What does it say about a person when they keep lists for every little inconsequential thing?
Q. I mean beyond being organized? I know someone who writes down everything, even things that occur weekly like garbage pick-up and milk delivery. To-do lists, long-term goal list, daily lists, lists for the kids, and post-it's everywhere. Is there something bigger going on here? She is 35 yrs old, but has kept lists since childhood. It seems to have gotten worse over the last several years. When she isn't able to write things down she is always asking people to "remind her" of things. She either will not or can not trust herself to remember anything. She doesn't have a bad memory - she is just too...I don't know...lazy? to remember on her own. I never let it bother me, but other people have mentioned things to me now, so I worry about… [cont.]

A. Smart girl...I wish many times that I had, it would have saved me lots of anxiety over where i put things, what I did or didn't pay, did I take care of that assignment that I had told myself not to forget...I know someone like this, who had eight kids, and always just wrote things down, and then, as he said, didn't have to worry anymore, and could just go back and read up and see if he had done what he was supposed to...good deal, really...it is just a lot of work

What is an effective method for constructing spelling lists?
Q. I want to put together my own spelling lists. I know that some teachers go by grouping word families eg. cat, mat, that. Is there a more effective way?

A. If you work in the early grades or special ed, try McCraken Spelling Through Phonics. It is one of the most effective ways to teach early spelling and reading at the same time. You can get the book on eBay or Half.com.

How do you display the buddy lists for the instant messengers on the T-Mobile G1?
Q. I use Gtalk, AIM, Yahoo, and MSN Hotmail messengers. My Gtalk and MSN messengers display the buddy lists fine but the AIM and yahoo don't. There is a bar at the very top that says "buddy list" but I am not able to select it as an option. Is there something I can do to get them to display as the others?
