OK, so now that you have had time to think about scheduling it’s time to kick it into action and create your own notebook! There are so many planners on the market, but none of them ever seem to fit my life! So for this Try Something New Friday we are going to create our very own personal notebook.

To begin you will need at least a 1″ binder (I prefer a 2″ binder). Then a word processor and printer will be your next necessary ingredients. With that set, you can do almost anything!

Get creative. Make a cover for your notebook that expresses your personality.

For ideas on what to add to your notebook, think about how your day goes. Do you need a daily, weekly, or monthly calendar? I prefer a monthly calendar for me since I don’t have a lot of appointments per day and I like to look over my month at one time. Do you plan your meals? Do you need a sheet to jot down all meals or just dinners? If you homeschool, do you need a lesson planning section? Do you have (or wish you had) a cleaning schedule? Jot down which days you mop and which days you wash sheets. After you have written down all your thoughts and ideas, now its time to actually create and print out these sheets.

For those of us who just don’t want to or don’t have time to make these pages there are many places to find them online. But if you want something specific to your life, you may want to create your own.

My friend, Courtney, has done a fabulous job on her notebook. Check it out at The Crosland Family.

There are so many options out there. I will be created mine next weekend and posting pictures soon! I can’t wait to feel organized.
