Obligatory Blog for the Week

I feel that I must blog at least once a week, but I'm having trouble finding topics to actually blog about. So, I'll talk about my plans for the coming year, but first my plans for the remainder of this year....

I only have 9 days before I am on a plane heading back to Texas. This is very exciting for me because I haven't been back there since February, which was also the last time that I saw my family (except for my wonderful sister who came out to California to celebrate my birthday in April). I know that many of you go for much longer periods of time without seeing your families, so nine months really isn't that big of a deal, but to me it feels like an eternity. Before I moved to California, I saw them monthly or at least every six weeks. I also know that my Mom is crazy excited about seeing me again. I am actually going to be staying with the Queen and King B for a couple of days, which I'm also very excited about. I haven't seen them since they stayed with me back in June, although I am in contact with the Queen practically every day. I'm really hoping that the King will cook for me. After two days with the Queen and King and a week with my family, I'm going to fly down to San Antonio and spend a couple of days with a bunch of my friends from college, who I haven't seen in two years. I then will be flying back out to California. Once I'm back out here, I'll be hanging around my own place for a couple of days and then my friend Vanessa and I are driving up to Cloverdale to spend New Year's Eve with her mom in a very quiet manner.

Coming January 5, 2009 I return to the office and am going to try and be very positive and up-beat and start the year off right. I'm hoping that I will pick up some great organization and planning tips from the Queen when I'm with her. With regards to my blog, though, I have purchased a great desktop planner (Do It Later!) with great tips for procrastinating and I plan to share all of those with my readers!!
