You all know about the Dreaded To Do List. What you may not know is that despite putting new projects on the list every 2 weeks I am still catching up at an amazing rate. My 2-page typed list is done to 1/2 of a page. Woo Hoo! It has required some serious dedication to accomplish all these things and I am really proud of myself. Would you like to read the story of the DTDL? It is here . . . http://inmyworld-pam.blogspot.ca/2011/10/tale-of-dreaded-to-do-list-and-why-is.html
