Making Lists

So, these are my constant companions lately. I'm trying soooo hard to be organized...

I used to think I was a very organized person, but certain times over the past few years I have begun to realize that.....well, I'm not. I write things down on sticky notes. Lists. Many lists. I usually have a PILE of lists on sticky notes on the table by my chair. Then when I have to straighten things up for company, or a house showing, etc., I put all those sticky notes in the drawer, or in a stack of paper, or in a drawer in my studio, or in the closet in my studio, or...you get the idea. I may or may not see them again in time for them to be useful to me...

We fiiiinally have a contract on our house and will be closing the end of February. And a lot of the things that my hubby would normally be taking care of I am having to do because of what his job has going on.

So I have lists. Many lists. I'm trying so hard to keep my lists contained. And findable. I'm trying to keep my lists in this little notebook. And papers in this blue file. But, for some reason, as I sit here typing, I see that there are about a dozen sticky notes on the table beside me.

Is there any hope???? I don't suppose anyone has some magnificently perfect solution for me???

How about throwing away all your sticky note pads - then you couldn't use them - then you would have to get out your spiral notebook (or whatever). Well, it could work . . . .
