I am a creature of habit and follow a pretty precise routine. I'm a fabulous organizer and a pretty good task manager. At least I like to think these two key elements are an ever present part of me and pretty obvious from the get-go. I guess we will need to wait and see what my girlfriends say who read the blog...

Have a wonderful day!
