Last week in my planners! I purchased the @passion

Last week in my planners! I purchased the @passionatepennypincher home planner for 2021 cause my checklist loving heart loves that the home daily and weekly tasks are preprinted in the planner. I’ve been using the download as my catch all for all I want to get done in the week. Sometimes it gets done on that day and sometimes I have to catch up. Last week was tough because most of my energy went in decluttering and getting our laundry room for the new dryer (which sadly was a no show) and feeding the crew. So I didn’t get as many of the preprinted tasks done but I did still get a lot accomplished. This planner is the workhorse and it’s messy but it’s what I work off of during the day.
.

I’m using my Daily @simplified planner each night as a record and reflection of how I spent my time, what I got done (I made my “to do” list into my “done list”) and my small victories and happy memories.

Been using the home planner since the end of October I do love that she gave us the download for the rest of 2020 so I can play with it before 2021 starts! Loving this combination!

Another 1000 piece puzzle complete! It’s a rainy

Another 1000 piece puzzle complete! It’s a rainy day that feels like a Monday. Anyone else struggling to get productive today?

The last tending list Tuesday in my Powersheets go

The last tending list Tuesday in my Powersheets goal planner for the month means time to celebrate little by little progress! Decluttering is always a goal so instead of putting a specific room or # of items, I put declutter anything!! And we did! Made good progress on weekly and daily goals.
.
.
.
Gotta say I love the @cultivatewhatmatters color coding markers. Colors are bold and bright and they make good dots and check marks in the tending list 😂 I love a good pen and marker.
.
.
.
I can hardly believe it’s time for November already and as usual, I’ll be scrambling trying to catch up on these last few things as I can before month end.
.

How are your goals looking for October?

You can check out powersheets at my affiliate link in bio! They have changed my life over the last 2 years!!

What should I read next? In the mood for something

What should I read next? In the mood for something creepy. Classic Rebecca or modern Three Days Missing by @kimberlysbelle , one of my favorite authors?
.
.
.
I updated goodreads for the first time in forever and I’ve attempted a few books this year but I have only finished 2!?!! Oh that makes me sad. I need to get back in my reading habit!
.
.
.
What are you reading now and do you love it? Reading anything spooky for Halloween?

I might have a problem collecting recipes and cook

I might have a problem collecting recipes and cookbooks. So the next decluttering project is my cookbooks and recipes. Inspired by @passionatepennypincher done for you weekly menu plans (she has freezer meals, slow cooker meals and summer meal sets with 12 weeks worth of recipes and shopping lists). They look amazing especially if you need new recipe ideas. Clearly, I already have a ton of recipe ideas so I’m trying to actually build a menu plan binder with the recipes I need each week so I can have my shopping lists ready and not have to go through this process every week. Besides a few family gifts, If it doesn’t fit in the binder, it’s going to get donated!! Wish me luck, there are magazines and cookbooks in here since we first got married 20+ years ago! Who else could use done for you menu plans? If you need recipe ideas, I do recommend checking out @passionatepennypincher !! I’ll be incorporating some of her crocktober recipes into our menu plan this month!! Fast and easy recipes is the name of the game here!!

Another planner added to my 2021 planner lineup...

Another planner added to my 2021 planner lineup...@passionatepennypincher home planner! We have been working hard to declutter and organize our home these past few months and I really love that this planner has both the daily habits I try to accomplish and weekly bite size house projects to tackle on our decluttering and organizing journey. I feel like having all these things already preprinted in the planner will help me stay on track and so at least I can flip through it and go back to it if i don’t accomplish a task that week. I feel like besides my regular cleaning and laundry routine, the other house projects I tackle is to fix whatever squeaky wheel is loudest or what’s annoying me the most. So I hope this planner will help me be more proactive than reactive.

I also super duper love that with the purchase of the 2021 planner, I got the free download of 2020’s so I can work on it in the meantime. That is so amazing!! Thank you, Laurie!! The only other planner that makes a full download available is the @passionplanner and I very much appreciate that I can start digging in to this planner while I’m excited without having to wish away the rest of 2020 to be able to use the printed one when it arrives!! I am also pleasantly surprised that this planner is larger than others I have (8.5x10), includes daily bible readings and a spot for daily dinners, gratitude and spending. All things I try to document during my weeks! I’m not an affiliate but I’ve been thinking hard on this since I saw it in @abowlfulloflemons stories yesterday. It might help me on my goal to make our home our dream home while paying it off!! This 2021 home planner is worth checking out if you’re like us and everyone is home all the time and you just want someone else to give you what you need to do so you can just go do it!

