On Tuesday morning, I spent a good hour going over our calendar. I've been forgetting things or forgetting to tell Kelly things...not good. We have just entered a period in our lives where are girls are both going to have sports practices aside from their music lessons and church activities. We're not over-scheduling, but the activities definitely have to be listed so we know what's going on.
Organizing rule of thumb #72, have only ONE calendar in a central location. I've had one on my fridge forever, and then there is the one in my purse. I know I've been breaking this rule for awhile, but how else can I have my fridge calendar with me? Well, I can with the iCal app on our phones, but I can't part with my pencil yet. I did, however, update all 3 calendars because Kelly only uses iCal. I was very proud of myself, and I will try to use the iCal app to see if I like it. Old habits die hard which is why, even if I have the fortune to have an iPad, I will still love my pretty, papery, solid books over ebooks. Does this make me 'old' being this set in my ways? I think not, but I'm sure my kids will think it as they get older. Oh well.
If we are ever going to begin making the repairs needed to our house, I have to get a budget together. And then stick with it. This store will be my most challenging budget buster. Budgeting will kind of be like going on a diet. Target will be the chocolate I'll need to give up (or use in moderation) if I want to lose some pounds (or save dollars).
