I'm still working on the best way for me to store my EOs and related supplies. I have a fairly small condo where there is really insufficient storage. I'll keep you posted on this mission.
One thing I love to keep my ideas organized and to make sure I never forget an, "Ah ha!" moment - Levenger's Circa Notebooks. There are less expensive versions that Staples makes too. Much as I enjoy wandering the aisles of Staples, I am sticking with the Circa option.
What works so wonderfully is the ability to treat it like a spiral notebook, but still be able to pull out and rearrange pages like you would with a 3-ring binder.
I purchased some of the starter packs and a massive supply of the basic pages. More frequently though, I will print out pages that are from free printables that I found online.
For instance, in my main, large Circa I have pages that are:
- 'Dailies' - my daily tasks, tracking exercise, how much water I drink, errands to run, major appointments
- A page intended to be a shopping list that I use as a cheat sheet for several frequently used homemade products such as laundry detergent, floor cleaner, etc. It is a quick reference for the half dozen or so most often used DIY ingredients
- A page to list ideas that come to me for the blog when I'm away from my computer (I have a Google Drive doc that I use to keep ideas organized)
- A book wish list - this is the one I fill, then add it to the spreadsheet on my computer. Have I mentioned I'm a bibliophile?
- Weekly blog planner - just for the next week
- Two-month blog topic planner
As we go along, I'll post links to some of my favorite free printables and sites that you can explore. However, it is simple enough to just put in a search for them to find what it is that you may need to help you stay organized.
