The plan

So, I'm a girl that likes lists. In fact, I like lists so much that whenever I go to visit my mom the first thing we do when I get to her place is make some tea, and sit down at the kitchen table to make a list of what we want to do while I'm in town. Sometimes the lists are basic: what we want to eat, what we want to play, where we want to go. Other times, the lists are very detailed: Date, time of day, what needs to be done to achieve the list item (ex: if its a meal, a grocery list), prioritization (must do vs. would like to do if there is time).

To stay true to myself, I've decided that I need to make a list of the types of things I'd like to include in this blog. Comment if you think my list is missing something.

Hmm, not my finest list. The organization is lacking. I think that I will let the imperfection slide on this one. However, it helped me think through what I actually want to have on this blog.

Love those lists! I find if you don't plan ahead then most often you don't do much cause you wait til the day and then try to find something to do and then you have to get ready and then the day is half over. AND if feels so good to cross things off the list. I'm not saying you have to be entirely structured but a list helps get you going and gives you a direction.

How about including things to do that are FREE on your blog - or somehow mark when things are free.
