The Ultimate To Do List


In response to my husband's recent difficulties with getting things done around the house I have decided to resort to the THE ULTIMATE TO DO LIST! Armed with some Crayola window markers and some "things to do" any mom or wife can create an effective list. I firmly believe that all of my troubles will now be over because Pete can't miss my honey do list!


Pete says he is going to make a list for me too. Unfortunately, this is a PG blog so I am unable to share his kinds words. I am thinking my list will be soemthing along the lines of...
Things to Do
  • Kiss my A$$
This is all in good fun! I will erase Petes list as soon as he finishes his chores immedieatly.

Ha!Ha! If I had a bathroom mirror I would do this too! As of yesterday all golf, horseshoes and planting of new trees, shrubs, etc. has been banned from my home until the bathroom is done! I've also moved all of the toiletries from the dining room to his bar room so he can't find anything at 4:00 am when he is trying to go to work. Being a spiteful wife has its advantages. LOL

Now I want to do this too! Maybe my hubby will get his to do list done as well then!

I have a metal door with a stickers/papers pressed to it with tiny magnets - with TO DO lists for both me and hubby:) our daughter grabs those papers to draw on them:)))

If this works, let me know - I would have to try it!

Babies in water are such fun! How did the carrots go down? I've had zero luck with Esme and carrots lately, though I was quite proud of all the butternut I hid in her whole wheat pancakes last night. She even snuck into the fridge this morning and grabbed a leftover one while I wasn't looking. (Since when did 14-mo-olds get in fridges by themselves?)

And the vegan joe sounds yummy. Are you vegan? My hubby tries to be, but it's tough in Mozambique with not a lot of options available, so he's pretty much given up and lets me put eggs in food as long as he can't tell they're there.

(I even have a tofu maker which has never been used because I can't find soybeans. I'll have to check if you can use it with other things like cashews, which we have an abundance of.)

My roommates and I did this at the sorority house! It was the best way to get attention drawn to the to-do list because it was scrawled LARGE across the mirror.

I hope it worked!

Much more effective than your standard Post It note or e-mail. ;)

That's awesome. Except my husband would SHOOT me if I did that.

I love it!! My husband would rather me write him a list. It drives him crazy if I keep naming things off.
