Getting Organized

After I had forgotten more than one date with friends and family I decided it was time to be a grown-up and get an organizer. We used to put calendars up on the fridge with magnets, but our house is too fancy now (har-dee-har-har). Actually, the new appliances are stainless steel and magnets won't stick. Roger has always hated the  calendars so I'm sure there were ulterior motives somewhere.
Enter Pinterest.
I discovered the ARC system from Staples. (Sponsor me anytime.) It comes with this great hole-puncher for a measly $38 dollars. I tried not to get it, but ultimately knew I would never be happy until I got the damn hole-puncher. My advice? Get the hole-puncher.
The system comes in two sizes  - regular letter sized and a smaller version. I want to say six by nine? The puncher works for both sizes.
Because I hated the pages that came with my ARC notebook, I did a little research and found Pink Polka Dot Posie. Jennifer, the owner of the shop, does these great printables for customizing you own personal planner pages. She also designs other printables, including invitations. Check her out!
With a personal planner - you win a victory over stress. No more forgotten lunch dates, at least!
Thanks for reading.
