I have this little notebook I carry around with me. I keep adding things I want to do or need to do, but don't seem to mark off very many. I don't stress over it though. Once something bugs me long enough, I'll get it done! Of course, if I don't write it down...I'll forget it! LOL! I'm only a procrastinator when it comes to things for me though. If it's a craft or project I need to complete for someone else, I will find a way to finish it. Funny how that works! Anyway, good luck on YOUR to do list. I'm sure you'll finish in good time!

(P.S. You are so sweet to not want to stress out your husband . . . I hope Jason doesn't read this!!) :) Kate @ Centsational Girl, Seriously, you are one of the people that always blows me away at how much you can get done!! I've got to learn your secret . . . ha, will you tell it to me? Please? :) ~ Liz Christy,

I am WAY impressed with your to-do-list! I guess the number one thing I've been procrasting on is MAKING my to-do-list:-). I'm hoping your list will motivate me to get moving this afternoon... doubtful, but maybe :-) Can't wait to see how the projects you listed turn out!!

I have a list too! And I soooo wish I could blog about it, but I'm afraid my husband would see it (he doesn't read my blog every day, I don't think he does anyway - I tell him when there are new pix of Fiona and then he checks them out) and I don't want to pressure him. Because I'm going on seven months pregnant and so I literally CANT do most of the things on our list. I know -- I can write it and post it here in your comments! ha! Just kidding! It sounds to me like you should tackle your list either one room at a time, or one thing at a time. Like spend a saturday hanging art work. Or going through your house to donate stuff. And then, to motivate yourself - document it all and show us in a post! I would love to see that! But selfishly I hope you tackle that armchair first, because I can't wait to see what you do to it!!!

I went back and forth over whether to publish it and finally decided that I needed that kick in the pants. :) I can only imagine that your list is long simply because you just moved into that new house! I have no doubt you'll have it conquered in a jiffy. :) ~ Liz Averill,
