I want to clarify a couple more things about my time tracking experiment! First, why I'm doing this: I am not tracking my time so that I can deeply analyze it, or be able to say with certainty that I spent exactly 3.21 hours with my children yesterday. Maybe some people may want to do… Continue reading Time tracking, continued!

Time tracking experiment
Good morning! It's a 5:30 a.m. swim practice day. These are currently "necessary" in Asher's schedule, because he is so busy with volleyball + soccer right now that he can't get to as many of the evening practices. Even with the early Wednesdays in the mix, he's only making it to swim about 3x/ week… Continue reading Time tracking experiment
Becoming a digital convert
I've been using a hybrid paper/ digital planning "system" for a long time now. My paper option is the Wonderland 222, and then I use Google calendar. But I'm finding myself actually "needing" my paper planner less and less lately. I do still use it, but it has slowly dropped into being my more secondary… Continue reading Becoming a digital convert
I finally organized my phone apps
Yesterday I tackled a nagging "to do" item, which I hadn't even really realized I wanted/ needed to do until suddenly it was driving me absolutely insane. That task was organizing my iphone apps. I am one of those people that generally ignores the aesthetics of my phone. I do set a personalized wallpaper/ lock… Continue reading I finally organized my phone apps
OMG- my closet
While Ivan and Asher were away this past weekend, I finally had time to tackle a big, nagging to do item: CLEAN OUT MY CLOSET. The problem: I haven't been feeling super awesome about my wardrobe this past year. Not 100% sure why. I am now suspecting, after doing some closer surveying of the situation,… Continue reading OMG- my closet
Nagging to-dos, no time
Happy Friday! I feel like I need a few days off, preferably before the boys get done with school on May 26th. I'm going a bit nuts with a bunch of lingering "projects" that I just don't seem to have time to get to. Yes, I have some free time that maybe I could "use… Continue reading Nagging to-dos, no time
An online journaling tip
I've been wanting to mention this for a while, just in case it would help anyone out! If you are looking for a way to write or journal that does NOT involve writing by hand (which is not for everyone), check out Penzu.com. I have had a free Penzu account for years now, though my… Continue reading An online journaling tip
Mood tracking
In the front of my Wonderland 222 planner there is this "Yearly" page, with little boxes for each day of the year. The whole year is spelled out over just 2 pages. These boxes don't leave a lot of room for writing, but I've developed a little code system that allows me to track a… Continue reading Mood tracking
Keeping planners forever?
So I'm not huge into the whole "planner world" like some other people are, but I have dabbled just a little bit (100% thanks to SHU and her planning content/podcast). I don't really like change very much, so I don't see myself bouncing around and trying all different products and dayplanners, though. I did switch/… Continue reading Keeping planners forever?
Living with my small closet and Bucks WIN!
I finally tackled cleaning out my closet. Ivan, his brother and Ethan went to a local professional soccer game last night (they were playing against a Mexican team!), and I stayed home with Asher. He had swim practice (carpool- so I didn't have to drive), so I decided to seize the moment of an empty… Continue reading Living with my small closet and Bucks WIN!
