Here are a handful of planners and logs to help make your day run smoothly and harmoniously. They are geared towards our home lives (rather than our business lives), but cross-over to help incorporate both.
These are digital files only, not a physical product. They are intended to be printed by you on letter-size paper.
SINGLE DAY PLANNER:
The best way I know to keep my day calm and harmonious is to write everything down. On those particularly busy days that involve both work and home tasks, I like to pull out this "Single Day Planner". It lets me plan my entire day from the general overview right down to the fine details that are time-sensitive. I seriously use this list for busy days, even though I have a perfectly good weekly planner that I use. It was invaluable to me at Christmas time to plan my menu, get those last minute gift projects finished and ensure I scheduled time for my afternoon cafe latte!
Print off as many copies as you like and use it as often as you need.
ENTERTAINMENT LOG:
Speaking of planning a menu, I can't remember from one year to the next what I prepared for our holiday meals. More importantly, when I have guests over on a regular basis, I'd like to make sure I'm not serving them the same thing each time. It has happened. Seriously. To come to the rescue is the "Entertainment Log". Track everything that is important about an entertaining event so that you can totally outdo (not redo) yourself the next time around.
Try keeping a separate page for each special occasion if you want to track lots of events.
LOCATION OF EVERY LITTLE THING:
Remember when you put an item in a "good" spot so that you'd remember where it was when you need it? But then you couldn't remember what that good spot was? Happens all the time. The "Location of Every Little Thing" Log allows you to write in all sorts of random things and where you've put them. If you use this faithfully, you'll thank me in the long run.
If you want to track lots of items, perhaps keep a separate page for different categories of items you want to know the location of such as tools, office supplies, art supplies, garden items, off-season clothing, artifacts, etc.
PASSWORD LOG:
There's no way we are remembering ALL of the passwords that we have to manage. Write them down in a central spot and make sure you update it as you change them. One thing I like to track that most password logs don't track is the email used for a particular site. I have several emails (work, individual, plus aliases). If I ever have to change one I want to know which sites use it and whose records I need to update.
I hope you find these as useful as I do. I'd love to hear from you in you have any ideas of any improvements you'd like to see.
