On our list of "Things to do"...

is to come up with a name for our LLC.  Really, I can't understand why this is so difficult.  We won't (hardly) ever advertise using the name, so hardly anyone will ever see it.  Yet, it's still a very difficult thing for us to do, and is delaying the process of getting it all set up. 

Anything on your "To Do" list that you are making more difficult than it should be?

Re: On our list of "Things to do"...

  • Yes! I need to call the husband of my mom's former boss as a networking connection. I'm intimidated and not sure what to say to him. It isn't a big deal-I just feel so awkward about it.
  • Two things come to mind:

    - Organize and order photos.  I've been meaning to do this for roughly two years, but I've been putting it off for various reasons.  But at this point, it's a huge project, so now I'm even more likely to continue to put it off.

    - Edit (or at least read) my novel that I wrote during Nanowrimo last November.  I literally haven't read a word of it since I finished it in November.  I'm scared.  And the idea of editing it is even more intimidating that the idea of initially writing it.

  • Clean up/out the basement and winterize the house since it looks like we will be staying for longer than we thought. I'm hoping to bring in the garage freezer into the basement so I won't have to trek though the snow to get things for dinner this year. 
  • Painting our dining room/kitchen.  We have been going to paint it since DH moved here three years ago.  Well, then we got married, got pregnant on our honeymoon and now have a small baby....will it ever get done?  Maybe in time for Noah's graduation open house. Wink

  • Organize all the photos on my computer and back them up on the external hardrive...SUCH A BIG TASK! ugh. 

    Also peel the fugly butterfly border off our bedroom walls, and pick paint colors for the dining room and kitchen.

    This is something I never did.  My cousin is the only person who has read the whole thing.  It's sad because I feel like there is some good stuff there, but the prospect of reworking it is just really daunting.  

    I almost think that taking the idea, note carding and then completely rewriting it would be easier than trying to edit what I currently have.

    I was thinking about taking my current draft to Hawaii with me to work on during the long plane rides.  Realistically, I probably won't though.  I've also thought about using this year's Nanowrimo to work on editing it.

    I suppose I should at least read it, though.  And I want to... I'm just weirdly nervous about it.
