Note to Self - Sweet!

  Are you a note or list maker?  Admittedly, I am one of those people who thinks a list or note to self helps me accomplish things more efficiently.  I make lists, I like to write reminder notes, and in my school days, all the way back to elementary, I was a note taker.  My school notes were copious, to say the least.  I seldom left out a word being said by the teacher or instructor, which is not a great attribute for one to have in the classroom.  I probably missed a lot of "important" by concentrating on my note-taking! 
  I am a fan of "top 10 lists" and love the idea of a prioritized list of goals.  Those are major lists/notes, but the daily short and sweet lists/notes are my favorite.  The kind you make when you set out to do errands
and list the order in which you will travel to accomplish the errands.  Or the list you give to your husband when he asks if you need him to pick up anything for you while he is out and about.  Then there is the sweet little list of reasons "why I love you" that you pack in a child's school lunch, or even a little reminder note to bring home library books.
  An obsession?  I think not - more of a "tool" that keeps me on track and is a visible reminder to myself and others.  In this age of iPads, iPhones and other Smart Phones, a paper list is not a necessity.  I just happen to think a fun little note pad to jot on works best for me and is a nice alternative to electronics sometimes.  Perhaps, if you have been making your note to self on an electronic device and not accomplishing the goal or task, it is time to take a break and go for the pen!  SweetGraceGiftsandPaper.com offers lots of lists and note pads to give you fun and sweet choices.  Our Printswell store has a limited time 30% off sale on all note pads offered.  Our Donovan Designs bow pads make especially sweet little gifts for your favorite list makers!

  Then there are the lists that give information  and are very specific that every household needs handy!  Here are some of our favorites.
