to do
- Admit to self: Your bulletproof, water-resistant 'I don't need to write this down' memory is beginning to unravel.
- Grab some paper and a pen. Let's say a sharpie.
- Take up list making. All the cool kids are doing it.
- When in doubt, go back to #1. You doofus.
- Cast blame. Meds and neurosis should top the list as likely culprits. (Look! I'm getting the hang of it. We'll call it List 2.0: The Offenders.)
- Add a reward to the Master list. It's hard to take on new habits.

7. Attach the list to your person so you will remember where it is.
And the reward - oh yeah!
But.
We have a lot to do to get the house ready for the market (sounds like it's going to be slaughtered, I digress) so I find myself thinking the same thoughts so I don't forget.
I hope this frees up whatever useful part of my brain I have left.
Time will tell.
8. Turn off the computer, and get cracking. GEEZ. lazy...
Ooh, candy! (What were we talking about?)
If you need support, please call (put that on your list).

Check.
Ohhhh I love checklists!
PS: I really DO love checklists!
Just today I found a list I had written (and lost) months ago. And it turns out all of those things eventually got done--without the list! It was a big moment.
