In order to fully procrastinate (
and deter my mind from what is going to be an utterly busy next week due to said procrastination), I'm thinking about planners and organization! Since becoming a teacher, I've struggled with figuring out a way to plan my life. Now I
LOVE me some planners and lists. I put stickers by exciting things in my planner to give me something to smile about. When I was a social worker, I had this big, ole hour-by-hour planner where I wrote everything. For some reason, this didn't work for me when I started teaching. I didn't have as many appointments and didn't need an hour-by-hour deal. I've been back and forth between my iPhone calender and my desk calendar at work. I'm still pretty confident I need/want the desk calendar to have school meetings at my fingertips. I really want something though that is chic and I can carry everywhere. I want to have all my to-do lists, grocery lists, craft lists (
even if it's a bunch of post-its on one page) in one place with my calendar. Then I can transfer important stuff to the "family" Google calendar. It still seems like a lot of places to have appointments...but you gotta do what works for you.
Point being...I've been searching for a good chic planner. Problem being...I really think I need/want a school year planner. My life now revolves around the August-June school year. Meetings at school are scheduled through the year. In August, I want to be able to write all my scheduled school meetings for the 2011-2012 year (
in pencil, duh). I'm still scouring Etsy.
[Totally wasn't looking for a lesson planner, but I WANT this one for next year! It is absolutely amazing on the inside!]
[That's woven ribbon and it's a 2-year planner. You can choose your own colors too. I'm afraid the calendar boxes are too small for me though]
[I like the fact that this etsy seller allows you to pick the inside layout. There are some awesome options. This one is a contender...I'm just not a fan of the spiral binding]
[Ooo! And there's even an owl!]
Ok...enough procrastinating. I'm off to read one of my books for literature circles.
