Well, not really. More like 17. I realized I had a lot of things that need to be worked on, and maybe even finished. But, like bills that need to be paid but are forgotten if you don't keep them in one place, I would see my projects in a sort of peripheral vision...kind of floating vaguely in my mind. Do you know what I mean? You're aware that things need to be done, but nothing in particular comes into focus.
So yesterday I made lists of what I need to finish. Putting things in lists helps my poor left brain wrap around what needs to be done. That's so my right brain can get to having fun! And trust me, I'm so right-brain dominant I could live with half my mind, LOL!
I've posted about "My Ta-Da Lists" before. I love that site. I used it to make my list yesterday. Actually, at least 17 lists...one for each project. So, for instance, under "Lavendar PJs," I listed each individual step needed to finish them.
With a list that is broken down into the smallest parts, you suddenly realize there are a lot of things that can be done and gotten out of the way rather quickly. I had already handsewn the zipper in (it's a baby sleeper), so it was just a matter of sewing it in for real. Took just a few minutes...a job that's been hanging in my closet for weeks.
I have a friend who refuses to start a new project unless an old one is finished. What is the fun of that????
BTW...all the tests from my procedure came out benign. They were looking for some virus with a weird name...something pilosis? Well, I don't have it. What I do have is the damned hiatal hernia. So I'd appreciate any info on dealing with that, because it's really, really not fun. Thanks!

From my Post about Eating out.
Oh YES!!!!
My husband buys the book every year and thoughout out courting months we saved so much money since we always had to have a chaperone with us they had to eat also if we went out!!! :-D
Never go without a coupon!!!!!!!!
A hernia is bad enough, but it could have been worse, and I thank God that it isn't. But I'll also pray that you can get some relief from it.
Like your idea about making lists of unfinished things. Wonder if that would work for me. Hmmmm.
I am so glad it is nothing too serious! My Mom was told (with hers) not to eat too big of a meal and sleep propped up a bit. I really do not know too much more that could help but I will keep a good thought and a prayer for you!
Hugs,
Sue
