Scheduling Your Life

We’re sure you’ve got a master calendar at home, one day with “Sears Cabinet Refacing” and the next with “Dentist at 10!”but is it really keeping you organized? Here are a few tips for keeping your cool without losing it

Get a Smartphone: If you don’t have one already, a smartphone makes a great resource for busy moms. You can personalize a calendar that automatically syncs with your email and you can even set alarms all throughout the day.

Give Yourself 30: Make sure to schedule events further apart than you think you need to – at least 30 minutes – to allow for things like traffic, snack stops and even filling up the car with gas. The less rushed you are the more you’ll be able to get done.

Take a Day: Set aside one day each week that you don’t schedule one thing. It can be Wednesday or Friday but you’re going to need a day to play catch up and to relax – you may be running a household but it doesn’t have to be running your ragged!
