Day 2 -- Worked Out Today!

Was much easier then Day 1
I was excited to get up and blog, but about what?

Coffee -- Check
List -- Check

Ok, so for the list part. I enjoy making lists. I am not as great as keeping up with them, but I am learning (after 40 years) that I enjoy Order. Intensely. On the verge of OCD My favorite saying seems to be The Cookie Won.

Have you read the book "If you Give a Mouse a Cookie". If not, you should. It would explain the list. I either begin something and then become so focused on finishing it thoroughly that it takes me twice as long. Or, the thought of all the tasks that need to be done to finish so overwhelms me that I am paralyzed.

So back to the lists. I need to have the days of the week sorted for order.

I also have a terrible memory, so the order helps me to remember that I have been doing what I should be doing. In the past this has served me well. I used to berate myself when I missed a day, my calender getting screwed up, but (see 40 years) I think I am ok to let stuff go without flushing the whole system as well as being able to forgive myself. Make sense?

Today I am picking up my daughter from her visit with her Father, head too the mall and my boyfriend will be over this morning, so shower after cat pans. (They stink)(Listing now)

So..... I think that maybe I will blog to make myself do fun things. Even if I just use the blog to LIST the things I do. I am always putting off fun things, and these past few months I have started doing fun things with my kids. Now that the holidays are over, I am certain that the temptation to hermitize will be great, so if I blog, I will have somebody to show off to.

I can be a deadly dull person. I will try to not be one this year!
