    This will be my first year using a planner instead of an online calendar. I love writing notes as well. I will have a section dedicated to business, a personal section, and a Budget Section. I have so far ordered from Amazon an empty planner and a 12 month kit with monthly printouts (the kind you have to fill in) as well as Jan-Dec dividers. I figured I could keep this as a general location for important dates. I then made some a5 Sheets in Word and customized them to my needs for checklists. I purchased a pack of 45 size A5 sheets to print out my checklists (I'm going to use the front and back). I'm unsure at this point if I need an additional section for weekly. I'm also still looking for tabs, I have some ideas, but that's it so far.

    I like that you are straight to the point. No fluff! And no likes! Like ya know! Super cool setup and loved the end. All the ideas! I'm a newbie to the planner world and whew! You just gave me some extreme pointers! I'm an artist at heart, love to create and this is something I have enjoyed getting started! My budget was first on my list! I made some really cute envelopes to separate my cash and love love color coding everything! My mind thinks in organized fashion! And I am just loving all of the neat ways people keep their journals or planners! I had absolutely no idea how Huge the planner society is! Ahhh! I'm a subscriber to you now! Perfect way to interact with the world of planning! If I find something good share I'll let ya know!✌️

    Perfect! I love watching planner videos with the actual process (how to's). This is what helps me. I like the cutesie stuff as well, but this is the type content that holds my attention. I really love when it is explained why it is done this way.....Even better. I have navigated toward watching lots of budget videos because they go through the process. If you know others who plan like you and deliver content within their videos please let me know. I want to make sure I am not missing anyone.

    Perfect timing! I’m setting up my LV Desk Agenda using a disc bound system. I’ve been using Alexis’s from Miss Trenchcoat’s inserts for 3 years. Can you tell me what pen you’re using to write that’s erasable? If it’s Frixion which style? TFS, I’m going to check out your playlist. :)

    Where do you list long term to dos or things that need to be done but not day/time specific, for example going through old clothes, organizing the garage, cleaning closets etc?

    • @AnnieSmithawifenmother
      @AnnieSmithawifenmother  Před 5 lety +2

      They are usually just stuck in my brain because everyday I see the closet all cluttered. Sometimes I write it on a sticky note and put it in my monthly view. Usually I keep a long term list, which I haven’t needed for the last few months, and which I’ll be creating soon once my new monthly notebook arrives.

    • @Robin-px9rc
      @Robin-px9rc Před 5 lety +2

      Shannon Phillips I designate those types of things as ‘projects’. So you could have a page that lists projects, and even categorize them if you want. (Short term/long term, personal/household, etc).

    • @AnnieSmithawifenmother
      @AnnieSmithawifenmother  Před 5 lety

      All of my inserts are tagged with links in the description box. My monthly insert is not available anywhere that I know of so sorry about that. Etsy is a great place so search for what you want there and you’ll have dozens of options. I recommend just picking something you like and don’t over think it.

      @@AnnieSmithawifenmother I like the personal size and your Webster's pages video helped me choose that. Lots cheaper than a planner and adding pages a la carte (although I have some Etsy pages to add) but I was debating until I saw the video. My Webster's personal arrived, and it is GORGEOUS and all inserts so lovely.

    @rydiecyj Před 5 lety +1

    Just curious if you ever use the left side of the calendar page under the "notes" section that has empty space instead of using sticky notes to remind you to do things for the month. This way you could check them off and go back to them if you needed to without a sticky note covering part of your calendar events or having to move the sticky note around as you add things to your monthly spread throughout the month. I know that it can be just a matter of preference, I just wondered if you ever used this area in this way. If not, what do you use the "notes" section for? Nice vid by the way. Thanks for sharing.

    • @AnnieSmithawifenmother
      @AnnieSmithawifenmother  Před 5 lety +3

      It has never occurred to me to use the notes section of my monthly; I think it’s just too small for me to be drawn to it. Plus I think it clutters the page for me. For some reason, I love the look of sticky notes throughout my planner so it makes me happy to see them everywhere and not frustrated that they may be covering something. 🤷‍♀️😂

      What size planner and what kind do you have or do you want? Did you check out my playlist where I show a bunch of different planners that I have used or reviewed? It can help you decide what might be best for you. It’s in my playlists here on CZcams.

    As a home schooler have you ever thought of finding other parents who home school . So you can have a couple parents an then specialize in a subject or subjects an have you kids socialize with kids an parents that are like minded . And/or tutoring kids from the local schools for financial gain an more. Socialization of your kids.

    • @AnnieSmithawifenmother
      @AnnieSmithawifenmother  Před 4 lety +1

      We are already part of a homeschool co-op so yes, my kids are in other classes once a week. It’s a misconception that homeschool kids need to seek out socializing, my kids have many opportunities to interact with people of ALL ages and learn to act appropriately with every age group, not just their own age group ☺️
