My list habit collides with my obsession to organize …

I am a list maker.  I make lists and I make “sub-lists” .  I get made fun of often by my husband, by my friend. But I also have my friendly supportive fellow lister  (you know who you are )  Well I have so much going on right now on a daily basis and so much I want to accomplish both long term and short term that I am afraid I will forget something.  This has me making many many lists. Now I have stacks of paper. Uh oh ! This has kicked in the organizer in me. She is buried much of the time under mess and stress but she tries !  So  I decided I had to get some organization of my lists or regardless of everything being “listed” things would still fall through the cracks. I went to my jumble of project stuff and found a binder and my scrapbook supplies.  This is the end result

So far I only have 2 categories

clean

and

projects

But I am sure I can come up with more as life goes on !  Now I have my lists in one place all neat and organized . I have now really opened myself up to the teasing since I have so many lists I need a binder for them. However my fellow lister  understands the need for it, loves it and wants one.  I just may have to make her one !

 Peace,

 Steph
