My journey through procrastination
I used to be a regular procrastinator.
I started pulling all-nighters in eight grade and it became a regular occurrence through my college years. In college, I met a person who said he had never pulled an all nighter. I was totally amazed, as I had never met anyone like that before. What was his secret?
Pen holder for Moleskine notebooks
If you are a regular Moleskine notebook user, like I am, you might have found it frustrating that when it’s time to jot down something, there’s no pen available!
That’s why when I found the Quiver pen holder, I was thrilled!
Online chore chart
If you are a parent of young children (or not-so-young children), you know how hard it is to get your kids to do your chores.
Now there is a free online chore chart that motivates kids to do their chores!
New to-do task web
My daughter ran into this website tonight and sent me an invite. It’s a free website for managing tasks and collaborating on tasks with other people.
In Place System
I ran across this video that explains an organizational product but also gives great tips for organizing!
Mini-notebook brain
This past summer I was at home resting. As a result, I didn’t have a long list of things to do every day. And because I’m always about dreaming up new ways to get organized, I started using yet another new system!
A Moleskine alternative
I love Moleskine notebooks. I love having a physical notebook to write notes in. Even though I also love computers and my iPhone, they just don’t have that ease of jotting in a quick note. And they require electricity, so you’re in deep waters when you run out of power.
Recently, I found out about some other notebooks that are just as good — if not better — than Moleskine!
10-minute random menu planning
If you are at all indecisive, you can probably relate to the agony that I go through when it’s time to plan a menu. Everything looks so good… what to cook? What about all those recipes I clipped? And my cookbooks? Decisions… decisions… argh!
But now the problem is solved. With my current menu planning system, I now plan my menu in less than 10 minutes!
Meals for loved ones
There’s a free site out there that makes it easy to coordinate meals for family or friends who just had a baby or are going through a tough time. It’s called Care Calendar.
Desk shuffling
Yesterday I made just one tiny slight change to my desk… and it has made a ton of difference! It’s amazing how just turning something at a different angle can make a space more efficient and effective. And it didn’t even cost anything.
