Make a list....

This time of year is strange - a constant battle between the desire to just stop and relax, and the need to just keep going flat out for just a little while longer.

Thank goodness for lists - big lists, small lists, beautifully-written lists and lists scrawled on the back of an envelope - when the pressure starts piling up, a good old fashioned list is all we need to get everything out of our head, to see the bigger picture, and to get things back under control.

I may not be Santa, but I do have a list, and believe me, I’ll be checking it way more than twice before tomorrow night…
