Let's start with the obvious:
Isn't this whole blog just one big To-Do list?
Yup, but this is a different kind of list. This list consists of a myriad of things, many of them small, many of them I only need to do once. When I encounter a minor inconvenience I almost never take care of it right away, if at all. Take the buttons on my winter coat, for example, the subject of tonight's post. I lost one a couple years ago. No big deal. It was still a perfectly functional coat, so no need to stress about it.
Then I lost another. Again, totally fine. It was mostly decorative anyway.

And another.
I now have two functional buttons on my coat. I haven't been able to actually close it in a couple years. Makes you look like kind of an ass when you're bundling all the kids up for recess, insisting that everything is zipped up/ fastened securely, and you are constantly standing with your arms crossed to hold your own jacket closed. NO MORE! These are some of the super sweet replacement buttons I got; gonna redo the whole coat.
If you think this is exciting, just wait. I broke my glasses in December. That scotch tape that has been holding them together for the past couple months is potentially on it's way out.
