the inevitable to-do list

i saw a clip somewhere about getting rid of your to-do list.  now i'm a HUGE fan of lists. i list everything, its the one way lately i keep track of life.  however, sometimes the to-do list does get neglected, but more often than not its followed to the letter. 

laterly our "life" to-do list just keeps growing wiht things we would like to take care of at some point. i stress "some point" because there is not a timetable for some of these things, but others there are. 

i have a mental list going on right now of things that i have needed to take care of for ages but have never gotten around to do.  the last 9 months of our life has really changed and i'm still adapting everyday to the in's and out's of it. 

with all the "to-do" i realize that sometimes its not that you cannot get a task accomplished, its simply that time has slipped away.  where the hell did summer go?  what, school has started?  it all goes by so fast and it seems when you add a child to the mix of life, time just does 'double time'. 

well here is my list for the weekend: 

date with husband
mow yards
rearrange home office
spend sunday in pj's, make lovely breakfast around noon
teach the kid to play sesame street monopoly

relax, love, smile, giggle, laugh, hug, kiss, sleep, nap....

QotD: The Best Way To Reach Me

What's your favorite way to keep in touch? Phone, snail mail, email, text message, Vox, _____ ?

well since the advent of the internet and my turn to geekdom, i would say email or IM. I hate texting, takes me forever for some reason, and i can only stand a few people to talk to on the phone.  i used to talk on the phone all the time, then i became a geek and now loathe it!  but nothing tops a letter in the post from a friend.

coming around

around here things have been insane and i have barely a moment to formulate a decent thought.. but i am reading as often as I can so do not abandon me just yet! =)

QotD: Here Comes The Bride

What was the last wedding you went to?  Were you in the wedding?

July 2006 - my younger brother, Patrick and nope, I wasn't in the wedding.

alive and kicking

I am still very much alive and kicking, the only downside to life right now is that it is very BUSY.  my busy rush has started at my work, our daugther is about to start school so that is hectic getting everything taken care of (but we love it!), and my husband has been busy as well.  its just go-go-go so much so that so many things have taken a back seat - this new blog for example. 

but i will try to write when something springs to mind, however it may not be until later in the month until i return more normally. i will try to keep reading everyone's posts as well.

be good to each other.

QotD: Can you hear me now?

What's your cell phone's ringtone? What made you pick it?

It's pretty lame, its one of the normal ones on my motorola phone.  i can have fancy mp3 ones, but you know what - all i'd think is i was hearing a radio. a phone should sound like aphone and i hate those annoying ass ringtones.  although i do chuckle when i call my husband and he hear's ac/dc's "hell's bells".  some guy asked him one day - whose ringtone is that and my husband said "my wife".
