I found a very interesting contest at TwitterMoms forum here The TwitterMoms/ ServiceLive contest is asking bloggers to write about the "5 things on your 'Honey-do' list that never get done," in just 500 words or less.  Sigh, just five. The folks at TwitterMoms have obviously never met my husband! I could write a 1000 page essay about my honey do list without missing a key stroke. 

Honey do list:

1. Honey, please read the list and mark off things as they are done- Do not throw the list away; do not hide the list; do not mark out things as done that aren’t done; do not claim that the dog or children ate, vomited, or urinated on the list.

2. Honey, please collect all of your tools that are scattered about the yard, car, truck, patio, bookshelves, under the bed, at work, and with friends. You have much to do.

3. Honey, please fix the leak in the roof. Your idea to mark this off the list after covering the leaking exhaust fan with aluminum foil and duck tape did not work. See #4.

4. Honey, please fix the gigantic hole in the sun room ceiling. Failure to fix #3 has resulted in the sun room ceiling collapsing. I know that it is romantic to see the moon and stars from our new sun room moon-roof hole, but the power company called to ask why our electric bill was eight times what it normally is.

5. Honey, please mow the grass or bring home a machete and some Patagonia pants so that I can chop a path to the car.
