		<description>Thanks, Yira. And now, especially at this time of year -- the newness of it and all -- people get serious about making those lists. At least for a month or so. I agree with you -- checking things off means we accomplished something we planned to do. I love that feeling...</description>

		<description>WOW I love your blog.  You some amazing stuff here.  This post in particular is close to my heart right now.  I have spend a lot of time thinking about what I need to do and when I write myself a list at the beginning of the day, it feels great to check things off at the end of the day.  What a boost!!  So glad I found you on Lance&#039;s blog.</description>

		<description>Thank you so much, &lt;strong&gt;Bean&lt;/strong&gt;. I&#039;ve signed up for your Twitter class because I miss being mentored by you, my friend. You are one of a handful of online friend/guru/mentors that I hold dear.

That you stopped by warms me. Thanks.</description>

		<description>So glad that you are back, I was so worried. I tried emailing several times to check on you. 
You were definitely missed!</description>

		<description>Hi &lt;strong&gt;Carol&lt;/strong&gt;. I appreciate your comments. I live with a man -- 46 years and counting and loving every year of it -- who could not entertain &quot;just letting the day happen.&quot; Though sometimes it does just that, serendipitously, if that&#039;s a word. (We don&#039;t do TV except me -- NCIS and The Good Wife and Leverage and now White Collar. But it&#039;s never part of our days.) Life is good. We&#039;re both healthy and still eager to explore. So I guess we do some of both. Check the ToDo list for what we must do and sometimes put it away just to go have a coffee date together. And read. And share. 

What we both do is count each day precious.</description>

		<description>I have really missed your posts. I hope you were well.
You always give me some thinking exercise.

My spouse of 48 years still expects to have an agenda for the day upon awakening. Some days I just want to let the day happen.  Somehow we still live together. :)

		<description>Hi &lt;strong&gt;Valerie&lt;/strong&gt;. I just left your blog post The Old Balloon Man and am amazed at what is being painted in such small spaces. The iTouch screen is, I suppose, the size of the Art Trading Cards (ATC&#039;s) but to actually paint with your fingers such complicated works as I saw on the Flikr sites blows me away. I&#039;m awed!

Of course I will visit you -- whatever you write, short or not, is worth reading. :)

I sometimes just write a ToDo list in my journal. So if I&#039;m ever tempted to panic for lack of one, I can always flip through and find what it was I wanted to have done. Hence, no boredom. Ever. :)

Thanks for stopping by, my friend.

		<description>Lovely to see you back, Barb! I missed those cups of coffee and chats that set me thinking!

I decided to make my blog a &#039;niche&#039; blog giving news, tips and examples of finger painting on the iphone or ipod touch. Even so, I hope you&#039;ll still visit it sometimes. Mostly I feed it now from the paintings I post on Flickr, and fewer words. I find that enormously less stressful, as although I have been a professional writer, I don&#039;t take to writing easily and much prefer drawing. 

That makes my &#039;To Do&#039; list a lot less of a burden too. I didn&#039;t have a Plan and Do book like you, but we all had to make To Do lists at boarding school, and I&#039;ve kept one ever since. Sometimes I think it&#039;s a good thing, sometimes not.

		<description>Thanks, &lt;strong&gt;Karol Grace&lt;/strong&gt;. I&#039;m glad to be back and have some fun plans in the works. Life is good.

Hi &lt;strong&gt;Terro&lt;/strong&gt;. Your morning thoughts mimic my own, not in the actual activities, but in the process. I also am never at a loss -- boredom is not in my vocab. Disorganization pesters me though. (Perhaps I should disavow it. I ALWAYS find a parking place. A good one. I expect to. That should be its own lesson to me, don&#039;t you think?) 

Thanks for your comments. :)

		<description>What a bright note to find your blog in my inbox this morning! 

And I had lain in bed earlier mulling over what I wanted to do today. The &quot;have to&quot; stuff I remember, but I need to remind (or push??) myself to pick up the Spanish lessons I&#039;m self-teaching and to practice some hymns for our small church on Sunday (so, as a still novice player,  I don&#039;t panic on Saturday). 

I do make lists too...and never get to the end of them, but without some kind of planning, I find myself drifting and not accomplishing what I&#039;d like to. Still, happily, I&#039;m rarely at a loss for things to do!
