How Ahead Of The Game Am I?


Um….VERY!

I mentioned earlier that I have the birthday and Christmas presents already purchased, wrapped, and shipped for my nieces and nephews (this was the start of it all).

  • I have my Christmas newsletter already written and ready to print out (after the final few tidbits to add to it).
  • I have my baby announcements created and ready to go (I just need to put in the “stats” and add some pictures).
  • I have the envelopes already addressed with the mailing labels and return address labels and stamped for both the Christmas newsletter and baby announcement.
  • I have all of my birthday and anniversary cards purchased, addressed, and in order of when to send them from now until the end of January.
  • I have my 2010 calendar already purchased and updated.
  • And, I have “Mommy Calling Cards” already purchased and ready to hand out when my little one is ready for a play date.  I ordered them off of moo.com and picked their variety pack of designs (too lazy to upload my own).

Yes, you can laugh.  Yes, I am that anal about organization and being ahead of the game.  And yes, I’m just a freak (and love it)!

    Thanks! It feels good to be this far already. I certainly wouldn’t have guessed I would have my 2010 calendar all ready to go, that’s for sure. :)

    My goodness you are set to go. I love it. I hope I can gather some inspiration from you! I’m not a procrastinator, but I could always be better!

    Let’s just see if you’re this organized AFTER the baby gets here! hahahaha

    I know. I have a feeling I’ll have some down time where I’ll get behind on quite a bit, but it’s my nature to stay on top of things and stay organized, so I can only imagine that I’ll come back on top again (at some point….um, when the boy is in college). LOL! :)

    I’m just anal about everything. It’s that OCD coming out. Just my nature I guess (crazy, but true). :)

    Wow, you are “Ahead of the Game” and SO organized! That is GRR-EAT!! But just remember it might be a little different with a baby but you can and will adjust well!!

    Yes, I know this all will change soon. Being ahead will only last so much longer, then it will probably never happen again. LOL! :)
