. Although, I should mention that I am making a mental list of all my lists. Back to the Weekly List. Take a look around the house. Is there anything that really needs to be cleaned or repaired? Something that needs to be tended to, but doesn't HAVE to be done right away? Is there a craft project that you have wanted to start but keep putting off? Do you have specific errands that need to be done, doctors appointments, hair appointments, shopping for a birthday present or trip to the post office? It all goes on the Weekly List. Once you have completed your task mark it off the list. There is nothing more gratifiying that taking your pen and drawing a thin black line through the words on your paper. If something didn't get finished that week don't fret just move it on to the next week's list.



My Weekly List so far: bank to deposit FRG funds, Markiea's sewing machine, grocery store, mow back yard, spray paint flower pots, re-pot coleus, Lowe's for potting soil and plant food.



So sit down with your favorite beverage, get a pretty notebook and a nice pen and Happy Listing!

  3. Here's to you my fellow list maker! I love that I am not the only one that makes lists of lists. Maybe I got that from you. Do you ever redo your already made list though, just because you enjoy list making?

  4. You girls are so much like your Nene. I love it. I also make list, specially when it comes to cooking a BIG meal. Grocery list then make a list of what you will do on that day and like you said, the satisfaction of marking it off. I guess it just comes natural, hehe....Aunt Faye
