Ahoy - I spreadsheet

I like to be organized. A while back, I found that Excel had a bunch of template lists. It started with a simple camping gear packing list. It was amazing. I used it for our many camping trips. Then I made one for plane trips to California. Then I made one for our road trips to Oregon. Needless to say, I now have all my templates and customize them for each trip.

On that note, I am realizing that Ryan and I do take quite a few trips! We go down to Portland every two months or so. We go down to California about twice a year. We are heading to Colorado soon and my packing list is coming along quite nicely.

My girlfriend just passed along a great monthly cleaning list (http://www.justmommies.com/articles/2011cleaningcalendars/december2011calendar.pdf) , and I'm quite happy with my little addiction. Do you have any kinds of life-changingly awesome lists?

I don't have lists; I have BINDERS! I am known by some of my friends as the "binder girl" now. Binders for recipes (Cooking Light separated into genres and VOLUMES! haha), a binder for Ireland trip planning, a "Mommy Binder" with notes from seminars, articles, ideas, things from my Moms Together group, a binder for Family Fun inspirational ideas, and vacation spots we want to go to. Obsessed much?! I love binders! :D

I don't have "JUST" lists, I should say...
