- Hey friends,
Today I am showing you just how I plan out my life for an upcoming week. This helps me be the best mom and wife I can be, but also accomplish all of the stuff that each week has for me. I did it step by step so it can be followed if you're someone who struggles with staying organized and wants to follow along. Do you have a planning routine?

I need to organize my life! Looks so helpful!
Love this! We plan very similarly, however I got some great tips from you! Thank you!!
This was really helpful. Would love to see more videos like this. Thank you!
Very helpful and inspiring! Love how practical and simple you make it covering all the different areas of life! I plan on Sunday afternoons for the upcoming week but I love the meal plan at the same time idea! That makes it easier! Thanks! ❤️
Just opened the video and excited to watch this! Thankyou for taking the time to do these videos!
Yes, having a plan is a must for me, too. It makes such a difference.
This was just what I needed after last week. I like your system and will definitely be trying it this next week. Thank you for your awesome videos!
This video inspired me! Just got a new planner and pretty notebook.
You turned me on to planning awhile back, and it really has helped so much! I love my Erin Condren planner, already ordered one for next year. Thanks for another helpful and inspiring video.😍
Thank you for sharing these great tips! I'd love to see more videos like this!
Thank you that really helped me, was feeling a little overwhelmed with planning just yesterday 😊 I'd love more planning videos!
Love all your planning 😍👏👏👏
yes! Please more planning videos! I always feel overwhelmed during the week myself. I love the idea of taking time on a Sunday to get prepared for the week. Thank you!
Why oh why are we not neighbors jammin on our planners, talking homeschool and fitness, and dreaming up big things?!?! Thanks for being the girl I wish lived next door😊
This comment made me smile! 💞
I love all of your planning videos 👍🏼👍🏼
Keep them coming 😄
Great video. I’ve been using multiple things for lists, brain dumps, daily schedules, meal and grocery lists etc similar to what you do but I want to have it all in one planner. I used the well planned day this year and liked it but had to customize it since I had my home cleaning schedules and other maintenance lists in excel and they contain multiple pages. So I had to print those out as well as other calendars for their multiple things they do and glue stick them all on!! But now the cover is tearing off 😆. but it looks like you love planning as I do!! Thanks for a great video!!
Definitely requesting an EC planner for my birthday this year! TFS💜
Sundays after Church and Family time. I sit prepare for Co-op the next day. Then plan for everything during the rest of the week. In my moms corner I have my planner that stays there and I fill it in throughout the week from whatever I added into my phone. The only thing I do not keep track of is Homeschool assignments. I mainly do not do this because its not a state requirement so I don't even bother with it. But then again I do keep track for my sons transcripts when he finishes something. I definitely meal plan, mainly because that is one of our biggest expenditures.
You are so busy but so organized!!
Love the idea of just having a weekly to do list and not trying to fill every day. Also, writing down all appts, to dos, etc. on a notepad beforehand!
DITLs and organizing are a few of my favorite things from your channel :). Before I started homeschooling I used the Erin condren monthly deluxe because truly all I needed was a monthly view with note pages! Used one page per week and made categorized lists like your notebook. Now I have the hourly because I have more activities and appts to keep track of so I make my "general" list in the sidebar, enter in the day specific things for the week, and for homeschool material I include a small box with that weeks spelling words that we are working on (from tgtb but at our own pace so I just keep it as a separate list) and in the monthly view I label the weeks for Exploring nature with children curriculum so I can gather materials ahead of time. I do use a separate notebook for "lesson planning" but that's not complicated and done some time on the weekend as well!
Hi Ashlee, I enjoy your videos very much! I'm in the west valley of Arizona and homeschool our 12 year old son. I wanted to give more info on myself since I plan on commenting more instead of being a lurker of your videos. I see that we plan similarly; however, I use a large open flip calendar located on my counter in front of our morning basket. I've tried a cute planner notebook, but I have a hard time notating that way consistently. I have no idea why...maybe because it has a cover and when closed and/or located elsewhere then out of sight out of mind lol. I love your idea of being lenient with the days you are cooking your written out meals. I will also utilize more of the after church planning time idea. Okay, back to schooling. Thanks again!
What a great system, I think I might give this a go. Thanks for the inspiration!
Marieka Lake Thankyou
Love this! As a swim team Mom for both my kids I recognize all those times,meets and running! Organizing is the key!
Brandy Jenkins yes! Solidarity sister!
I really loved this video
My husband is a planner and he likes to know way ahead of time what's going on ie: plans for the week, dinner, etc. and unfortunately I have failed miserably in this area. You have inspired me to start planning out my week. My husband will be thrilled! Thanks for the motivation and encouragement!
I literally buy a dollar store calendar and put everything in that, which probably sounds crazy but works well for my husband and I so we both see it. We only have two kids, but I imagine if I had a CZcams business and more kids I’d probably need a planner. ☺️ I do use and love that Target meal planner! That’s helped my kids not to bug me and always ask what’s for dinner.
I made your recipe for Pesto Chicken last week after seeing it in your video. My kids thought it was the best chicken ever. It was a huge hit in our house. Thanks!
Love how organized you are! #goals
out of necessity but thank you
Love this! I have a similar system! What planner do u use?
