Everyone Needs a Planner

Everyone needs a physical planner to actually write things down.

I don't go anywhere without mine.

I keep it in my purse.

I like the leather cover, with a Jan-Dec format, 

variety of calendars, maps, and blank pages in the back.

Write down all appointments for myself and my husband.

Keep track of birthdays.

I write daily to do lists and keep track of pretty much everything.

 I have checklists, wishlists, to do lists, travel lists, school lists... 

you get the point... LOTS of lists :)

I love having the year mapped out and being able to look ahead.

It's a great snapshot of my entire year.

I've been keeping a planner like this since 2005.

I keep track of birthdays too.

I have a gift tracker in the back.

I write down all birthdays and keep track of the gifts that I give.

This is a great resource from year to year 

so that I know what I've already given as gifts.

How do you keep track of all of your important events?
