We've got new SmartPhones. I was hoping to consolidate calendars with my husband and rely on the phones only......BUT I have a resistance to getting rid of paper. (I've always been a list maker, journaler, etc.) I think I'm trying to hang on to what I consider to be tangible or permanence. I will spend some time trying to get inside my head and come to a decision and then try to live with it.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08740950362293427086noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-3575961883291337932013-01-02T12:35:30.379-05:002013-01-02T12:35:30.379-05:00I write lists all the time.

Still thinking, here.<br /><br />Enjoy Christmas as long as you can.

I did a to-do list by hand one day in early summer, had 28 things on it!! I got down to 8! Then added a few more. Then it went into hiding and I fell behind. Time to make a new list. I love the feeling of satisfaction I get when I cross an item off. xoBarbara F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05650730931602700042noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-82213827340243192572013-01-02T12:13:34.962-05:002013-01-02T12:13:34.962-05:00Cheryl!

Christmas STARTS on the 25th, but it goes until the feast of The Baptism of the Lord, Jan 13th!! Jan 6th is just reaching Epiphany!! Which is when a lot of the world does presents, BTW. Don't end Christmas when it's just getting started!!Tammy Schillingnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-52016934556442988742013-01-02T11:01:55.127-05:002013-01-02T11:01:55.127-05:00I'll be watching this post's comments for ...I'll be watching this post's comments for some good advice!<br /><br />So far, I'm working on de-cluttering our home, our schedule, and my brain so there's a place for everything that truly needs to be there. And focusing on home as a priority. Maybe the organizing will fall into place?<br /><br />Good luck! We should form a support group!<br /><br />Kim :-)Kim at Thistle Dewhttp://thistledewblog.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-35083504748358200892013-01-02T10:32:17.840-05:002013-01-02T10:32:17.840-05:00And here I am catching her in a lie!

I think...And here I am catching her in a lie! LOL!<br /><br />I think we do similar things, Cheryl, except for the list thing. I only do that for the big times. I think with a family as large as yours, I'd probably do well to make a list, too. I did create a 2013 list yesterday following Susan Branch's advice and then yours...when I arrived at 15, I quit. I could have gone on and on.Veehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00618654361869856894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6596988245744679027.post-27076072915500538942013-01-02T10:23:10.628-05:002013-01-02T10:23:10.628-05:00Cheryl, I just left Vee's announcing that I n...Cheryl, I just left Vee's announcing that I needed to get some chores done today but decided to make one last check on my blog list, saw you had posted, I just had to stop by. I am a list maker too, and I have a note book where goals are set for the new year, and just love to take that pen and mark them done. Our list for the new year is quite long, and I am looking forward to starting them,(notice i said starting). lol. Our tree is still up and I am trying to hang on a little while longer.<br />Thanks for the link.<br />Enjoy your day and your get together this Sunday.<br />Hugs,<br />SueSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14843762646877115013noreply@blogger.com
