Great List. #8 is sooo important! We try to always make time.

I'm another list maker. The problem is I forget where I put them and have to make another one. Maybe I need a list to keep track of my lists.
Happy TT.

Fantastic list! I'm with you on the books and I would love to see the first showing of New Moon (it just requires everyone behaving and staying healthy - they're not good at this).

Love your list - you'll have to tell me how Ali's class goes. Head on over to my blog today for a chance to win a Rachael Ray soup pot.

If I could make a scrapbook page as lovely as the one below this post, I'd switch to digital, too. Wow. And I'm glad you write book release dates down -- on behalf of authors everywhere, thank you! (I hope you buy them, too!)

love your 13 and the whole trying to find balance thing. I used to make lists, should get back to it, I always got more done with a list. I think I started blogging in 05 too - has it been that long!

I always enjoy your lists...I never leave without finding another thing we have in common. The need to find balance, the list making...all me as well. Hope you have a wonderful weekend, my friend! Off to check out Ali Edward's info. xoxo L
