My Life in Me-Me's

My To Do List

This is a list of stuff I’ve been needing to do for the longest. In an effort to stop these procrastination tendencies, I decided to write this stuff down. Maybe you all can keep me accountable! (Please note that this is not an exhaustive list as I know I am forgetting some items.)

- Transfer all of my retirement accounts and 401K’s from all my previous jobs into a single account.

- Create a website and a portfolio for my make-up gig

- Set up one of those college savings plans for my kids’ college education

- Clean out my closet and donate stuff to charity. (I don’t even allow my kids to come in my closet. It’s a jungle in there and since they’re little, they could get lost in there. Yes it’s that bad.)
- Write a will

- Learn how to make Ghanaian food the way my mother makes it. She tried to teach me before but I wasn’t paying attention. Even though it’s only her, my dad and one sister in the house now, she still cooks like we’re all still living at home. She always has so much extra. So she just calls me to come get some

- Take the Chairman and the girls to have a family picture taken. I got my coupons ready and everything!

- Renew my memberships to these professional orgs I belong to (Why? I don’t know. I never go to the meetings or read the mail they send me. Figured it looks good on my resume….)

- Call all those friends I’ve been meaning to call in the last two weeks

- Take an art class

- Have the batteries in my watches replaced. I am down to my last watch now. I need to do something… quick

- Take my kids to Ghana

- Learn photography

- Clean out my car and have my windshield fixed. There’s a crack in it.

- See an orthodontist about getting braces

- Find a new doctor – not an OBGYN but a regular primary care doc. Anybody got any recommendations?

- Decide what color I am going to paint my bathroom. I have samples taped to the wall. They’ve been there for a while. I just need to make a decision. Just pick, Sandybaby!!!!!!

- Take that big bag of clothes to the drycleaners. I need to stop faking. I’m running outta stuff to wear.

- Paint my living room and pick out some living room furniture. Need to save just a little more cash though…

- Learn how to use all the features on my cell phone and digital camera. Gotta get my money’s worth!

- Plan a vacation to the Caribbean with the Chairman. We’ve been putting this off for too long. So if you know of any good spots, hit me up.

- Go to Nordstrom and get one of those bra fitting specialist to hook me up. I saw them on Oprah’s bra show. I need to be down. I’ve been fitted at Victoria’s Secret but I want a second opinion.


So what have you been putting off? Holla at your girl.
