There are some people that can plan things better than others. I have always been someone that can organize, plan, delegate and manage most type of events from fund raisers calling for several hundred individuals to intimate dinner parties. I believe a big part of this is that I love to pay attention to detail. I have always been this way. I notice small details from what is in a room to what a person is wearing to what color eyes individuals have. I have employed these skills to be quite successful as a corporate event planner as well as a party planner in my private life.

Since I have been an adult I seem to be the go to individual when it amounts to birthday party ideas as well as ideas for anniversary and retirement parties. Just now my children came to me asking ideas for presents for dad and I am the one that have to counsel on these matters. In truth whenever I get worried at work my husband tells me to cease the hassle of corporate and take up one of the numerous offers I have got from caterers to be their party planner. I have considered some of these offers now and then; yet it is tough to give up the security and income that I get from being involved with a large corporation. I enjoy getting involved in several birthday party ideas and other parities, yet I am a part of the corporation so I see the actual effect that my attempts of raising funds has. If I would just plan and arrange different birthday party ideas I would not have any actual feeling of satisfaction that something important was going to occur as a result of my endeavors.

A few months ago my sister phoned me for birthday party ideas for her hubby. He was going to be sixty-one. He did not want anything special for his sixtieth birthday party last year. My sister has never been able to surprise him in all the years they have been married. The only thing I suggested her was on the choice of retirement gift in the past. Now she wanted me to help her pull off a surprise party for him. I told her that I would have to think about some diverse ways that we could pull off a surprise for him. I told her I enjoyed the fact that she was making this on a year other than one finishing in a zero or five because people were more on guard during those years. My brother-in-law is rather a practical joker so I knew I would be capable of getting the help of many individuals to pull of several birthday party ideas. I have given my sister a few different ideas to think for the event. My best bet will be also to find a good gift for my brother-in-law such as family ski vacation so as to surprise him. Once she gives me her decision I will get going with the planning. I am happy that I found a way to put my skills to function.
