So, I always make lists. The problem is… I rarely scratch off everything on my list before I make a new one. I made a list over the weekend of things that I needed to get done, supplies that needed to be ordered, appointments I needed to set. It was 4 separate lists, 4 pages long by the time I was done! This list is different though. I am committing to this list. I will scratch things off as I complete them and I think I should be able to have everything scratched off within the week!
I am going to spend more time scratching things off the list and less time reading blogs this week. That being said, I think the following blogs are awesome and should not be neglected. So, I put together a list of blogs that I like for your reading pleasure. Maybe you can pick up the slack for me and keep readership up while I am crossing off my list? Oh, okay… I’ll probably read just a little bit, so I’m not out of the loop, but I’ll still keep up with my list. Maybe I should add “Keep up with RSS and read blogs daily” to my list? Then I can still have the satisfaction of scratching it off.

I LOVE LISTS! – BUT NOT CROSSING THE ITEMS OFF? That’s crazy. I like to put email, shower, even peeing on my list so I feel super productive as I VIOLENTLY scratch them off. I love your blog list – thanks for all the recommendations!

Thanks for adding IheartPGH to your list! I love that notebook in the picture. I am a huge fan of your tote bags and scarves. If you ever add your designs to Spreadshirt I would love to include them in the IheartPGH shop too.
