I keep a "when did I last" page. It's basically a habit tracker for each month (13 columns) for household items like: washing the throw rugs, changing the air filter, purging phone photos, flipping and rotating the mattress, getting the oil changed, and so on and so on. It could be things that occur every month, every couple of weeks or every quarter or maybe even once a year. It is just a quick reference sheet to keep track of all of that

Super cool idea. Often times, my cleaning schedule gets screwed up by life (usually some kind of work deadline) and I lose track of when I actually did vacuum under the couch or clean out the tub. This is a good way to check and keep myself accountable! Thank you!

WOW! You are A-MAZING! I just discovered you and love what you say and how you manage your life in your planner. I am 75 and often forget things. I am seriously going to manage my life in 2021 via a planner! One thing I need to remember is when last I changed the sheets on the bed! I always change once a week, but oftentimes, don't remember the day! It's going in my new planner. Also, I keep track of my diabetes 2 blood tests and note it each day, also I keep a monthly list, so a quick look will tell me a lot! I shop a lot at Amazon, QVC, and HSN. I keep track of purchases each day, and a list of purchases I am waiting for delivery. When it arrives, I cross it off my list. I purchase a lot, so I NEED to keep track. I have subscribed to your channel so I don't lose track of you! Thank you so much! I am a fan!

Hey Guys! Today's video is a lengthy one but its a good one! We are talking about my home planner setup. It's day 12 in our "How To Start Planning Your Life" series and we are getting into the details of my home planner setup. What areas do you have in your home planner?

Loved this!! I checked the tabs of my Home Planner and here is what is in mine - at the front I have the 2020 Christmas Dashboard, and I will move that after the Christmas season... then the tabs are: To-Do Lists, Meal Planner, House Cleaning, Budget, Gardening, Home Renos, Book Club, Trip Planning, Car, Pets, Password Log.

I am so happy you are back in your big planner. This is my first time using a big planner for 2021. And it's nothing better than to have inspiration from someone using the same planner/ system as you. I also have a section for Worship Planing.

I am so glad I found your channel! I've been binge watching - your style just speaks to me! Thanks for taking so much time to film and upload them.

Oulala I love EVERYTHING!!!! My sister referred your channel to me and I LOVE our organized you are!!!

Can I just say I'm impressed at how involved your hubby is. This was a really great video. Thank you very much.

Love how you have everything set up! Best wishes for a speedy recovery. I had all 4 wisdom teeth out at once! It sounds weird but I ate very soupy mashed potatoes, cream corn and finely chopped hotdogs. lol

Your cleaning routine sheet is genius! It definitely beats trying to fit all chores on one day, like I do way too often. lol! Thank you for sharing with us!

You have such a beautiful voice! Just found your videos and I love them!

OMG Your videos make me so happy and excited to plan and organize. I thought I was a little crazy because of the list I keep and my planning style. When I found your channel i binged watched your videos like it was Netflix's. Will you be adding these inserts to your Etsy store? I would love the annual pages in the future planning section, and the family section pages. Thank you for being you.

You are so awesome! I would like to see your tips on making similarly minded friends in real life.

Great idea. Thanks

Love this thank you

excellent ... thank you

I only have one planner but I do enjoy watching your content ❤

Thank you for the video.

Thank you ❣️

I was originally going to keep everything in one planner, but as I am learning about zone cleaning and routines and such, I realize that I need to expand a bit. My husband handles over half the stuff you put, so that means I don't have much for my own home planner haha. Still, great ideas to get me started.

This is exactly what I needed - I'm looking to set up my planner for the new year.

Thanks, loved this! Sousan

Good tips!

TUL tab dividers! Got it!! 🤗

I've been setting up a home planner for our house and this was hugely helpful. Do you have any links for the file cabinet cheat sheet? This is perfect!!

I never thought to use my colorful dots to set up my cleaning routine I did however use it for my sinking fund tracker

So many great ideas! Will TOM academy members be getting some of these printables?!

I would like to know what type of paper do you use for your downloads. I need your new budget planner for the big but is not sure what type of paper to use. I am really excited about moving the big size planner from classic.

I had a 8.5x11 Plum Planner before switching to the Happy Planner Classic. I found it too big. It barely fit on my desk. But I do wish that I could print & punch pages easily for my Happy Planner!

Wonderful job. I’m looking to also include: Page for website user names/passwords Sections for important info such as mortgage info, house insurance , health insurance, banks and credit cards. Home maintenance schedules and companies used.

What kind of sticker paper are you using?thank you for sharing❤

I need you to set up my planner for me! I love your set up but for some reason i get so confused & stressed when i try and do mine. Lol.

This series is awesome! Is making the bed part of the 15 minute morning cleaning routine, or is that just an automatic when you get up? The big dashboard planner is my favorite, too!

If you are doing a frankenplanner. You would need to go with Happy Planner mostly. The sizes are BIG (8 1/2 x 11) or Classic (7 x 9.25). I have a video on my classic setup.... hopefully this one will help: kzread.info/dash/bejne/omWp3LJpZqq6frw.html

Alaina, I'm hoping you see this and reply. I'm binge watching, and you mention several times in your videos that you have 5 accounts. Did you set up accounts at 5 local banks? Or did you set accounts up online? I've been looking into online banking, and Ally bank lets you set up 10 savings accounts. Do you feel confident enough in current times that we could immediately pull our money out of the banks if we were to use online savings accounts?
