Yesterday my friend, Dayna, asked on FB if anyone had ever made their own planners. Of course that got me thinking about how much I love and hate my planner. I love it because with three kids, a home business, sports and Andy's rotating schedule I have to have it to keep our lives organized and on schedule. I hate it because I can never find one that really fits the needs I have. I have always wanted a planner that I could use for me the way I wanted to. So since Dayna brought it up, I thought, why not? So this morning I sat down and started creating a planner that I would actually use. I made it the size of a half sheet of paper so that it would be small enough to fit in my current planner. Here's what I came up with...
I wanted a place to check off the things I want to do each day and prefilled in some things that I know I'll need to do each day. I also wanted a place to jot things down as they came to mind...thus I needed a notes section. I also want to be better about planning meals so I created a menu section. And lastly, I want to be better about daily scripture study so I added a place for that and will fill in my reading assignment before I print out the sheets.
Then once I had the daily pages done, I got to thinking about how I have to have my month-at-a-glance page because that's where all the details happen for each month. So I made up 12 monthly pages that look like this:
And then I thought...a grocery list would be great and so would a page to just jot down some notes now and then so I made these:
And then I thought that maybe I would share these planner pages with you so I made them all blank and added a non-scripture study daily page for those that aren't into it. And now that you've made it this far into the post, you can see what you can download for free today!
Yep...you'll get all 12 months + 1 blank month (in case you don't like the monthly labels I did), the grocery list, the notes page, a daily page that includes scripture study and a daily page that does not. They are sized to be 5.5x8.5 so you can print two per sheet of paper. You could even size them down to 5x7 so you have some more room around the edges if you like! Have fun and I hope you'll find them useful!
