Pretty cool. Sharon — If you find a really good grocery list program let me know. I started using the Cozi one and was excited about how you can make many different lists for the 4 different stores we go to.
However, it does not organize the items into sections, ie; fruits, vegetables, dairy, etc. It is just one big list down the left side of the paper and what a waste of trees to print that out! Anyhoo, love your site and your research and suggestions. You are my hero for being so organized with 6 kids!
Aww… thanks Karen! I really like using my Excel spreadsheet list that I created and organized by areas of the store…. So far I have not found any program or app that I like better than this method.
Yes, that probably is the best program for grocery lists. Admittedly I run a small home based business, so I mix family with business on my calendar.
I found free print sheets I shall remain nameless unless given permission that I printed for several months. I grabbed a three ring binder and some dividers. I have my calendar in the very front, with business behind.
Place the calendar in front, absentee notes next, late notes third, to do list forth, etc. All I have to do is write the date, circle the name, circle the reason, sign my name. I started doing this five years ago when I had a foreign exchange student living here as well. I do the same thing with early dismissal notes — I pre filled them out and then copied them so all I had to do is to fill in the last of the details.
Every little bit helps! Thanks so much for including PlumLife in your overview of family calenders. I hope your readers will come give it a try. PlumLife is different than all of the others in a couple of key ways.
We understand that keeping separate calendars for each family member is great, but most families have lots of events which include multiple members.
So, PlumLife allows a single event to be displayed on multiple calendars and only requires that you enter the data one time. The other way that we are very different is that without leaving the calendar, you can communicate with everyone who needs to know something about the event whether they are family members or not. So, I hope your readers who are seeking a solution for their busy families will give it a try and let us know their thoughts.
Great post Sharon. There is definitely a method of calendaring for everyone. We offer a family calendar that is shareable not only with just your family account, but also with other members on different levels of sharing.
So, you can opt to let grandparents or aunts and uncles see the kids sports events. Or you can give an au pair viewing rights to your calendar until they go back home. We built our site as a family management dashboard so that there is a lot more than just the calendar. Thanks for telling me about this Kirsten! I will definitely check it out! A few people have contacted me about family calendar system that either they have helped to create or that they feel strongly about.
