Typical

That every time I have to step out I make a list of things that can be done/need be done once I'm out.
Killing one bird with two stones so to say and so I carve out a long list of things that need finishing.
It can be anything as mundane as buying a crate of eggs and tofu to something as tedious as getting electrical appliances repaired, and so today I figured I should get done some Christmas shopping seeing how I was going out and making a small stop to a store on the way is no skin off my nose and just like always I made a list of things that had dried fruits and assortments of sugars and what not, ingredients that I'd need for my Christmas cooking etc and just like always after having made an elaborate list of things I forgot it at home, sitting neatly folded on my coffee table like it was destined to.
This is getting to be a habit I think because it's the third time in a row that I've done something similar and yes I know perfectly well that one can make a list on phone and perhaps there would be someone quick to suggest (I'm looking at you) an app that is apt for just the work but I am prehistoric where lists are concerned and this way I remember exactly what I bought when.
All my forgotten lists find themselves getting stuck to my journal and it feels like a scrapbook of items that felt like a necessity way back when and now who knows.

Right, on with the work and then off for some shopping or at least a cup of coffee.
I'm in the mood to leisurely spend a while staring at a cup of espresso.
