I once had a teacher (the legendary Mrs. DeFelice) who told me her dream job would be to work as a professional organizer. If you know her, this makes perfect sense. But the older I get, the more I realize that I think this would be my dream job as well!
Lately my organization gene has been in overdrive. Here are my recent creations:
1) a house chores/cleaning chart for myself
2) an Excel spreadsheet for our 2008 earnings, taxes, and tithing (I'm really impressed with myself on this one - if I enter how much I got on a certain paycheck, it will calculate how much total I've made for the year, how much total tithing is owed, and how much I currently owe on tithing - amazing, I know!)
3) A Family Home Evening Schedule through April, complete with weekly lesson themes and who will be teaching
4) a check-off list for my New Year's Resolutions (including a chart for the daily goals, weekly goals, and monthly goals, plus a list of those extra goals that don't really fit into a schedule...)
Yeah, I think I'm a little crazy, but I enjoy it! I think all of this organiztion will help me to get things done, and having a new, working computer really helps with all this stuff! (Okay, the computer's not that new, but it's still a great tool!) Now I'm off to go work on my next organizational project: a budget and financial overview for the next ten years (I'm not even kidding)! This girl likes to plan!

ahahahahahahaha! You're insane. But obviously you enjoy it, so more power to you.
I know - perpetuating those OCD traits! But at least I'm putting them to good use. :)
Can you get me one of those family home evening charts too?
