Indeed great lists here. <br /><br />Its really good to follow some lists to go forward systematically, but quiet often it may not works either. Anyways this year i want to follow some lists systematically:-)<br /><br /><br />I posted a notification in my blog regarding this years blogging challenge. you can see that here. <a rel="nofollow">Philipscom</a><br /><br />Happy Blogging to all. <br /><br />Thanks again Rosalind for this great list.<br />Best Regards<br />PhilPhilip Verghese 'Ariel'https://www.blogger.com/profile/16981252465465661710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-32570509069117981792013-02-12T09:11:35.781+00:002013-02-12T09:11:35.781+00:00Hi Elena, you do sound as if you're being good...Hi Elena, you do sound as if you're being good and methodical already. Maybe you need to number your To Do items? Just a thought ;-)<br /><br />Hi Nicole, no list is ever wasted. That list will be of some use some day. Hope you have a great theme-idea soon.<br /><br />Hi Inger, great to see you over here. I'm afraid I need lists more and more for the very same reason. *shrugs*<br /><br />Thanks Maria, I suspect there are going to be quite a few blog posts with numbers in the title appearing very soon!<br /><br />Hi Jemi, I loved/love reading encyclopaedias too. Funny, Mr A rarely makes a list unless he's about to start a new DIY job and is off to the plumbers merchants.<br /><br />Hi Valerie, glad you decided to join in and I hope your lists help you during April. It can get a little hectic halfway through but it's great fun.<br /><br />Hi Diane, I see that no one has yet mentioned 50 Shades of Grey or maybe that was just a hit in the UK. I'm not sure.<br /><br />Hi Shannon, it's interesting that you say that it may imply a shorter post. I tend to avoid visiting those who post out extremely long pieces during the A to Z. It's just impossible to get round everyone otherwise.<br /><br /><a href="http://rosalindadam.blogspot.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">Rosalind Adam is Writing in the Rain</a>Rosalind Adamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05363027308436257933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-6838345862650143822013-02-12T05:01:56.829+00:002013-02-12T05:01:56.829+00:00I had never heard that a number in the title would...I had never heard that a number in the title would bring in more readers!

But prioritizing is not my best quality (yet).<br /><br />Since this is the first year I'm joining A to Z April challenge I've chosen my topic and I've started my list of posts to be written. <br /><br />Discipline is important and lists help. I use daily lists and project lists and lists of projects and I'll soon need a list of my lists.<br /><br />I do need to learn to be more methodical!<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00872129157580383933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7148510738485459197.post-58002314834832264932013-02-11T18:26:04.330+00:002013-02-11T18:26:04.330+00:00Hi Mark, SORRY!
