Things I Love: Making a List and Checking it Twice

I just love to make lists and check things off when I complete a task. I've tried to use my iPhone for lists, and I do use it for grocery lists. But it doesn't seem to appease me the same way writing lists and checking off completed tasks in my notebooks. My husband prefers Post It Notes.
Do you make lists? How do you Organize?

  1. I am the exact same way. I need to write things down on paper, not on a phone or online program. It's just not the same. I make grocery lists, Target lists, things to do lists...very fond of lists. :)

  2. I was just tweeting the other day about my love for lists. To-do lists. Grocery lists. Packing lists. Lovelovelove. Moleskins and a nice pen..

    If a list is ugly, I throw it out and start over.

    :) Have a good weekend!

  4. I love making lists too! Right now I'm using fun spiral notebooks I've found at Target. It's the perfect place for my grocery lists, to-do lists, creative fun to-do lists, what bills need to be paid from this paycheck lists, etc etc etc.

  9. I love creating lists!
    But they have to be "real", not electronic.
    I'm glad I'm not the only one :)

  10. i'm in the same boat....as I am sitting here i have 2 lists in plain view. Plenty others are on my iphone...such as certain articles of clothing I am looking for in particular. And you're right, the satisfaction that comes from scratching it off feels soooo good!

  14. Woo hoo! Another list maker! I literally write things down the second they pop into my head. I even have got a little notebook for my car so I would stop writing on the back of receipts or my hand haha.
