Welcome.

My husband often remarks on the fact that I love a good plan.  He is right.  I love a good plan.  Whether it be planning our honeymoon, planning a vintage dish rental company (which never came to fruition), planning the layout of my classroom (I am a middle school teacher and yes, I love my summers off), or planning our weekly meals, I love to plan.  I like considering the "big picture", determining what tasks need to be accomplished towards that end, figuring out a logical order for such tasks, and making lists to ensure they get done.  I know this makes me sound like a type-A control freak, but I am not.  Well, at least that's not all I am.  Because I am a concrete sequential and abstract sequential blend, I am drawn to ordered, sequential, linear ideas while also appreciating the role of feelings, emotions, and intuition in the planning process.

This blog is a way for me to share my plans, for better or for worse.  My shared plans will include those about sewing, crafting, cooking, and teaching. 99% of these plans are first written into a little pink notebook that I have with me 99% of the time.  (The other 1% of my plans are developed in my head and are therefore, rarely successful.  The other 1% of the time I do not have my notebook with me, the plans get forgotten.  I need to write my ideas out to help them along.)  Each post will represent a different page in this notebook.  I hope you enjoy your glimpses into my pink notebook planning!
