Reminder challenge

     One of my worst habits that I have is procrastinating - I get it from my mom...  I either spend my time doing other "things", or I just don't have the energy or "creativeness" to get done what I need to - one or the other!  Thus me doing these posts to help not only myself, but others to remember the events in their life they need to remember!  
     Spend a bit of time today in looking at your calendar until the middle of August... do you need to make anything, send anything, or just spend time in purchasing the supplies you need to be able to make everything?  It helps to be able to get a list going, or at least things looked at so you know what needs to be done when it needs to be done!  Do you need to spend time now looking at ideas, or shopping for the gift itself?    
     For me, we have a birthday this month, a birthday for my sister next month, a Christmas in July blog hop, and a Birthday blog hop - all between now and the middle of August...not to mention my birthday next month.  Not wanting to spend my time the night before I need to get everything in the mail (or the day of like I normally do), then I am spending time in looking at ideas that I would like to make earlier, with going through what I already have as far as supplies goes, and then getting the items done as I can - and have everything for them.  I have planned Allison's gifts out, her birthday card, as well as the bag I am making to put it all in...I have the papers picked out, and the ideas ready to go...but I am like my mom and need to "think about it" for a day or two before I get started on things!    
     So your challenge is to look at the calendar until the middle of August - and start to make that list for what needs to be bought, made or planned out this month!
