Do you remember in school the option for a grade or remark "incomplete?" I do, but I never received one. Every day I make a "to do" list - both personally and professionally. I have a template for the daily one at the office, and I have made personalized ones for every staff member. Every person is supposed to fill it out the day before to have for the first thing the next morning. Yet every day I leave without getting through my list. So, it builds...and builds.
When I get home, the unopened mail, the dirty bottles, the wrinkled clothes, and the unanswered phone calls, etc. stare me down. They too are "incomplete!" These little things haunt me through the night and drive me nuts during the day. Did parenthood bring along with it less hours in the day? My focus this year is the little things, so I am going to have to learn to be OK with things being incomplete. I can do all I can during the day but some things will just have to get left undone. But you know what, guess what I DID do today - I chattered nonsense with Lowe this morning. He woke up clapping. Lets all take from that what we should - just for waking up for a new day, we should applaud ourselves.
