Day Ninety-Seven- 4/8/11 Extreme Spring Planning

Day Ninety-Seven: 4/8/11
New Thing: Extreme Spring Planning     
Inspiration: Spring        
Cost: $0 
Time: Several Hours             
Bottom Line: OK Spring...Bring. It. ON!

Reflection: I have always been a "planner". I started keeping a day planner when I was in elementary school, and still never go any where without it. I make little lists and take great pleasure in crossing things off of them. It's not a control thing, I just like having being able to put down an idea and not worry about forgetting it. Lately, however, I have had to put some things around the house on the "back-burner-list" and today was a way to change all that. Today, I planned out my whole spring. This process included:

• Spring cleaning list with tasks for each room of the house (which commences tomorrow)
• Final leg of the 10K training
• Travel Plans
• Personal, work, and home calendar synchronizing
• Planning the garden layout, crop rotation, and composting plans
• New family daily&weekly chore rotations
• Some meal planning
• 365 Alive planning for the rest of the month  

Will things go according to plan? No, of course not! And that is totally fine. But for a few hours, I feel nicely organized.
