Rewarding accomplishment

1. Make a list

2. Check it twice

3. Cross out items as they are accomplished

Isn't that the order it's supposed to go? I find I make the lists, and upon checking it, I always add more to it... but then… what do I have, a list with a bunch of chores written on it. I never seem to get to the crossing out part. Or, if I do accomplish things, I don't go back to get the satisfaction of seeing the list get smaller. And worse, I know where to go back to get old lists that are stacked up, and check those to see which ones I still need to attend to. So I've pretty much defeated the purpose of "the list", and one would think that after a certain amount of trying the same thing over and expecting different results, I might learn that I am not a good lister and stop making the dang things.

4. Look up in thesaurus an acceptable alternative for "lister".

Well, pardon me while I take my leave this morning, I have lots of things to do.
