todo list from hell

By on April 23, 2007

This is what our ToDo list looked like at the beginning of our weekend:

  • move futon
  • clean floors
  • taxes
  • rearrange our bedroom
  • deck stuff


Yes, I actually write out a ToDo list and post it on the fridge in hopes that we might just accomplish one or more tasks.

Yes, I am delusional.

What our ToDo list should have included:

  • move futon
  • go to ER
  • contract pneumonia
  • reflect on why our family has been punished with illness for over four weeks

Because that would have been the ToDo list we completed.

    oh my god! are you guys ok now? don’t push yourself too hard – that to do list seems ambitious for someone recovering from pneumonia.

    p.s. i have been at the doctor every other day for 2 weeks waiting to see if my cough was turning into pneumonia (which i’ve had twice). luckily it subsided.

    Pneumonia! You must do everything 100% huh?

    Number one on your list better be to get better. You must rest woman!
    May I recommend lounging on your deck.

    I’m sorry your actual list made me laugh.
    Why are you suffering so?
    Yet you still managed to move the futon. Amazing.

    You have been through a lot lately! Hope you recover soon.

    I too write todo lists…they however usually end up at the bottom of a pile of paperwork, lost until a few weeks later…when i’m reminded of all the things I’ve forgotten to do!

    funny that my wife commented but didn’t say anything about us having to do our taxes as well…

    i guess we don’t need the money. (HA!)

    if we had a to do list on the fridge Strawberry would have taken one of the kithcen chairs to thief the magnet that was holding the list in place.
