The Plan...Modified

After all the planning & stating of yesterday, last night I could not sleep thinking of all the things I needed to accomplish. So, I got up at 1 a.m. and started gathering things to work on my list. I had a plan of addressing envelopes at the office and finalizing some other things. That did not happen! I went in to work early this morning for a meeting and the action NEVER ended. I was running all day long!

So... New Plan...

Tomorrow, when I go to New York for a meeting, I will buy more labels so I can print them out tomorrow night. Tomorrow night, I will: finalize the labels, address the envelopes, make the invitations and get them ready to send.

I am soooo ready!!!!

I received the following from my cousin, Alice, the other day and it is really sticking with me this week...

Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly,
Love truly, Laugh uncontrollably,
And never regret anything that made you smile.

Ok, with the start of the new year (granted it was a couple of weeks ago) it is time to put together goals for the year. I am not calling them New Years Resolutions but more of a To Do List that should be accomplished by December 31, 2008. I do these for work every year, why not home?

2. Get more organized
~ Organize every closet in my house
~ Create a better filing system for our bills
~ Organize every drawer in my house
3. Spend more time with time with friends & family
4. Get Talmage's Memory Book up-to-date
5. Update familycrom at least 1 time per week.

I also have a to do list for this week...let's see how I do:
1. Make invitations to Talmage's birthday party
2. Send out invitations to Talmage's birthday party
3. Send out Christmas thank you cards
4. Come up with a plan to reach the goals for the year!
