Due dates, dinner dates, Grey's Anatomy dates, and everything in between- it's all there. Without my hardcover, pencil-filled, faded planner I would be lost. And by lost I mean I literally would not know where to go or what to do next. Below are a few thoughts from one chronic planner to the next- but hey, the first step to recovery is admitting there's a problem, right?
1. Color coding isn't easy, but a key always helps!
2. I promise I use the stickers for more than just doodles and designs.
3. I love spontaneous trips and get togethers, but I do need to check my planner first.
4. And yes, I do have to pencil you in. Pen is too permanent while my schedule is not.
5. I may look like I have my life together, but I PROMISE I don't.
6. The end of a year means the end of a planner. I hate to watch it go, but I love to watch it leave.
7. I make "to-do" lists just so I can have the satisfaction of checking them off #GuiltyPleasure.
8. If I spent as much time doing school work as I do planning, then I'd have three doctorates, the cure for cancer, and a published book or two.
9. Sticky notes are a must when my list of reminders is forever growing.
10. Shopping for a planner is almost as much fun as writing in my planner (& that's a lot!). So of course I need to know where Becky purchased her 16-month, pink marble planner for only $15 with free shipping!?!
Happy future planning, friends! May it be full of multicolored pens, endless highlighting, and completed checklists.
