Weekly Challenge #6

Make this the week you get a jump start on 2008.

Purchase a wall calendar, refills, update your PDA...whatever it might be.

If you wait until January, there might be slim pickings at the store y'all.

And in case you are wondering, I use a variety of organizational tools to keep me on task.

Above is my new 2008 mini wall calendar that will hang on the cork board in the kitchen. It is a quick snapshot of pretty much everything going on.

I use a 12 month wall hanging erasable calendar in my office for project planning and a quick review of issues that might come back to haunt three to six months after the fact.

I would be lost without my PDA. It has it all. Meetings, appointments, birthdays, anniversaries, deadlines, tasks, travel arrangements, lists, etc.

Overkill you might be thinking but this is what works best for me.

I plan my personal appointments a year in advance. Yes, you read that correctly. A year planned out each November, usually over the long Thanksgiving weekend.

I sit down with my wall/kitchen calendar and mark off my hair (every 7 weeks), brows (every 3 weeks), and facials (every 6 weeks) and create a word document for the people that keep me pretty and pampered.

I make a note of when my yearly, physical, teeth cleanings, eye check ups, etc. are due and call for those 2 months in advance.

I'm going to go hide now. For some reason I feel exposed for sharing this with you.

Peace and Love Peeps.
