An organized hot mess – BusyBodyBooks Giveaway

***Congratulations to Stephanie @Mama23Bears for being the planner winner! A huge thank you to everyone who entered. Please remember, if you would like to order your OWN planner, take a visit to BusyBodyBooks!**

“Oh my gosh less than three weeks until BlogHer!”

“What? School supplies already?”

“You mean to tell me there are All Star baseball games AFTER the regular season ends?”

“Uh…what’s going on this week?”

“Wait, what’s today?”

Please tell me it’s not just me. Please tell me that being a hot, disorganized mess is actually quite normal. Please tell me that EVERYbody’s life is like this and it’s no reason to stress out.

Uhhhh…that’s what I thought.

Being a self diagnosed OCD-only-child-syndrome type person, disorganization is.not.acceptable. No way, no how. I can’t stand it.

It drives me C-R-A-Z-Y!

Our lives revolve around the scribbled up calendar hanging on the refrigerator. If it’s not on the calendar, it doesn’t happen. Period. That being said, can you imagine my relief when I opened up my very first BusyBodyBooks planner? It truly is an OCD dream. The grid, the little boxes, everything all in columns and rows – be still my heart.

BusyBodyBook’s weekly GRID, the one and only ‘side by side’ column format, is the tool EVERY busy mom (dad, aunt, blogger, teacher, student) needs to plan and coordinate her “dizzying” life of overlapping schedules; keeping it more organized and sane.

And, BusyBodyBook’s weekly GRID is versatile. Besides designating columns as individual family members, moms can also personalize her columns for: meal planning, tracking work projects (blogging too!) or even clients; personal goals (diet, fitness, spiritual); household, volunteering, holiday management and a multitude of other activities. Students can assign each column a school subject – which is SO perfect for home schoolers (which we are, by the way.)

Oh, and do you happen to be going to BlogHer in NYC this year? Is your head swimming with what to do and where to be and when? Guess what I’ll be carrying with me? You bet – MY BusyBodyBooks planner. I already have everything I need for each of my events, all together in one little book.

  4. Ah- I had a BBB a looong time ago and really liked it. Definitely could use the “Spring” one for the start of the school year and beyond. I don’t keep track of dates aside from on my iphone. It’s pitiful!

  23. While I use my google calender to run efficiently my husband is always like “WHAT ARE WE DOING?!”. So while I know what is going on it does him no good haha. Therefore I think I would really find the 7-Column BusyBodyBook UNdated weekly grid pad EXTREMELY useful. That way it’d be posted up on the fridge and I wouldn’t be the only one knowing whats going on.

Random.org, I hope you pick me ;)

  48. DeAnn says:
