The Real "To Do" List

Is anyone else a task master monster like me?  Just this week I had a panic feeling that went something like this...Summer is already here, there's so much to do, and I haven't even started my "to do" list!  OH MY!  Today I saw these lovely bricks on a walk and felt them God gently speaking to me.  Then I stumbled across this sweet little list called The Real "To Do" List.  I am taking a deep breath and think I'll start here for now.

The Real To-Do List:
1.   Sing
2.   Smile at Strangers
3    Keep Learning
4.   Notice Kindness
5....Eat ice cream
6.   Hope
7.   Count your blessings
8.   Laugh
9.   Love
10. Love some more

    This really is the "Real" list! I need to print this off and tape it to my fridge. Sometimes it's hard to let go of some of the things we feel we must do and just be.

    I like your to-do list a whole lot more than I like mine. Guess I'd better adjust some things. :)

    God speaks to us in so many ways. I love that you found Him today in the stepping stones. (at first, I wondered if they were yours, and we are looking for stepping stones for our garden and i was going to say, where did you find those!!!) what a perfect list that is. maybe number 11 could be "always always priase God." :) I find that when I take the time to thank the Lord for all the little things that come my way each day -- good and not so good -- my days goes much smoother.

    thanks for sharing, your post spoke to me. I was just thinking of my summer to do list. I will print out this list and display it my home. Thanks for sharing.

    I just notice there is no number 5 on the list.

    I like this! I am a list maker... always have been. I think that is good, especially with homeschooling and a large family... however, it is good to know when to let go. I'm getting better at that with age! +JMJ+

    *sigh*
    Thanks Tiffany! I really needed that too.
    This time of year I am knee deep in finishing school, reporting and purchasing and planning curriculum for next year. It can get very overwhelming very fast and before I know it the summer is half over!
    I am printing this and placing it on my fridge too :D
