There's a few fun blog's I follow that are all about lists. Here + here. You might like them it you're a fellow list making lover. Here's a few fun ones I've found...
1. Johnny Cash's To-Do List
Reads:
Not Smoke
Kiss June
Not kiss anyone else
Cough
Pee
Eat
Not eat too much
Worry
Go see Mama
Practice piano
Notes: Not write notes
2. Leo Van Witsen
This one's not transcribed, but I loved the messy fabric swatches. Looks like something I'd do.
3. Thomas Edison's To-Do List, 1888. (Ha, this is a fave. As if he wasn't busy enough inventing electricity, lightbulbs, a film projector and motion pictures.)
Reads: "Things to do and be done"
cotton picker
new standard phonograph
hand turning phonograph
deaf apparatus
electrical piano
new expansion pyromagnetic dynamo
artificial silk
phonographic clock
marine telegraphy
chalk battery
ink for blind
I also like to keep my old list books. Why you may ask? I don't know... I guess I'm sentimental. While I'm very organized (thanks Mom!), I also hate to throwing some things away (thanks Dad!). I imagine someone finding them when I'm old, famous (com on, I know I'm not the only one who's thought that), or gone, and looking through a day in the life of me. Ha!
Cheers to organization!
