You know how we are forever making to-do lists? Wouldn’t it be nice if we actually had a record of what we needed to do? So I invite you to put your to-do lists here: I don’t think you’ll be able to lose the list as easily as you do a piece of paper, after all.

Some of those things are more like resolutions than a To-Do list…
[ol] []Laundry []Go to Surrogate court for certs. []Give certs to NYCERS. []Let cuz in with Zolt’s new bed. []Go to IRS. Spend several hours there that I’m sure will cost me much money. []Pick up Pain from babysitting gig. []Put Zolt’s new bed together. []Listen to Pain complain about Zolt getting a new bed instead of her. []Look back at all the things I didn’t get to do today that I was supposed to do. []Shrug and crack a light beer.[/ol]
go shopping because I don’t have nearly enough clothing - I can still close my closet
give SO bountiful hugs and kisses[/ul]
