T for Thailand is what I wanted
to write,
As I reminisced the days of yore,
A set of papers caught my sight,
It was my to do list, with tasks
galore.
Grocery to buy, bills to pay and shelves
to clear,
Proposals to make and deadlines
to meet,
Calls long overdue to near and
dear,
As is a massage for my aching
feet.
I haven’t watched a movie in ages,
On the A-Z challenge, I lag
behind,
My to do list is just short of
two pages.
It seems like the list has its
own mind!
I cross of an entry for very task
I complete,
But it gets magically replaced by
another one,
Like an endless pit with tasks
replete,
I realize this to do list will
never get completely done!
They say we waste more time procrastinating than if we just did the things we were procrastinating over. I think it's because of the mental energy we expend each day thinking about all the things on our to-do lists! I've started reading so many new blogs, I can't wait to see what everyone writes about once this challenge is over.
ReplyDeleteHaha - this is the fate of every to-do list! Your post reminded of this article: http://time.com/48975/overwhelmed-time-management-ill-finish-the-dishes-when-im-dead/
ReplyDelete:D :D I liked that!
ReplyDeleteLove it...and I'm a list maker so I totally get it...I just don't like when my list gets longer and longer!
ReplyDeleteAlways happens to me! My to do lists never end; they actually seem to multiply.
