A little old-fashioned or the real deal?

I decided today that keeping my "To Do" list on paper is SO MUCH more psychologically pleasing than to keep it on the computer.

Ever since the entrance of my new Mac PC at the office, there have been some way cool changes in my time at the office. Things just get done more quickly and efficiently. It is fun to be on the computer again. One of the little nifty inventions that came along with the Mac is a program called "stickies." It is virtually Post-it notes for your PC desktop. Stickies are great when it comes to short notes, but when it comes to a to do list at the office, it just doesn't work for me.

There are constantly things to be done at the office, which I don't mind at all! When I use stickies, I put the tasks on a note. As I receive more tasks throughout the day, the note gets fuller. When I finish a task, I delete it off the note, and all the other tasks are still there.

Here's the problem I found: I don't like stickies because I can't physically put a cross out line through it. I just have to delete it off the list. And I actually don't see that something has been done. I just see all that I still have to do. I became frustrated that I didn't feel I was getting anything done.

So I went back to paper today, and life is just a little bit better. I look back and see ALL that I actually did accomplish today. Praise God!

And to top it all off, my cold is much better! Thanks for the prayers... until next time, Gretchen
