I’m getting caught up. I took November off to work on my NaNoWriMo project (a one-month challenge to write a novel in 30 days). I had to stop at 12,000 words of my 50,000 because I added three new clients to my small business. Now I’m back up to a regular income and a comfortable client load. This meant I didn’t get to do as much “fun stuff” as I’m used to like noveling and blogging. I’m still bogging at www.debtkid.com so you can read me there. I’m also coming back here for regular posts on frugality and family.
Today I’d like to tell you about my calendar.
I’ve just purchased my second “mom’s plan-it” calendar. I love this calendar because it includes a line for each member of the family (up to five). Being a four-person family, we use the fifth space to show the evening’s dinner plan, so we don’t have to answer the question a dozen times a day.
The kids love the event stickers and that they always know where to look for their stuff. It’s also great for mom and dad to be showing things like shift work, doctor’s appointment and which parent is driving whom where, which we always struggled with on our earlier traditional calendars.
I found this at Office Depot at the list price of $14.95, but Amazon.com has a much better price (I used a coupon on mine, so I didn’t pay full price).
Here’s an example of how we’re using the calendar at home. 
DISCLOSURE: I’m not paid by the publishers of the calendar, however I am including my Amazon.com affiliate link.

Thats pretty crafty! I know when I was growing up, my mother definitely had a super size agenda for us and she never forgot! amazing i used to think but her job would have ben even easier if she had a calender like that.
