My New Years resolution

My resolution this year is to get my home and my finances organized. That small sentence requires some big work but it is time for me to get my act together. I think this will result in a lot less stress in the long term if I am able to accomplish this goal.

I just won this on an ebay auction.



It hold regular size 8 1/2 x 11 paper which is what I was looking for. This way I can type my lists and update them then just print and hole punch and not have to re-write things all the time. Now I will be able to keep lists of the things I near to clear out of my head. I am thinking of starting with:

• grocery list
• meal planner
• daily spending
• budget including a list of creditors & how much we owe :(
• Info sheet for each kid (babysitter info, health info, schedule of activities)
• phone/address/email list
• weekly planner
• passwords & codes to remember (there are so freakin many these days)
• Birthday & Anniversary list
• master to - do list (I'll print an extra for hubby!!)

One thing at a time but that is what I am wanting to keep in there. I have sent my payment and I'm really looking forward to getting started. I am trying to get hubby on board and paying more attention to these types of things, we'll see how that goes.
