Ugh - I'm tired just looking at everything you have to do. But - I'm glad you're scheduling a nap everyday!! :)

Oh look, I didn't get my siggie changed. It's still on my list. :)
 
I really need to do this....I'm a list maker too.

Oh - and I also love that you included a nap every day :) That's awesome!
 
I need to restart my year already as I'm so behind on my lists-of-things-to-do and add to that my mojo is fluctuating with the weather....

I may just have to sit back for a while and admire how organised you are Neenee.
 
I'd love to hear how you all keep track of your To Do Lists - not just today's stuff, but things to do in the week, month, sometime in the future etc. I am taking a new approach this month and seeing how it works out.

I have a Weekly planner with monthly sections. I am using a small moleskine for my daily to do's with a section for "future". My "this month" list goes on the monthly tab in 2 sections - Personal or Family.

Anyway, here's my list for today. I am also only my MUST dos so it's a shorter (easier to do) list :)

* Check online acct & print bill checklist
* Laundry - 2 loads (baby & mine)
* DH - uniforms - get ready Thurs-Sun
* Read Benefits forms (from work)
* Print SSD challenge tracker

Thursday
* Leave work by 10:30am
* pick up dozen eggs & camera @ home prior to going to Preschool
* Preschool Luncheon @ 11am
* pick up DS1 at 11:50am
* DS1 playdate - 12-12:50pm

Totally have to get the nap in. I have fibro and I have learned that if I don't get the nap in...even days when I "think" I can manage without one that I pay for it later.

This is the ONLY way I accomplish anything is with my lists. I used to use Motivated Moms but, wound up revising it lots to meet my life and chores a few years ago. I have added in a meal planner section, a week at a glance family calendar, a place for my family to scribble notes back and forth (that is big in our house), a place for me to make notes and a quote of the day. I am going to (one day...soon I hope) put my calendar/planner into a format for others to use cuz I have to admit...it rocks....but, I just another one of me to get it done! LOL
 
Monday: design something for release on Saturday
Tuesday: Kaylee to preschool, design something for release on Saturday
Wednesday: Kaylee to speech, Kristen to Brownies
Thursday: Kaylee to preschool, groceries, doctors app't
Friday: set up blog post & newsletter for Saturday, create freebie for newsletter?

I use a program called Things on my Mac. It's loosely based on the concepts of David Allen's Getting Things Done system but it's nice because it's flexible enough that I can easily adapt it to my unstructured, non-business world life. I don't always keep up with using it but when I do I feel 1000x more productive and organized.

Here's my list for today:
Post today's Gallery Standouts - done
Talk to hubby online - done
Haircut & color - done

Those were my three MITs for today so I'm feeling pretty good. :D I think after lunch I'm going to work on putting together a big list of everything that I need/want to get done in the next few months before DH gets back. I've been meaning to do it for weeks but this is the first chance I've had.

As far as the rest of the week, tomorrow I'm supposed to help a friend move and Thursday I have a 5-hour reintegration workshop for spouses on the military base. Everything else will likely depend on the list I put together today.

I've been looking for a good To-Do program for Mac. This looks really great! I wonder how much DH will miss that $50? J/K. I'll just work on the free version for a bit until I know I can't live without it, and then I'll hit him up for the money. :)
