For as long as I can remember, I’ve had a thing for office supplies. Fun new colored pens & notebooks are one of my love languages.
When I entered middle school, they started giving us student planners and I loved it!! From then until now I’ve used many different types of planners and until recently, it was more for fun then it was for necessity.
Yes, I’m aware how weird I am.
I have entered a season of life where I have so many different schedules, to-do’s, reminders for myself and the members of my family that finding just the right planner is very important and not to be taken lightly.
I’ve had a MomAgenda in the past and really liked that I could have separate areas for each family member. For most of 2105, I used this Sugar Paper planner I found at Target. It was good but I needed something better – more than a calendar. When 2016 came along, I knew I wanted to take my time and find something with the separate areas for each family member at least and maybe some other neat features if possible. I ended up with a Day-Timer FamilyPlus and I had really high hopes for it. Alas, it did not live up to my expectations.
All this time I’d really wanted an Erin Condren LifePlanner. I just couldn’t justify the cost until I was a little more of exactly what I wanted. In the meantime, I watched Unboxing & Plan With Me videos on YouTube and would browse the Erin Condren site and dream.
Then I got the email that all planners were 40% off!!! I could get my first Erin Condren LifePlanner for only $25! I jumped at the chance and eagerly waited for it to arrive!!!
I chose one of the Good-To-Go covers as it was the least expensive option and it would have been very hard to choose among the personalized options. Plus, I knew that the covers are interchangeable and I can always get a new one if I decide there’s something I really want.
The Monthly View is great for jotting down the bigger picture items on your calendar – birthdays, appointments, general reminders. In the Erin Condren LifePlanners, each month has a new color scheme. I thought April’s was light & springy!!
The Weekly View is where you can go into more detail – goals, to-do lists, daily tasks, etc. It has become queite popular to customize & personalize these pages with washi tape, labels, markers..you name it. Check out YouTube for some great ideas. I hope to venture into – likely to much lesser degree – as I learn how to make the planner work best for me.
The back of the planner has a pouch with lots of great bonus accessories for your LifePlanner. They include compliment cards, referral cards and a sample set of “do-it-all” dots.
I am so excited to get started using my new Erin Condren LifePlanner!!!
