lists

Are you a list type of person? I am. I have to make a list when I go grocery shopping, otherwise I'll forget to get something. I have to list out what dishes I'm making for dinner each week. I have little squares of paper that are my "to do" lists. I have scrapbook layout "to do" lists with a sketch of something I want to put together. I make lists for our Christmas cards each year. And yes, I already have a list of people to invite to our wedding that will hopefully happen within the next hundred years.

I digress. It's Thursday.

So this morning I opened an email with the subject line of "lists" and it was a reply from my boyfriend's brother from something I sent to him back in June of 2005. Yes, like nine months ago! LOL Anyway, thought it would be fun to post it here.
