Lists

Today I will run all about the local roads doing errands, for I have a list. Without a list I know how to have lunch, do laundry, run the vacuum and dust, go for my walk, find something interesting to read, take a nap. Anything else is likely to be forgotten.

I worried, when I became a grandmother, that I did not know how, and I had no list. But as it's going forward just now, my kids are fully responsible for their little girl, and all I am called on to do is to notice her, and admire her, and attend to her fresh way of responding to this world we call home. What a privilege. I believe I can do this after all!

The sky is sunny, and the snow is steadily melting. And I have this list...
