Re: Household notebooks
This one I totally didn't get at first. I'm all about crafty stuff. But this had me . I went back to it today, and read through the end...she said it's nice "to write down the date and all the lovely little snippets of the day". That I could do/would do. Maybe at some point I'll do a memory journal or something like that...I just can't imagine being organized with something like that. I'd personally stay as scattered as I am right now.

Re: Household notebooks
is it possible you are equating right-brained and artistic with disorganized? Organization does not look the same for a right-brained artistic person, but it does not have to be disorganization. I have learned that "disorganized" has often meant "trying hard to follow left brained ideas and use left brained tools and having them be ineffective".
"Organizing for the Creative Mind"

Is that a book? Right now I'm in the process of holding a sleepy but hungry baby, and when he's again fed and sleepING, I'm going to finish decorating my notebook and take a picture. |

I would like to get a household notebook together with a menu plan, grocery lists, grocery sales ad, budget, place for receipts that need to be filed, cleaning schedule, weekly schedule, and to-do list. I already have financial relatively organized in my filing cabinet anyway.

I've read "Organizing for the Creative Mind" and the things I'm going to try and incorporate this year are the To-Do list based on priority, a global overview of the month and upcoming months, and I'm going to experiment with organizing my day like the chronotebook (i.e. a clock at the center of the page and that's it).

Re: Household notebooks
Use it...love it! If you save her printables on your desktop, you can actually print them smaller, to fit in your planner. I keep a household notebook and a planner, and they match.

Re: Household notebooks
I know I still need to post a picture. I still need to take the picture. It's been a busy weekend and we're also getting the house ready to list it for sale...so hopefully tonight or tomorrow morning I'll post a picture of my binder.
