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?
