make lists

For inspiration and remembering smart thoughts I have thought

I am hoping, just hoping, that I can become more organised. Is it too late to start at 43?

I hate top ten lists, but I want to make lists of movies, books, restaurants, bars, parks, etc. Things and places I like, for me, so I don’t forget. Otherwise, I get stuck in a rut, and go to the same old places, or forget things that influenced me in the past. One great thing about books and movies that infuence you is to re-experience them many years later. It gives you a perspective on how you have changed. Art can be the same way- how you interpret things will change over the years.

lists of books, movies, dvd’s, groceries, gifts to buy, people I need to call, stories to write. Ive lists. :)
