Lists

I love to make lists. I don't think I could survive without my lists. They help me keep track of what I'm doing, what I've done, where I have to go, what I need to get, what I need to bring... You get the point.
I think that making lists helps me to stay on track; without my lists I wouldn't be nearly as organized as I am.
When I make grocery lists I try to write items down - by aisle or by what they are (which turns out to be pretty much the same list)
I will give you a few sample lists of my own... feel free to copy and paste so you can print them out.

When packing for over night or extended time I write the number of days I'll be gone on the top of the page so I remember to bring the correct number of clothing etc. Feel free to add to the list or take away from it.
