Texture Tuesday | 2014 Organizing

Every year about this time I start dreaming of how awesome the next year will be! How organized I will be, what goals I will set for my business and personal life, etc. But this year, there is a whole new aspect to our life that has thrown me for a little loop! We are bring home an 18 month old into our home, and I will become a working mom! Oh my goodness!! I cannot believe it! So many questions are running through my mind, like time management, child care, maternity leave, how to get everything done while having a precious boy at my feet?

I am still not sure how I am going to do it all… well, here is the thing, I won’t be able to do it all.  So coming into 2014 there will be some changes, good changes to RWP (more on that to come!). But for now, I am taking small steps to help me stay on top of things going on.  Every beginning of the year, or every new school year when I was teaching, I was always on the hunt for the best and most amazing planner.  One to help keep me organized, room to write, places to keep a schedule plus mark off “to dos.” In the past, when I was teaching, I have always kept my work and personal calendars kind of separate.  Then once I went full time with photography, I kept everything on my iCal.  This pretty much worked UNTIL this latest update, and I just hate the calendar set up now.  SO the search for the perfect planner started again.  I needed a planner that my business and personal life could work together in one.

I continued to see THIS planner all over my FaceBook and Instagram feed.  I started to read reviews on it.  It really seemed to have everything I needed.  Not only did it have the full month displayed to see but also had full, big pages per day.  I photographed a few of my favorite parts for y’all to see.  Hoping to put it to good use this year! My only real con is the spiral notebook part… all my fellow lefty’s out there understand the dislike and discomfort of trying to write in a spiral notebook… hopefully it can over look itHere is to a more productive and organized 2014!
