You all know that all this summer we have been "planning" for our trip to China. This planning has envolved phone calls to family memebers for moral support, ideas, or help; with my sister and my mother getting most of the calls from me. Mind you, my uber planner self comes by this trait honestly - my sister has it and so does my mother. HHMMM, wonder how far up the chain this gene really goes???? That's research for another day.
Mike is always amazed at that wonderful day, usually during school shopping season when I come home, excited, because I was able to find next year's calendar, and begin to transfer all the birthdays and other important days on to it, as well as any of those nasty 6 month appointments, made before the calendar came home. He usually just shakes his head and lets me have my fun. (note to self, add genetic research of the uber planner gene to my 2013 calendar when I get it). Yesterday, I'm not even sure what he was doing, but Mike looked at me and asked if I had the new calendar yet (I think he was wanting to look up a date - there should be no reason for an appointment there yet). First I simply said "No, not yet", and then I rememebered WHO I was talking to.... the man who is amazed at my compultion of planning ahead.... Let's hope our kids will get my Uber Planner gene and not his Procrastonater gene.... (Can adopted kids get our genes... add that to my research project...)
