How do you stay organized?

by Lori on March 7, 2011

Does anyone else’s desk look like this or is it just mine?

I need serious help in getting my desk organized.

And to be honest, most of the papers on my desk are from a notebook where I have written my to do list, a calendar with all the events for the day, and more. When it comes time for me to find out what I need to do on a certain day I have to dig dig  dig to make sure I have the calendar in view as well as any pieces of notebook paper that I may have written a event on.

Sure I have a iphone app that has a to-do list and a calendar and I use it, but I also like a hardcopy of things. That way I can mark  it off when its done and I can feel accomplished! I like to see things written down and marked out.

Now, the question becomes what kind of planner/notebook is right for me?

I need something that allows me to write things for my 3 children, husband, dog and myself. I need to be able to write what blog posts I need to do each day as well as any appointments, etc.

I have looked into MomAgenda and Busy Body Book but I need you guys to tell me why you love one or the other or maybe even a totally different planner and why!

Sell me your planner that helps keep you organized!

Hahaha! I thought you were going to post an actual picture of your desk! I have no suggestions for planners, but you might be interested in this website that I stumbled upon the other day: http://fromyourdesks.com/

I love planners and all things organization… but like you, I haven’t found one that I absolutely LOVE *yet*

I have used MomAgenda, similar Mom planners, Cozi, … what I do like is motivatedmoms (daily/weekly printable planner to help with household chores)

then again… I find that I still gravitate towards the $7 planner at Target that gives me the freedom to customize what I need/like.
