I guarantee it. I did a big purge a few years ago, and last year before our move, I threw away the "collectors box" of Life magazines I'd previously saved. Can't say I miss a single one. <BR/><BR/>(Although I still have one old magazine -- Seventeen from May 1986. Molly Ringwald is on the cover.)Kelly @ Love Wellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18037513409301217473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20806515.post-76356765885372169282008-07-29T13:36:00.000-06:002008-07-29T13:36:00.000-06:00I write things on my calendar even if I've already...I write things on my calendar even if I've already done it...just for the sheer pleasure of crossing it off.

(I am a known to-do list "cheater"!) <BR/><BR/>BTW, you will not miss the magazines. I have the same problem with "Family Fun" and "Scrapbooks, Etc". I cannot part with either of them, but honestly, I never crack them open after the initial reading. <BR/><BR/>In your next post, please give us an update on the name dilemma. Do you have a final list of names you're at least considering? Inquiring minds want to know!<BR/><BR/>-Rebecca-Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20806515.post-72629268954324608642008-07-28T20:11:00.000-06:002008-07-28T20:11:00.000-06:00I'm glad you got to check off something baby-relat...I'm glad you got to check off something baby-related!

Therefore, if I do something that isn't on a list, I have been known to add it to my list, just so I can immediately check it off. What a feeling a accomplishment :-) LOL!Emma's Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08572515341393915254noreply@blogger.com
