why can't i

  • blog everyday - its not hard...
  • keep up with the laundry...the more i wash, the more there is...
  • be early for everything instead of racing against the clock...
  • read a couple bible verses each day...
  • find a good book to read...i've started 4 lately but have not finished one yet....are there no good reads out there lately...you know the book everyone is talking about...ok, maybe i need to join the book club...
  • try a new recipe for dinner...i'm in a dinner rut...the same dinners week after week...
  • have a day without a to-do list...i don't think i could survive it...i'd break out in a cold sweat, pace the house, go crazy, eat everything in sight....they recently challenged people on the today show to go without a modern gaget for a week and this business man tried to give up his cell phone/blackberry/laptop/email for a week - well, he made it 40 hours which is about 39 hours longer than i could. bottom line - i like my to-do list no matter whats on it, no matter how many days i have to carry it over(thank you franklin covey for that column), no matter how many days i rewrite it ...love to cross off!
  • stay awake past 10pm...red bull/starbucks coffee/no wine with dinner - tried it all - nothing works, i still start the head bobs....
  • call my friends more often...not like i have to sit down and write a letter like in the old days...
  • spend less time surfing on the internet...what was life like before the internet...maybe we wrote more letters/talked more with friends/tried new dinner recipes/dove into a book...makes you wonder....

gotta go. i'm mailing a card to debbie today for no reason - just to write a quick hi instead of a quick email...something about a pen and a stamp today along with a couple of 4x6 pictures inside.
