Things on the list

Fullness of life with wee ones and a busy husband is requiring me to take a look at how I organize in general, from how our days are spent, to the kids' things, our things, our families collective things, and a greater scale, our house and yard. We take care to live intentionally, and in our own way live simply, and humbly. Simplicity is ever crucial as I continue to make this house our home. I had noticed that I was feeling overwhelmed with trying to make any progress on the projects around here. 

So today, I flipped to the back of my daily planner and began to make a list of projects I'd like to see completed. It's simple enough, and one that already gave me a greater clarity as to what I needed to do, and how I need to do. I think electronics serve their purpose in our modern world, and we'd be remiss to not honor that. But call me old-fashioned, I just work better than pen and paper, the old way. I have tried to use lists keeping apps and websites, but I just get scattered and I'm not personally able to utilize them the way I believe they are intended. There's just something about striking off an item on your list that feels like a accomplishment, major or otherwise. I sincerely hope this will help me, along with some other organizational ideas I have, to bring these projects to fruition.
