I have been looking for something to use for my to-do list and a basic planner. I found a version by artsy fartsy mama that I really liked and changed it a little to fit my needs. I reformatted it to half-pages with room to plan a menu for the week as well as boxes for each day to collect both tasks and events. The other side has room for a few shopping lists and a space to make a weekly goal. Below the line for goal is an area to outline what needs to be done to make it happen.
*A little note on this: One of my goals for this year is to make a weekly focus for little a spiritual or personal growth. This isn’t quite as lofty as it might sound. Just something along the lines of speaking kindly, making time for scripture study, clean my stinking house, etc.
I printed out 52 copies (front to back) and put them into 4 week stacks. Then I bought 2 pocket folder and cut them down to size to use as monthly dividers. (The pockets can be used for coupons, checks to be cashed, a more permanent to-do list, whatever.) Then I took the whole thing to OfficeMax and had it spiral bound. The whole project was around $5 and is exactly what I have been looking for. (Yay!)
Anyway, I have been using this for a couple of weeks and have really liked it. If you think it might work out for you too, feel free to download and print or fiddle with my copy. : D Keers
This is great! I love it! Thanks for sharing!
What a great idea! Because of my work schedule, I have to do advance meals and freezer meals.
I was thinking of you last night, as I was using my giant measuring cup thing. It’s so great!
Brilliant! The nerd in me loves planners and this looks just perfect. You are so smart and creative.
This is awesome! I will have to remember this for next year.
Keersten – I love this idea! I’m totally going to do it, it’s exactly what I need – Thanks!
You are a super MOM
