Lists

I like lists.  I like quantifying things, cataloging things, checking things off.  Sometimes, it's just making the list for the sake of just making the list, like when I make a grocery list and then leave it on the kitchen counter.

A few of the lists rattling around in my head right now:

1)  packing list for Utah--I will need wedding festivity clothes, temple clothes, clothes to run in, snowboarding clothes, a swimsuit for the hot tub, and things to keep me relatively warm and dry in the Utah weather.  This will take at least two suitcases, meaning $100 in bag fees.  We will be there for over a week, so no getting around it.

2)  grocery list--things to get me through the next week.  I have been doing Weight Watchers for two weeks.   The goal is not only to lose a little bit of weight, but to make a change in the choices I make.  It's going fine.  Two pounds down so far.

3)  workout lists--training for the half, as well as swimming and cycling.  Stay tuned for the "Muffin Man" challenge.  Also, I have to figure out how to use all of the Groupon I purchased for Pure Barre.  What is that, you ask?  It's Pilates in Hell, basically.  I thought that I would be all over it, but it turns out that my lower abdominal and iliopsoas muscles are very weak, and you use those a lot in this class.  So I want to keep going to get stronger, but once my Groupon is used up, I'm going to have to reassess.  What I definitely want to do is go back to Fun Pole classes.  Those are tons of fun and good for the abs and hip flexors.

4)  spiritual development lists--Personal Progress for the YW for me and the girls, scripture study plans, YW planning, going to the temple for inspiration....So much to do!
