How Ahead Of The Game Am I?
October 19th, 2009 @ 3:22 pmI 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!

Can you help me organize my life?
You are so smart doing all that Jan, I had Jessie on Dec 13th and was out shopping for Christmas gifts on… yep… you guessed it, Christmas Eve… what was I thinking???

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!
