I have a charming habit of being really on top of things. I start the various tasks I need to accomplish with fervor. I think of things days, weeks, even months before they need to be done.
And then I leave them half finished...that's the part that is not so charming.
When I saw these cute clipboards and matching pencil sets in the Target dollar spot way back in May I thought they'd make cute gifts for Mac's teachers on the first day of school. I brought them home to wait months and months until the last minute and I finally got them ready yesterday, just in the nick of time for school to start today.
Thankfully all I had to do was cover the top of a notepad with some patterned paper...
You can see other first day of school gifts from 2010, 2009 and 2008 that I did a little better job of not only planning but also finishing ahead of time.
