I love making lists. Grocery lists. Cleaning lists. Lists for Christmas presents, birthday presents, and birthday parties. General to-do lists. Crafting to-do. Journalling. Teaching ideas. Organizing. Lists about music. Lists about places to go and people to see.
Sometimes I add things to my lists that I've already completed so that I can cross it off and feel accomplished!
Yesterday I made a to-do list while J and I had breakfast. Throughout the day, in true Yvonne fashion, I added things to my lists that I completed but were not originally on my list. By the end of the day, here is what it looked like:
✔ - clean kitchen
✔ - prepare for dinner
- vacuum downstairs
- vacuum upstairs
- wash kitchen floor
- clean bathroom
- wash bathroom floor
✔ - health and safety training
✔ - wrap Sue/Sandy's gifts
✔ - fold laundry
✔ - hang diapers to dry
✔ - wrap Agnes' present
✔ - tidy bedroom
✔ - run/shower
✔ - write blog post
✔ - package cookies
(Usually I meticulously scribble out each item as I complete it - yesterday I wanted my husband to see all the things I was able to finish...so silly!)
If I have the choice, that always gets left out.
I'll try again today.
It's just that housecleaning and I don't get along so well. Playing with J, making crafts, baking cookies, and playing the piano are always more interesting! I did clean the toilet however. I felt quite accomplished after that!
Right now Baby J is pulling all of his books off the shelve and inspecting them one by one. Oh, how I love this child! He also has a booger hanging from his nose. Delicious.
Happy Friday!! I'm off to wipe boogers and read books.
