My well-intentioned, wonderful husband bought me a book last Christmas entitled ‘Getting Things Done.’ I (who show signs of OCD) was a bit taken aback by this and, therefore, boycotted the book. This Christmas, he read it and asked me to do the same. He said that he wanted to incorporate some of the tactics into organizing our home and wanted me to be onboard. Sigh. I read it. It was good. Don’t get me wrong. I just already do alot of the things in there. I have gotten out of my warm bed to run downstairs and jot some ideas on my to do list. I’m just weird like that. Anyways, I have a literal stack of books that i have been ITCHING to read but used them as bait to complete the self-help book. I finished it yesterday! Yipee for me! I started ‘The Goose Girl’ by Shannon Hale today. So far, so wonderfully different from a self-help book…Aaaaahhhhhh.
