Summer Plans...down to a T

Today went better than I expected.

I had everything planned out, and most of it went went pretty much as planned. That never happens. That must mean that tomorrow will be filled with sorrow, ruin, weeping and gnashing of teeth, or some such thing. Or perhaps not. Perhaps having a day meet expectations is all because of my meticulous planning.

I've never planned out my summer quite like I have this week. I kid you not, I have planned down to the hour what I want to happen. And for the most part, it did. That's pretty exciting. I am not a Type A-must-be-in-control-of-my-destiny-at-all-times kind of person. I'm more of a Type B let's-just-see-what-happens kind of person. Unfortunately, in my case, just hanging around waiting to see what happens, has meant that not a lot has happened. So, this summer I'm being a little over-prepared, and I'm okay with it.

I got in my walk today because of it. Two miles down!
I ate healthy, healthy, healthy today, too.
I even made healthy, Greek-yogurt popsicles for my kids.
And took them swimming.
And to the library.
And I put away ALL the clean laundry (not just mine like I usually do).
And I sorted and put away the mystery box sitting in my bedroom.
And wrote on my novel.
And grilled teriyaki chicken on the new Weber. (I love that new toy!)
And read to my kids.
And bathed them.
And sent them off to bed so I could read my book and write on my blog. Hello, blog!

It was a busy day! I woke up earlier than I do during the school year, just so I could get started. I hope my enthusiam continues to hold strong, and I get more accomplished this summer than I ever have before.

Can't wait for what tomorrow will bring!
