It's all part of the Plan

December 29, 2009  /  Menucha Belkin

Here I am again, before another new calendar year, having trouble parting with my planner. What is it about this simple leather bound notebook that keeps me from moving on? Maybe it's the sense of accomplishment - of all those tasks boldly crossed off (• kitchen deep-cleaning • spray paint and resurface side table • Freida's well check appointment • power-point lesson • buy birthday gift for Manash • 48 hour detox )... Maybe it's just the nostalgia of looking back at early 2009 and seeing those days gone by planned out before me ("reading" newborn baby diapers, transition from bassinet to crib, post-natal workout DVD, day #3 of carrots and peas, chapter 5 of the Ferber book)... I suppose it's all I've experienced, learned, lost sleep over, and accomplished over the past year - all in one hard-to-part-with little book. So I let my new-leather-smelling 2010 planner just sit there, and I write "• move to new planner" in my alloted space for tomorrow, again...
