Creature of Old Habits

Thats exactly what I am...A creature of old habits.  I am not a huge fan of change although in the past few years I have gone with the flow a little better.  So I used to have this "RULE" that I made up.  Maybe I should first say I don't know how I came up with this rule because my mom & dad do not live by it nor have they ever!  Here goes the rule... The weekend before the school year starts back I make NO plans and vow to spend my time at home to prepare my anxiety ridden self about whatever changes are about to take place and the newness of the upcoming year.  Yes I am still like this :)  BUT I have had a couple people give me a hard time about this rule although only ONE person (megan :) ) has really tried to tell me just how crazy it is.  Well I am here to tell you today that this year my LAST weekend before the school year begins has plans both Saturday and Sunday.  And to top it off Sunday we are having our home group from church to OUR house the one that needs its laundry done, dishes done, picked up and all of my 80 childrens files and other wonderful paper work that needs to be done by Monday at  6:30 am are covering my family room floor!  Yikes looks like I will be pulling some late nights.  Have it be known that while this year I stepped way outside of my box and allowed for plans to be made AGAINST my rule, next year we are going back to the "rule"!!  Sorry Megan I just can't do it :)
