Some of us are just "list makers".

I can't say for sure exactly when I became a list maker. It wasn't like there was a "great forgotten task of 1968" that caused me to become list oriented. But I know... since as far back as the early 70's... I've made lists. I am retired, yet my current "working list" has 8 items, 4 of which have been crossed off.

I don't have a bucket list. I don't have a list for the holidays yet ether. But as the holidays get closer... there will be a holidays list or listS. Someday I may make a list of meaningless tasks to perform or accomplish as a distraction from less pleasant (or even morbid) thoughts. I even have some undeveloped ideas of what I will put on that list.
