What’s on your to do list for the day?! I thrive on to do lists. Don’t we all love lists?! I understand they're not for everyone, but they work great for me. I'd even say I get a little obsessive! Yet, every time I go to make one, I feel like there are common items I have missed.

So what's your current to do list looking like? My hope is that by sharing our tasks, we can remind each other about things we may have overlooked.

    i just bought one of that salvador dali melting clock from the persistence of memory.
    figure if i can get it done eventually i'll glue/frame it and hang it up.

    and at the very least if i never finish it then i got the mat to roll it up in for safekeeping as it mocks me.

    While reading the OP I decided to play along.
    The manner in which I have my livelihood is by trading calendar spreads on the last trading day of the week at 1:00 pm Central US time.

    The time was 1:27 p.m.

    Thank you OP for the reminder.

    Today I had a huge list of work stuff and got it all done.
    Did a few crossword puzzles
    Cleaned the kitchen after my husband made dinner
    Prepared coconut matcha chia pudding for breakfast tomorrow
    Now planning to read after I brush & floss

    Not a very exciting list. Most of mine are work-related or household chores, and I spent hours cleaning yesterday so I don't have anything on my home to do list except cleaning ceiling fans.
