Lists

After tonight, we'll have had 9 showings in two weeks! I am amazed that we've had that many, but we do have a great agent! I'd recommend him to anyone! He does so much for us I feel almost like we're his only client, but I know he is really busy.

I just wanted to talk about my fascination with list-making. I am a list-maker in general, but with everything going on, I have to make lists to survive with my sanity. I have a Palm Pilot that I call my brain. I have to check it to make sure that I can do anything when I'm asked. I also keep a detailed list of all the things I need to do daily and when we are going to have a showing. I just can't keep it all in my head.

Somehow, making a list of the things I need to do makes me feel in control of the situation. I can also accomplish more in less time, since I don't have to think about all the details so much. I also love the feeling I get when I put a check mark or line through each thing I need to do. It feels like order and harmony are restored...okay, so that may be taking it too far, but I really feel organized when I have a list to follow!
