Mom of 3. Lover of oversized sweaters, leggings, coffee, campfires and a really good book! My name is Emily. I grew up in a small town where people worked for what they had. This was before the age of smart phones and smart cars...when Christmas was about family, not gifts. When Thanksgiving was about being together. When families stuck together through love. Times sure are different now! This is a glimpse of my life. Welcome to my story.

Staying organized -- WBT
How do I stay organized? Hmm... I write everything down. This does include putting things in my phone, since I don't always have pen/paper handy. If I have assignments due, I almost immediately put them in my planner. My planner is my friend! After that, I put the due date into my phone with a reminder a couple days beforehand, just so I don't forget. With bills/money, I need some work. My bills are pretty much due around the same time, so I simply remember them. The hard part for me is keeping track of money spent to make sure we have enough for bills. It sucks, because I don't write down what/how much I spend and neither does D, and we don't usually tell each other totals, so a lot of it isn't accounted for and can totally mess up our account balance. IT'S REALLY FRUSTRATING!! lol As for everything else in my life, well, it's organized chaos. And it usually works for me...until I find something better.
