LOL! I usually have a list, and I count the major items on my fingers, but by the time I get to the last finger, I've always forgotten something.
That is supposed to cover me until I remember what I forgot . . .
My husband says I was made for the Catholic Church, because I love rules. I tell him I just like to know exactly where I stand, and the Church has had 2,000 years to figure it all out!
