I'm a planner. I hate to let my life just go along and not have a plan in action. I tend to over plan and get anxious. Like the moving thing. We aren't sure what we're doing. We're just doing it. I hate that. I want to know when our current home will sell, when we'll buy another home, where we're even moving, what's up in general. The house thing is pure turmoil to me. Not to Mr. Big. He's a fly by the seat of your pants kind of guy. He can plan a party at the last minute without batting an eyelash. He can buy all his Christmas presents in one night, typically the night before, ahem. In general he's not as structured and organized as I am.
Joshus is four months old. I'm already planning out the next baby. When I'll do IUI again, when we'll visit the RE to discuss said IUI, when we'll fall pregnant, Will we find out the gender next time?, Does the gender matter?, Will we even get pregnant again, Can we afford another baby?, Will the boys understand?, yada, yada, yada. My mind is out of control. Mr. Big just knows he wants to try for one more and that's it. He doesn't even consider the logistics. I feel my hands creeping out of my pockets like magnets attracted towards his neck.
I buy Christmas presents in July, People! It's insane. I already have most of my shopping done, minus a few gifts here and there. I was contemplating wrapping them this morning because I was bored. What is wrong with me? Ha ha!
If there was a way for me to look into the future and realize what was going to happen with everything I could chill. I could concentrate on the sky. I could count the horses in the pastures. Life would just be more relaxed for me.
Is anyone else a planner? Step up!

Aimee,
Is there something wrong with already having your Christmas shopping done? Mine is almost complete except a couple of things for the kids and Dave's largest gift. A friend of mine has all of hers wrapped already. I can't fly by the seat of my pants unless I plan it!?! Sure worked out well for Dave when I spent Christmas in the hospital on bedrest!

Oh, am I am planner too, Aimee! I drive myself and my husband nuts! Now he is a planner when it comes to bigger things, like selling a house, but little things, not so much. Like you, after i had Stephen I was already planning the next baby. My mind just races to the next thing. I am getting better now that I have the two bys, and it's not as easy to just get up and go, but I have plans already for the spring and summer plantings. I am excited! Did I mention that I live in Illinois and it is just starting to get cold, so no planting will take place until June. UGH! So you're not alone. Living by the seat of my pants would literally drive me insane, although I do envy people who can live that way.
