Friends, it is time. It is HIGH time I get my life organized. I am doing some great things in my home and in my life and I cannot wait to share them with you. My precious baby is one and I am making every attempt to regain control of my life…if that will ever happen again.
First things first. If you want to be organized, you must start with a calendar to keep you on track. I am a picky little girl when it comes to my calendars and there are a very few that I like to use. Amy Knapp’s Family Organizer is certainly on the top of my list. This calendar is created by Amy, a mom, and she knows what we moms need to keep it together during the week. The calendar is week view, with a month view at the front of each month. On each page is a column for a grocery list and a column to plan your menus for the week…all in one spot! (We need things to be concise, don’t we?) An added personal touch is that the left page not only has space for a pretty big “To-Do” list, but a quote of the week to ponder while you sit in car line. The back of the book is equipped with stickers to put on each day to remind you of a birthday, anniversary, vacation, school’s out, doctor’s appointments and more. Of course there is a quick reference section for phone numbers, sitter information, etc. She has thought of everything! I love this calendar. If you like, it comes in a “Christian Version,” as well, with the thoughts for the week being verses, etc. Even better, the calendar runs from July 2010-December 2011. I love those extended calendars because they allow me to keep scheduling when I wait to the last minute to buy my new one!
What are you waiting for? Get your new calendar! Better yet…Penelope just MIGHT be giving one or two away HERE!
