Organize Your Life

I was searching for useful organizational tools that won't break the bank. I found this website and so far so good.

I am listed under KrisKreationsNH so feel free to link to me. The nice thing is you can actually print out your lists.

From everyone I am talking to they keep saying that you need to schedule into your day time for everything. You keep doing this till it becomes a normal part of your day. So I am going out today to find a day planner that lists times all day long. I had also thought about just printing out something like that and making a binder but I am concerned that if it is to big I won't be able to fit it into my bag. I also need to get a large space calender. So that I can write everything in for each day. I think that this will help out alot since my husband helps out alot with Children's activities.

Since this is a new year I feel like everything can start over fresh. No mistakes in it yet. So good luck with your new year.

End of a year and promises of a New Year

The end of one year and the beginning of a next. Most people are busy visiting friends and loved ones. Making New Year's resolutions about losing weight or quitting smoking. But here it is the same. But my resolutions are simple: Get Organized-both in my personal world of home and kids, but also for my business. I am seriously committed to making this work and it will work but it will take alot of work on my part. But also to make this my new motto. "Don't let me be so busy making a living that I forget to make a life."

Here is a place to find some very nice Inspirational Quotes:

The need to have a Schedule

It has been brought to my attention that in order to be successful a schedule is very necessary. I have been operating under the idea that "oh after bed or oh after the kids..." I would have plenty of time to work on my toys. WELL....didn't really work out that way.

I have been feeling a lot of stress for many reasons but in order to get things under control I need to figure out some sort of scheduling. So I am creating a daily calender using Cozi.

I am finding that I need to schedule everything. That is including time for errands, travel time to and from places etc. I also need to create a project schedule. Just like back in college I have to have specific deadlines for different parts of my project. Such as cut fabric and lay out pattern on day 1, day 2 attach 8 pieces etc. So lets see how that is going to work.
