I'm not sure how everybody else gets their work lined up for the day, or for the week, but I LIVE by lists!!!  If it wasn't for my list of "things to do today", I don't know if I'd get anything done - don't remember much except ......OH! That's right - I should have been working on this project, or doing that job.

I've been doing the "list" thing since the kids were little!  When they got home from school there was a list for each one of them of chores to do, or something extra that I needed for that particular child to do.  The lists weren't very long - maybe one or two jobs, but they had to be done before I got home from work.  Boy did they hate that!!!  Even worse was when I got home and checked each list and checked the job they were supposed to do!

Now that I'm doing some extra work assignments for our websites and that special project for Sew News Magazine, plus pattern making classes that have been requested, plus sewing for the grandbabies and customers, I truly would be LOST without my list of stuff to do each day.    In order to get the amount of work done that I have to do, I feel like every minute counts, and I LOVE crossing items off that list as I finish them.

Oh yes! Speaking of finishing something on the list ---- I'm very happy to say that I now have Pattern Making For SKINNY Boys online - it looks great, and I'm already using information for some pants for little Zachary that will actually fit around his tiny waist AND be long enough as well.

I know most of you are just as busy, or busier, than I am, so I'd love to hear how you get everything done -- without forgetting some of the important stuff!
