It's a Date!!





How many times have you found that you have a deadline to meet, or a project to do, and you somehow manage to "forget" to do it, be too "busy" to finish it, or just found your bed too comfortable to leave? Haha, I most certainly have. So I created a binder that is sort of like an agenda, but with everything, almost the whole year, planned out with upcoming deadlines, birthdays, holidays, events, and so on... With it, you can't forget that birthday party, and although it may seem bad, you can't procrastinate with it either. No more explaining to your angry boss or teacher about your dog and her strange hunger for paper-like objects...


I got this super cheap binder from Office Max... FOR FREE! 
"How, Gracie??" 
Well, there was this sale... "Buy two get one free" and this was the free one. My brother picked out two Iron Man binders and I got the fireworks one. Have any siblings?? 
Anyway, I created most of the things inside of it by hand, so it isn't near perfection, but I'm still pretty proud of it...





First, I made little tabs for the binder out of scrap scrapbook paper, then taped (but you can glue) them 

onto white printer paper. Of course, I punched out hole for the paper to go into the binder, but that's really a given. You can change this up, but my tabs read: Calendar, Daily Plans, To-Do's, Things to Get, and last but not least, Contacts. You could really do anything like Dinner Plans, Grocery List, Things to Clean, Chores, and so on. In fact, the list of things can go on for a long while, but moving on...


A Weekly Calendar
Monthly Calendar. I got this off of a blog called Pretty Unpretentious. It's an amazing blog!

This is what I call a Daily Plan. I write what I need to do in the order that I need to do it in, and that's
how it works!






This is a phone directory from lifeyourway.net,
an amazing website that allows you print a bunch of useful things!






Above is a printable that I got for a weekly calendar to get you started!! Enjoy!! ;)
