But they do get overwhelming. Lets NOT talk about the lists that I have. Okay, maybe a few. I have a list of things that need to be done before my sister gets here. I cut up the list and put them in a jar. When I'm feeling up to it or energetic, I'll pull one slip of paper from the jar and do the task on it. Otherwise, it's too overwhelming seeing the whole thing on paper. The slips of paper are all folded in fourths, so it's hardly anything at all in the jar. Less to do. :lol: I have a list of everything that is in our cupboards. The quantity, date it was bought, how much I currently have left if it's something you use a little of. Examples: Rice Pilaf, Pine Nut - Qty: 2 - 3.23.06 Flour, Whole Wheat - 2/3 of 5lb - 2.17.06 Cat Food - 1/4 of 7lb - 3.1.06 It's all on a spreadsheet. God forbid my spreadsheet should ever be compromised. It. would. be. devastating. :roll: Oh…I love lists. But they do get overwhelming. Lets NOT talk about the lists that I have. Okay, maybe a few.
