When you have a busy household that needs to be organised, I find that a well designed and laid out family planner or diary is very important. Do you find that it is essential to keep things running smoothly?
It is important that I write down that Bookclub is due back on Friday; Master 5 has a Doctor appointment on Tuesday and the girls need haircuts on Thursday. There is a lot of coming and going in our family and if I don't write it down in one place, I would be rather lost and just a little stressed out.
I have found a wonderful planner, that you can have a bit of fun designing to suit your own personal style. You can really make it your own.

You can add a bit of colour to your day and make your planner more personal and more efficient. Personal Planner has endless design possibilities. You can change the colour, text and design on the front and back cover. You can also add important dates directly from facebook to the inlay.
A few of the things I love about this planner:
- Design the front/back cover
- Lots of ways to design the inside to suit your style & needs.
- Add friends & family members important dates to the inlay
- Choose between 4 different sizes
- You pick the start date.
- And best of all its fun and easy :)

As a kid I wanted to FLY! When I was a teenager it was INVISIBILITY! Now that I'm getting old I want to STOP TIME! However, I know I cannot do any of these so I'd love to win a planner so I can at least keep track of my hectic life and TIME! However, I still won't know where the time goes but at least I'll know what I'm doing and what I've done!!

Every single year it's 'I resolve to be more organised'... you really don't want to see how well that's going for me. I need help with everything! I've got three tubs of butter but no bread, because I shop like a mildly concussed person, I've got a note book for everything but because they're all separate I can't find the one I want when I want it and I'm starting to forget things like my birthday, and breakfast!

You know how it is - Mum is the hub of the family.
ReplyDeleteIf mums doesnt know when it is on or where , then no one will lol
Everyone including my husband asks me when and where , even my mum and dad still do it to some extreme.
I need a planner just to get thru the day with some sanity left ;)

I wouldn't make it through a week without a diary! With 2 boys - 6 & 4 (and pregnant with baby #3) I am constantly on the run. Whilst my memory has decided to go on a slow and casual walk-a-bout with no intention to return.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the chance :)

ReplyDeleteI can never keep track of appointments and all the things going on. This would sure help!
ReplyDeleteBetween 4 design classes, my job at the bar, and my own art and decor business I am forever writing notes on random scarps of paper... a receipt from the 23rd of last month indicates that I have a meeting on the 13th... but of what month i know not.

I have six children, the eldest two in Yr 11 and 12, the next youngest does 5 dance classes per week, and the three youngest are all social butterflies with playdates in abundance. I need a planner to help tidy up all the important times/dates/meetings/events that keep spilling out of my brain and getting lost under the furniture.
ReplyDeleteit was my new year reso to be more organised and this would be a huge help arballantyne@dodo.com.au
ReplyDeleteMy plan for this year, "if you fail to plan, you plan to fail", that's a lot of planning, think I need a planner :)

I'd love a planner of my own so I can put in uni dates, work dates, actual dates, friend dates, dates when markets are open, dates when I am having coffee and dates when I am babysitting. I'd love a planner to plan out all of these dates so I can look back in 2014 and remember what an awesome year it was and be more prepared this year!
ReplyDeleteI am a Type A personality with lots of lists and would love to design my own planner with everything I need in one place
ReplyDeleteI would like this for my daughter. She works three jobs, and this would help her keep track of her schedule.
ReplyDeleteI need a planner made just for me,
ReplyDeleteI can make it as pretty as can be,
With my own design inside and on the cover,
I can become a super organised mother!
This would be great for my daughter, she very artsy and likes to personalized everything.

I am a stay at home mother of a 5 year old and a 5 month old...I am lucky I remember to brush my hair by the end of the day lol. Every notebook I've bought to try to use as a planner has been taken by my daughter (5yrs old), this way my name is on it so she couldn't take it if she wanted to. I sincerely could use this!

I am a stay at home mom of a 5yr old girl and 5 month old boy. My daughter steals all my planners and notebooks so with this she wouldn't have a chance to take it. I am lucky I remember to brush my hair by the end of the day so I could really use this!

Because I am a hot mess when it comes to being organized! If I don't write EVERYTHING down, it will be forgotten. It's a nightmare. Then sometimes, I forget where I put my list or notes and it gets overlooked anyway. LOL.

This would actually be for my daughter-in-law. She is so busy with a new husband and baby.
ReplyDeleteI tend to get distracted easily, so a planner would help me stay on track.
ReplyDeleteI need to become more organized. My life has been so unorganized for the last few years. I decided it is time to get organized again.
ReplyDeleteBecause I have a 17 year old daughter headed to college this fall... I would love to give her the opportunity to be organized from the beginning. We're doing visits and there are so many scholarship dates and info to keep organized before she even graduates high school in a couple months.
ReplyDeleteI need a planner because I have 3 kids and a job PLUS I just started my own business!!!! I am a hot MESS lol
ReplyDeletemaryjeanrenshaw@msn.com
My daughter is headed to college this fall and we have soooo much to keep organized, even before then. We have school visits, scholarship dates and information, shopping and packing lists, etc, etc, etc. I would love a way for us to stay organized together, yet separately from our individual commitments.
ReplyDeleteTo get more organized.
ReplyDeleteI don't have one right now and would be great for keeping track of things.
ReplyDeleteit would help me get more organized
ReplyDeleteOne of my goals this year is to be more organized & this would be a great start :)
ReplyDeleteI need a planner to keep up with everything. Working fulltime and taking care of my family is so hectic-so many appointments are required. A planner would hep me organize and keep up with everything. garrettsambo@aol.com
ReplyDeleteI need a planner to help keep my to do list separate from my father's. I manage his doctor's appointments, home health visits and anything else he might need as well as managing my own family's life. Everything gets jumbled and then I tend to forget important things.

I have adopted a group of friends for goal setting, and we keep each other accountable. I have goals to accomplish each week, and I need a planner to make it easier for me to remember said goals. This should work.
