So I may have introduced some of you to All Consuming, the media tracking site. (Its that thing over there ------------------>>>>>
that's responsible for my currently reading list.)
Well, All Consuming has merged with another site run by the same people called 43 Things. Its fun and a little addictive and one of the joys of the web. The idea is pretty simple: Everyone makes lists. My family (especially my mother) has a ridiculous facility for list writing. Even as much as I am not typically prone to such Type A behavior I still find myself in love with lists. 43 Things is basically an online, collaborative, searchable, taggable, interactive to do list. This one is mine. You can add them yourself, or latch onto things created by others. Its all visible and can be commented on or "cheered" (the currency of the site, you receive a limited number of cheers per day, and can use them to support any tasks, people, entries or comments you like).
Its hard to explain why I'm enjoying it so much, never really having been much for the social networking tools that the online world has wrought. But there is something fun about it, where you can see how unreasonable you are about what you want to accomplish, but then always find someone worse than you and you can find plenty of commiseration with your failures.
Anyway, check it out. If I get around to it I may link it up from this page too.
Hello my name is Lee Ann and I make lists too.
I always have a list of "things to do", "things to buy", "things to think about doing"... etc.
Speaking of trees, the bulldozer is for sale... do you need one? Scott bought a larger dozer and a backhoe! He is now using the backhoe to pull up the stumps from the trees that fell. We will be having another burning party this fall ~ you can try your hand at the backhoe this time.
Also ~ Cedar Point ~ I would love to go! Scott has never been. It has been years since I have been there. Sara, Jen and I went while we were still at SC4... somewhere arournd 8 or 9 years ago... wow ~ has it been that long?
Good Luck house hunting!
Given the way I drive the thing I probably couldn't get it into the backyard without dropping it in the canal. And there's not really enough room for it. But its an idea.
CP is in the "Great Ideas that probably won't happen" along with Stratford. I'd love to make a trip yet before I head up north, but it seems seriously unlikely. But if I do pick a day I'll let you know.
And definitely let me know about the burning party. I might be able to sneak away.
