i must warn you it's 3am and i can't sleep at all. i gotta lay off the diet coke with lime! so i thought i'd blog a little and then try to sleep. so today, boys and girls, let's talk about keeping all your mommy papers together in one place. all kinds of papers. where do i begin?
~~important mail, things you need to mail, stamps, envelopes, note cards, you get it
~~shopping lists and menu plans, very useful because you can go back and see what you made for dinner over the weeks when you need new ideas
~~coupons you plan to use sooner than later
~~journaling, just whatever the heck you feel like writing
~~cleaning instructions, yes i do this. when i tell blake to clean his room, i want it done the right way and he knows to go to mom's pink notebook to get instructions on everything from not only his room but cleaning my car and the patio
~~papers for school that i need to sign/read/review===school calendars
~~appointments, addresses


okay surely you get the point. but you gotta not only be organized, you have to make it fun. i write with my 80's sharpies. my pink notebook and billions and billions of compartments for everything from my highlighters to paperclips to speaker holders for my ipod.


i love the dividers with pockets and the clear protective covers. did you know you can write on those with a dry erase marker and wipe them clean? so you could have your own personal calendar that you just wipe clean every month. alright i'm tired so let's get to the pics lol :)

cute huh?

love the folders that are built in!!

dividers that also have pockets :)

cute colorful tabs

just an example of things that can be put in the notebook when you're done with them for the week. when it's shopping day it's nice to refer back.

just for cutes my sharpies :) oh how it's so much more fun to write ;)
