Re: Re[6]: OT sidetracked sisters

> I am now reading their Happiness File book. It is not about housework. It is about other aspects of your life. For example, they are going into stuff like "immediate action" cards that could be things like calling people or getting something at a store. (For Mike.. no it is not context related :-)

Yep, I read that book too. I am basically a productivity book junkie
;) (Yes, I am currently reading the book written by the Zen Habits
guy.)  What I was thinking about is how LB will hide things for you
and let them come up on the list at the appropriate time. And it is
tricky to set things to work just right. (You may not have adjusted
the pie chart slices or set the importance correctly at the parent
level.)

There is a program for linux called Howm that does the same thing. It
runs in Emacs and will bump things up and down on the list depending
on importance and date due. I liked using it, but got tired of trying
to deal with the Japanese translations. Oh well. The card file idea
really does work well, if you like analog. And it can be fun to have a
theme for different months of the year, to help you focus on different
aspects.
