The List

I am happy to report that I am surviving. Items are being crossed off my list, despite the fact that I managed to add some new things on there, too. For a while there it seemed like for every old item I crossed off, I found at least one new item to jot down.

Working from a list serves me well. It helps me to organize my thoughts and not panic. I feel capable with a list, and organized. It helps soothe my tendency to panic and completely melt down when I have too many things to accomplish. I need to make more lists.

Tonight we are going to a Christmas party and I can hardly wait. I almost never have an excuse to dress up...so when I do, I like to go all out tonight. I'm really looking forward to it. Even us moms need to feel pretty now and again...and with all the jeans and t-shirts in my life, the occasional dress up event, that really can't happen too much.
