Contest Entry, to-do lists.
Sarah had a habit of putting off her chores.
and every day she could not do them all.
She made a list of three jobs to get done
each day and vowed to finish by nightfall.

The first days chores were not so hard
she'd done them all through and through
The second day didn't go so well
and two things were left for her to do .

She waited for the coming day and added
the two chores to the next days agenda.
She finished two tasks with three left over.
She was too tired to do those three you betcha.

By the time the work week was done
The chores built up to add up to ten left over.
She gave up then and changed her mind
to just doing what she could forever.
