Plans
I like to make plans.  Few things make me feel as satisfied as sitting down and making a good plan.  Unfortunately, it usually stops there.  I fail to plan for after the plan.  I carry out my grand plan, and then what?  I had been planning to go to nursing school for so long...that was my plan.  Now it's over.  What will I do?  Like the time I planned to go to Maine for the summer.  I spent hours thinking it over, corresponding with the camp where I was to work, preparing, purchasing, packing.  I went there and had a great time for 9 weeks.  Then I came home and wandered aimlessly for 2 months.  Well, this time I don't want to do that.  I'm trying to make a post-plan plan.  Here are some of the thins I would like to include: catching up on leisure reading, cooking more regularly, organizing my house, attending the temple, volunteering, exercising.  Ideas?
