What's On Your To-Do List?

When I was married to my first husband, the only thing he was really good at was housework. He loved to clean and I was happy to let him. I guess I should have hired him as my maid instead of marrying him.

When we divorced, my list of things to do doubled and tripled and became a bit overwhelming. Adjusting to the amount of work around the house and extra things he always took care of took some time. But I found a system that worked for me and eventually things fell into place.

Five years since my divorce, my future husband doesn’t use to-do lists like I do. Cleaning is not his strong suit, either, which I’m taking as a good sign. Each week, I try to prioritize what needs attention between what is work related, house related, and wedding related.

He finds my little lists all over our apartment and luckily, he finds it endearing. Honestly, I find satisfaction seeing the line through a completed task. Any FWW methods to control the day-to-day madness?