Anyone else out there needing help getting their house organized and decluttered and relatively clean with your family home all the time?!?!? 🤣

More 2021 powersheets goal planner goodness !!!
💕 updating The tending list weekly is one of my favorite things. It’s my monthly snapshot of how my goals went. and I would write on the back notes about the unexpected things that came up (to put my goals in perspective and give myself grace) and my happy memories and small victories for the month. It’s always fun to flip back on these tending list and see what I really did accomplish (it’s usually more than I give myself credit for). The 2021 tending list has more spaces for daily action items and less for weekly, which works perfectly for me as I’m trying to cultivate my daily and weekly routines. I didn’t realize before but they took out that blank page from the back of the tending list. I hope they consider putting a blank page or dot grid page or something at the end of each month. I liked having it to do my own monthly recap!!
.
.
.
💕 I love the simple style of the new prep work pages. The color touches throughout truly do inspire me to want to use it and make me happy just to flip through it!
.
.
.
💕 The color coding markers are fabulous, cause they are fine enough to be able to write with and color in the progress bars. I’m using these already in my 2020 powersheets!! There’s nothing magic about January, why not start now?
.
.
.
So excited for the 2021 powersheets goal planner!! I don’t want to wish the rest of the year away and the good things coming but I can’t wait to dig into the prep work in December and get that fresh start we need! 2020 has really forced us all to change our perspective and I think we can learn and grow from that to make 2021 better!!

Happy Powersheets Goal Planner launch day!! 2021 w

Happy Powersheets Goal Planner launch day!! 2021 will be my 3rd year using Powersheets and it’s changed the way I view myself and my goal setting!
.
.
.
A few of my favorite changes in the 2021 Powersheets and new accessories are:
👍 the rounded corners on the cover,
👍 the simpler color blocking of the inside pages, truly beautiful!!
👍 the prep work is essentially the same though fewer pages than years past
👍 I like that they incorporated the quarterly refreshes into April, July, and October. I didn’t really use the seasonal pages in years past. I love love love the way they incorporate prep work and breaking down the yearly goals into mini goals each quarter. That will be so helpful as we never know what life brings from one quarter to the next!
👍 I love the new action plan format
👍 more daily action items on the tending list for habit tracking,
💕 the color coding markers and
💕 these gorgeous new stickers that come inside the powersheets!
.
.
.
If I’m being honest, the things I’m not crazy about:
😐 monthly calendar is a Sunday start. I don’t really use the monthly calendar in the powersheets goal planner since I keep appointments on my google calendar and do monthly budgeting in my daily planner. So it isn’t a big deal to me.
And that’s the only thing I don’t care for! This is truly a beautiful goal planner. The vibrant colors, the quotes, the truths it helps you uncover...it can make a difference in your life if you Dig in and do the work!!
.

Let me know your favorite feature, or if you have any questions, I’ll be glad to help! My affiliate link is in my bio if you would like to purchase or check it out!! I’m ready for 2021 to be a fresh start!! How about you?

I finally got my October goals done in my Powershe

I finally got my October goals done in my Powersheets goal planner. I was struggling with the goal refresh pages because even though I want to make improvements in all the life areas all at once, I just can’t. It brought me down a little until I realized that at the beginning of the year, I had set 3 main goals because I knew I couldn’t do it all. And even though COVID wreaked havoc on the fun trips we wanted to take, I can still work those 3 really important goals that will truly make a difference in our home and lives.
. 🏠 declutter our home! Always on the list and we made great progress in September, want to keep that momentum going!
. 💲budget by paycheck and save so we can payoff the mortgage
. 🥘 grow my side hustles, my blog and pampered chef business so I can help out with that second goal!!
.
.
. My ultimate goal is to make our home our dream home, the peaceful sanctuary and fun play space we and people who visit can all enjoy. And to pay it off so we can get rid of that burden we feel so we can start putting our money towards more fun and worthwhile things we have in mind for the life we want to live.
.
.
.
I love going through the Powersheets pages, it always helps me uncover and dig deep into the hard things to find the good things. This month, my tending list is full of lots of small steps to accomplish towards those 3 big goals. Working it little by little so I can make progress everyday. I put my goals on the goal card which goes in my planner so I can keep them front and center in my mind and mark off progress as I go.
.

What are your October goals looking like?
