Loving Lists
I love lists. I have lists of home improvement projects that detail every minor step and tool that is needed to accomplish the task. Attached by magnets to the refrigerator are lists that let the children know what chores need to be done and how much they can earn by completing the chore in a satisfactory fashion. I keep a small spiral notepad in my purse for jotting down items that I need the next time I am at the store. There is a monthly budget that lists my prioritized expenditures. Some lists outline my time management and money management goals while others are for organizing items. Lists make me feel good.
I just counted three lists in my purse! 
A list is simple. A piece of paper and a pen. No need for more or less. It is the most inexpensive organizing tool that you can invest in. It feels great to cross off completed tasks. It is reassuring to know that my ideas are written down and I don’t have to challenge my ever depleting memory. Over time I will add my thoughts on what lists are the most productive and how to efficiently use lists to make life easier, but for now…one more thing to mark off of my to-do list!
