The To Do List

November 8, 2007

todo.jpg I am very good at making to do lists. Sometimes I even write items on my to do list that I have already done, just so I can cross them off (I know I’m not the only one). Last week I got home from a particularly long week away. Work, appointments and other obligations had me in the city until Wednesday. When I got home, I was so happy to see my desk at the window, so I sat and looked out the window and made a list. #1: figure out life; #2: finish application to Banff Writing Studio. Lately I have felt this pull of paid work and volunteer obligations become so heavy I feel I can’t breathe. I need to get back to writing and the manuscript. My #2 related to my #1, so I finished the Banff application, (fingers crossed!) and got back to working on an improved plan for paid work that will allow me to focus on the manuscript.
