OrganMYzation - A Blogging Calendar Printable

This week has been so busy and it's only Tuesday!  In an effort to hopefully tame one part of this busy mama's life - blogging - I'm going to take this free blogging calendar for a spin.  I found it on the Living Locurto website where there's lots of "original ideas and designs, hundreds of free printables, weekly menu plans, recipes, party ideas and DIY crafts."  Amy, the creative brain behind all this is a designer, stylist and mom of 2 from Dallas, TX.
Next week (well, this Friday) I'm starting to meal plan also.  No more random sticky notes or pages ripped from a notebook with my grocery list on one side and meal plan on the other.  Then notes, messages, etc. end up all over my plan and then suddenly it looks like trash.  I can't tell you how many times I've lost (trashed, recycled, stuffed in the bottom of my purse) my meal plan for the week and have been left wondering what the hell I'm going to make with all the groceries I bought that week.  Frustrating!

Do you use a schedule, a planner, a calendar, a meal plan to help you keep organized?

I know exactly what you mean. I have so many notes and lists from previous times that when I make a new one and put it in my bag I end up taking out one of the old ones and purchase base on that list...hence leaving out the stuff I really need and buying irrelevant items.

I used meal plans to keep cooking and shopping organized. Then I make a daily schedule and try to keep to it (I fail most often, but I at least get more accomplished and waste less time on facebook etc.)

This is such a great idea! I have been looking for a way to organize my blogging time.

Hey Mandi! Let me know how this works out for you. Looks promising. I do use a meal planner. Check it out at mealsmatter.org. I have been adding all of my favourite recipes to this site for about a year - maybe two.
