never plan anything.

Paul always has a plan. Paul also has OCD. It is being more controlled now with medication, but we still make a lot of plans. Every night before I go to bed, I say "What is the plan for tomorrow?" We had a plan when the day started today, and do you think that one thing that we had planned actually went like it was suppose to?! It was a nightmare, but as I sit here tonight...it's okay, we're okay. We made it through the day living by the seat of our pants, and it was fun.

Our brand new crane machine was delivered,
and it didn't work.
What was suppose to be an hour project,
turned in to hours.
We sold the old crane machine,
and Larry was suppose to be there at 12:00.
Oh, Larry got a flat on the way from Vegas,
and was 90 minutes late.
We were suppose to meet Uncle Dale and Auntie Jenny at our house.
Well, we ended up meeting them at the bowling alley
where we were sitting for hours!
I was suppose to go to work tonight.
That didn't happen, because I was too busy with our family!


I decided that what we had planned wasn't nearly as much fun as what we actually did. We are going to try having less plans, and more going with the flow.

I like an outline, rather than a plan.

Have you ever watched a couple of little girls playing Barbie? They will spend an hour planning...who's who, what they are going to do, etc. Then they 'play' for 5 minutes....the fun is all in the planning!

I'm with Kristina: an outline is much more workable.

I wish I was more of a planner. I fly way too often by the seat of my pants which means I usually end up doing nothing!

I try to have a basic plan, but I am very flexible so if changes are necessary, it's usually okay. But yes, going with the flow is a good plan too :)

AMEN SISTER! I was supposed to go to my cousin's wedding in the Salt Lake temple - my very first wedding since my own. But my bird escaped and flew into a tree so I missed the wedding. Such a lame excuse right. "Yeah, um, I missed your wedding cuz my bird..."
