To Do lists


I have a large to do list at home. It is actually a notebook and contains things like "pay camp fees, fix button on shorts, choose shower for en suite"etc. I keep it handy for the bloke to find in case he has a spare moment and is at a loss what to do ( a rare occurrence). I've crossed a few long standing ones off the list lately, which is a good feeling. But I've also been thinking about my personal to do list. Things that don't have to do with the house or the kids or the bloke. If I publish it here, maybe alot will get crossed off it this year.
  1. Return phone calls the day that people ring, or no later than the following day.
  2. Bake more, buy less.
  3. Plant nursery purchases the day that I buy them, not a week later.
  4. Don't plant vegetables that I or the family don't like.
  5. Ride down the shops instead of taking the car.
  6. Make stuff to cut through the fabric stash.
  7. Stop buying fabric.
  8. Put a shopping cart on the website.
  9. Update the website.
  10. Send regular newsletter to website subscribers.
  11. Try to wear every item in my wardrobe at least once this year.
  12. Stop telling my kids to clean up their rooms before I turn out the lights at night. Just kiss them and tell them I love them.
  13. Have regular visits to the hairdresser. (By regular I mean less than every 3-6 months.)
  14. Have regular visits to the massage therapist.
  15. Resist the urge to buy something on the spur of the moment.
  16. Clear the pile of not hung photos and artworks.
  17. Keep my drawing desk tidy.
  18. Eat a proper lunch.
  19. Read more books, less blogs.
  20. Get passionate about something again.
I will try to keep this list updated and may add to it in the future.
