List of Things, reappeared. reinvented.

Remember this?

It's my 2010 "list of things".
I came across a printed copy of the first one I made of this list (same list, just in the linked one, I have added things at #75.)

As I looked down the list, I was actually quite surprised at how many things I have done or accomplished (with or without Danny) this year that I could cross off, as well as how many things that I thought were important at the time have been, more or less, thrown to the wayside and forgotten about.

Needless to say, I got out a pen and crossed off everything I had done and what I felt was 'no longer important' or needed to be on the list anymore (re: sell plants from the greenhouse. re:re: lightening storm,......mentioned here.)

And so, because I feel like you too should feel the triumph of what 'crossing things off a 2010 list', below is my 'new' 2010 list. Some things are gone, some are added. The "new" italics are things that I am not so sure about, but are there. Situations change, so those are things that may or may not be able to happen anymore. Nevertheless, they are on the list. :)
So, friends, I encourage you too, to look back on your 'lists' and see what you have or have not done. See what's changed in your priorities. What can you add? What can you cross off? It's very fulfilling at the middle of a long, frustrating, depressing day (long story, this AM = late to class, no parking, no idea where I was parked at, what to do between classes, should I just go home, had a huge 'to do' list, don't have my books for classes ($!), very frustrating and made me almost cry this AM). to be able to cross off several things you have established and accomplished! Yay!