I do my planing very similarly, but I don't have a special specific day and time when I set down every week. I wish I did, but my husband has a swing shift job so our weekend are sometimes in the middle of the week. I really have to write everything down even the daily house cleaning stuff, because I'm not a natural cleaner. I like things clean, but I can very easily go do something else and not be bothers by the dirty dishes until there's a mountain and sadly a smell coming from the kitchen...lol I know that's sad right...eek! Clutter and stuff doesn't bother me either so I have to be really diligent about scheduling in all the things you do plus the small everyday things or truly they won't get done. I also journal a bit in my planner about our day. I find that I'm not so good at know exactly how long it take me to accomplish tasks even when I've timed myself and given myself that amount of time the next day it takes longer or something happens and I'm distracted or I find myself piddling. So I'm always over planning my days. I love your simple tips about adding things to the notes on your phone that's great. I use the notes on my phone for a list of breakfasts, lunches, and dinners so when I can't think I have a reference. I tried it for my weekly to dos but I'm a pen and paper girl, something about physically writing it myself feels and good and helps me get it done! Thanks for sharing! I feel you did a great job and would love to see more of these very motivational, in fact I need to do some planning today now that I have our soccer schedule. Ps I love how you draw in your our check boxes I do that too.
Creekside Homeschoolers it’s the little things! 🖊❤️
Your my homeschool mama unicorn 🦄 reminds me to make things happen
God was leading me this way...and you just confirmed most of it! ❤ -- Michelle
On another note, I love your new intro and outro (ha?!) pages!!
Amanda Zielinski Thankyou!
Hey Ashlee! Thank you so much for this organization video. I'm going to try this system you have and I bet I will notice a much smoother week for my family. ❤ I have a question for the poetry tea times you do... I've never done one with my kiddos but I'm considering trying it out and inviting my homeschooling friend and her kids. I was wondering if you could tell me a few of your kid's favorite themes? Thank you!!!
Fall, Christmas, Apples, silly poems
I definitely have to map out what days are we doing a library trip or even just a visit to my grandma or my son and I can become very flustered with the lack of organization. I have to know what meals I'm cooking on what days because I live so far out of town that I don't want to inadvertently wait to use fresher produce later in the week only to find it spoiled.😣 Can you tell that's happened!? As far as the homeschooling part of my planner I just keep track of what my 5th grader has done and what he needs for his science on science days so I can be sure it's available to him. And then for the 2, almost 3 year old, I keep track of what we've done and what skill he might have mastered, like if he has mastered a letter sound or something like that so I know what we can work on next.
¡Thanks for this video!
Great video! I've been struggling with planning so this was very helpful and I'll definitely be adopting a lot of your methods. So easy to follow. How do you go about scheduling housework? Do you write down days you plan to do laundry or vacuum and so forth or is it part of a weekly routine you and the kids follow?
Oh and do you plan out your Breakfasts and Lunches?
If it’s like a big task then I write it in. My kids have their daily chore charts and so they know what to do! No planning on lunch or breakfast
YAY I love planning ☺️ Do you have a separate planner for homeschool things? Like subject by subject type thing? Also in your EC are you colour coding or is it different each month? I always try & colour code but I seem to always fall off the bandwagon 😂
I don’t plan homeschool lessons because we just do the next thing on the next day
Thanks for sharing! Way to be on the ball. Tip, put your hand behind the object you're wanting the camera to focus on. Then it should refocus and be more clear. Go organizing momma!
Off topic but I love your top! Where did you get it?
April Gonzales Thankyou! Target!
Ashlee, when you schedule your workouts, are you always leaving for the gym during that time? How often would you say you do gym workouts versus home workouts? Also, how long do you typically workout for (30 min...hour???). Thanks, curious minds. ;)
K Loves an hour each workout and always at the gym these days:)
Do you grocery shop on the same day every week? I try to make sure I have a meal plan set by the time Sunday rolls around, but I'm not consistent with the grocery shopping 😬 we eat 6 days a week at home, but sometimes I'm scrounging. I have to get better at it so I'm prepped for the next week. I just dont know when the best day to get that done though.
Lindsay Christian I do. I grocery shop every other Friday!
How do you plan for cleaning? I’m struggling with the deep cleaning stuff.
I have my daily stuff and the kids too that we do not write down, and if i notice a deep cleaning thing that needs done i put it on my to do for the week.
What weekly planner are you using? I didn’t see it on your amazon list.
It's an Erin Condren planner! It's not on Amazon. Google it! They're amazing. She introduced me to them, and I'm so glad I got one.
Would definitely love more planning videos❤️...love being organized & more productive😊 Have a blessed day. Oh...I bought & just started reading The Life Giving Parent- Thanks for the recommendation!
Danielle Hagen hope you enjoy it!
Does it cause you stress when something throws off your plans? I often find it hard to plan my week ahead of time. I have six kids four and under who don't understand planning.
Hugs:: different seasons. I don’t get stressed I just roll with it, Having zero plans stresses me our
I need to be more diligent in my planning, I trust my worthless memory too much lol. Very random question, but what is the name of the color on your walls?
im not sure the builder chose it
