New Months

I love the start of a new month. Especially one that starts on Monday. It is such a great opportunity to start a new goal, or start over on an old one. I know that sounds silly, but to me it is just wrong to try to start something new on a Wednesday, even if it is the first of the month. I would have to wait til Monday. So Monday the first is always fun. New months always seem fresh with so much adventure ahead. I like to look at an empty calendar, for at least one day, before it suddenly fills up. I have found myself looking at my calendar this year with lots of " if I can just make it through..." take August, with that one the boys went back to school. Then I needed to make it through October so baseball and soccer would end. I love watching the boys play, it is just so time consuming and we hardly get to be together at night. Now I made it through November, which this year, is great! So, Monday, December 1 was really exciting today. I can officially say I will have this baby this month! I looked at my calendar and today was the only empty day this week. I filled that up with an eye doctor appointment. The next 2 weeks are out of control busy with church events and my turn to teach Cannon's joy school. Then it slows down. If things slow down in December! I made a list of all the things that are required to be done before this baby gets here. Since I only have 3 weeks, I better get cracking.

I have to admit, I did not make any goals for this month, beyond my list. I am really just waiting for this baby to be born. After 2 crazy busy weeks, I will really be counting days. This Monday the first all I am thinking is that every day I get through gets me that much closer to this baby. I am not worrying so much about finishing December.

Maybe someone else loves Monday the 1st too and will make great plans for this month. I sure wish January started on Monday. That is really just perfect!

Happy December 1st!
