to do list

Just in the shower, I was thinking over what I needed to get done. Suddenly didn't want to get out of the shower, preferring instead to stand in that warm, steamy, glass protection away from stress. Silly. I like having a lot to do- sometimes it just gets so scattered, that the wrong stuff gets done... or nothing at all. Thought maybe I'd make a list here and find some organization.

There's more and I might add as I remember- handy to have online. Most for this week but things that take only a little time. The most important that aren't listed: breathe, spend time with J, sit in the sun, take the long way home.

Just had to highlight the finished ones. Does that count as OCD?
