How I keep from feeling like I'm running around crazy..."Grand Central Station"!

Sometime we have so much going on or so many things I'm required to remember that I feel like I'm running around like a chicken with my head...well you know. Anyways I've tried thing after thing to try to help me stay more organized. Pocket calendars, day planners, wall calendars...etc nothing worked they were either too bulky, too small space to write, no space to hold important papers and so on. I finally came up with this system! "Grand Central Station" consists of 2 calendars - 1 dry erase magnetic board w/ cork board at the bottom to hold extra papers & 1 regular wall calendar w/ a storage pocket for overflow that wont fit on the dry erase board.


So far it's working well. We are now into month #2 of this system. It's nice to be able to write important things down on the side "notes" section as well - like phone numbers, clinic names (for Grannie), and upcoming birthdays! I've been able to use the cork part to tack school calendars, box tops, money for special things, party invites and much more!

I wish it were a bit more orderly and organized, but it works for us so it's okay!

Sadly I guess this wasn't full enough as 3 new event dates had to be added after this picture was taken(this morning).
