Today I felt like I got a lot of things checked off my list. And when I say list, you should know that is a loaded statement.

I am a lover of lists. I make lists OF my lists (this is not a joke, I rarely joke about my lists). So I was very intrigued when I heard about the website todoist.com .

What is it? Well, you can add “projects” which are lists of things to do. Each project then can have “tasks” assigned to it. I should note, here, that I have not yet decided to upgrade to the premium version. The basic version is free.  Here are some of the lists I’ve made:

• weekly tasks (each of us have our own, plus one joint activity one)
• restaurants we want to visit
• places to practice photography
• cities to visit in MN
• other US places to visit
• wish list for me
• wish list for man-go-round
• christmas/ gift ideas for others
• movies to watch
• TV shows to download
• birthdays
• things to google
• blog ideas
• column ideas for the magazine I write for
• ideas for our Project 2012 (social, cultural, spiritual, etc)
• household chores
• wordpress projects
• yearly festivals and fun
• things I need to talk to him about after work
• which James Bond movie we’re on (we’re watching them all in order)

It seems like almost every day I think of a new list or use for this site, and its all in one place and I’ve gotten man-go-round to use the same account as me and we can use it on our mobiles…

What’s not to like? I don’t know. You can add dates things are “due,” check things off but still have them saved in the lower gray area, and more.

I love it.

Have you tried Todoist yet? How do you organize your life? Do you love lists as I do?
