Sundays and calendars

Who knew that I would come to love Sundays because of what I can accomplish?!  Sundays are set aside for me to clean the house, create a weekly (or longer) menu, make a shopping list, grocery shop, clip coupons, and organize everything for the week ahead.  If a Sunday comes and goes and these things don't occur, I feel completely out-of-whack.  My week generally doesn't go well either. 

I am definitely a type A person.  I like to have everything organized, ready to go, and in order.  I am a planner.  I do not do much that isn't written in my calendar.  Anyone who knows me well, knows that I am LOST without my calendar.  It is like a life-line.  I have actually had John bring it to me at work when I have forgotten it.  (Yes, I know...I need to cut the strings here.  I just can't!)  Everyone has their "thing(s)" in life.  Living with the calendar is my "thing". 

So...back on track...  Some people laugh about how I organize, but it works for me.  John and Gracie know that I have a plan for just about everything.  It makes our life go about a little easier.  They know that if something is happening it better be on the calendar.  Gracie has learned to put all invitations, papers, and any other time sensitive materials on my computer if I am not at home at the time she gets them.  This way she is sure I see them, and they find their way to the infamous calendar.  :)

So, today is Sunday.  I have completed several of my Sunday tasks, and I feel very happy that this week will go according to plan...or should I say according to calendar?!  ;)
