If I didn’t plan my week–my whole life would fall apart so every Sunday I spend about two hours sitting in front of RHOA and Desperate Housewives and plan out my blog post ( just started that), weekly menu, make my To Do list and clip/organize my coupons/binder.
yes– that’s my little M’s sleeping foot :)
I really shouldn’t let them build up but I do
I love this thing– I take it every time I go to a store– people use to stare but now I see everyone with them
go to The Krazy Coupon Lady for details on how to coupon and how to get your binder set up! ( love her site)
notice I have an envelope for each store?– it’s easier that way ( but I still take my binder just in case I find another deal)
After I make my coupon list– I usually start on my weekly menu plan– I go through all my pins of recipes from Pinterest, through my favorite cook books and match ups with whatever sale is going on in the sale papers and make my menu
sorry for all the ugly pics but It was at night and I didn’t feel like editing anything
THEN after planning my menu– I go planning my post for the week
and THEN after finishing that up– go into planning my little K’s school lessons for the next week—- sorry no pics– maybe I’ll do a post sometime next week on our homeschooling schedule :)
So there you have it– our week is planned and ready to go — it took about 3 hours but it’s well worth it considering that we have a crazy busy weekly schedule– but honestly…….. nothing prepares you for everyday life experiences so even though I do all this planning– most of the time– It doesn’t go as planned :)
What do you do to get ready for your week? Please share :)
