We live in a digital age, which is super convenient, but sometimes it feels a little impersonal. Do you remember the last time you received a letter in the mail, like an actual letter, in the mail? Or when a friend would slide you a note in class? When was the last time you saw anyone use a pencil? Paper-and-pen seems so outdated, but you must admit, the act of writing something down is still sort of nice. I often find that if I write something down, it helps me to commit it to memory. Plus, as I mentioned in last month’s blog-I’m a list queen. I love crossing items off, adding new tasks, and being able to see everything I’ve accomplished and everything that is ahead of me (and my busy family).
Last month, I shared some of my favorite organizing products, from personalized labels to a customizable command center. Still, I have to say that right now; I am all about momAgenda products! It is no surprise that these organizing solutions are on the top of my must-have and use ASAP; they combine the finesse of good design with the do-it-all features of a swiss army knife. Plus, with so many options available, you are sure to find the perfect fit for your family. So let’s dig a little deeper, and let me show you just why I’m smitten.
Do you ever run into someone who you haven’t seen in a while, and when they ask how you’ve been, you say busy? Yeah, me too. It is so weird that we always give this response; sure, we’re busy but is that all there is? No way. That’s why I LOVE this planner; it helps me make and keep time for myself. Between the kids and their practices and extracurriculars, my husband’s career as a mortgage broker, and my business-it can be tough to remind myself to make time for self-care. This planner is perfect for keeping track, setting goals, and reflecting on your day or week. Keep it next to your bedside and set a goal for yourself in the morning, or toss it in a gym back to track those squats! A bonus plus is that the stationary and binding are so beautiful that these planners make fantastic gifts for moms and friends; empower others with self-care, and you might find yourself joining in too!
I love this planner pad because it functions like my day planner agenda but is large and all on one page. A whole week fits on one page! I repeat, the entire week, for everyone, on one page! The pad is separated into columns for each day of the week with rows for general info and individual rows for kids. There is even a space at the bottom for meal planning, which is awesome because now that my teenage daughter is learning to cook, she’s been able to help prep things for dinner! Another reason why I love this pad is because it is paper; which means that I can feel good about staying organized while also recycling when we are finished with the week.
3. momAgenda’s School Years – School Memory Books
Oh my how time flies. I feel like it was just yesterday that my eldest was in kindergarten, making silly faces at me out the school bus window. If you’re a parent you know the feeling. It’s easy to feel like you’ve got to save everything to slow time down but I’m here to tell you that a key part of staying organized is making choices about what to keep and what to toss. That’s where this awesome offering from momAgenda comes in! The School Years – School Memory Books are a winning combination of record-keeping, file storage, and sentimentality, all wrapped up in a beautiful package. With sections to record teachers’ names, friends, events like field trips and plays, plus a sweet little section dedicated to recording your child’s signature. There is even a pocket for report cards, artwork, assignments, and keepsakes! Stay organized and keep what truly touches your heart.
4. momAgenda’s myAgenda Mini July 2021-December 2022
Everyone needs a good planner, right? I can’t tell you how often I pull mine out of my bag to check something, write in a note, or schedule a playdate for my kids. I love this planner because it’s small, and has all the features of the larger, momAgenda Desktop planner but it fits in my work bag! I only spend 2 days in my office; the rest of the time, I’m out working at client’s homes and businesses helping them declutter and get organized. So that means that I need to have a reliable planner and calendar at my fingertips at all times. This planner is also terrific because it is both beautiful and durable; after riding around in my bag for 18 months it doesn’t look ratty or scuffed. I love that because it means that I don’t have to feel self-conscious pulling it out in front of clients; it helps me look polished while staying on top of things.
We’re all busy but staying organized doesn’t have to be a source of clutter and stress. It’s important to fine the best systems and tools to help you get organized and stay organized and productive. Whether that means preparing muffins for the dance troop’s bake sale fundraiser or knowing which days your spouse will be working late on a work project, and don’t forget, scheduling that all-important me time – momAgenda has you covered. If you’re still not sure what is the best product for you, check out their handy quiz!
From notebooks to calendars, Organized Chick wishes you organized bliss in any form!
