Lists

After reading Cottage Girl‘s recent posts on moving, I’m reminded of the lists I’m making in preparation for my own moving. The lists consist of the practical things, of course. Things like finding a suitable place to live, switching banks, packing clothes. But making a list is nothing like actually doing the things on the list. Ever present on my mind is that odd and uncomfortable mix of optimism and apprehension that always accompanies a big move.

On the other hand, there’s also the lists where I make but never get around to implementing. For instance, the list for revamping the weblog. Now, I’m just going to take it one step at a time–like getting back to regularly posting even if the only thing I put up is an interesting link I found somewhere. Sooner or later, I’ll have to update some of my more static pages, put up a more satisfying “about me” page for the curiously hungry, and perhaps even change the site design.
