Track it Tuesday

Update on Monday: Managed to Move Out that dresser.....it feels good...just to accomplish one little thing that I had planned to do!!

This is a good day for Track It Tuesday. I need to print and mail some state tax paperwork, pay some bills. and do some menu planning for March. I would also like to clean off the desk top....a job that I could probably do weekly...or every other day. It just seems to be a magnet for "stuff."

I am getting ready to go on a short trip (four days) so if I'm not working the monthly plan or blogging...you will know it's because I am relaxing with friends. I never usually go anywhere on Spring Break but this year decided to.

Track It Tuesday 1/13/09

It's time for Track It Tuesday...the day of the week to focus on lists, calendars, notebooks etc. I have decided that EVERY Track It Tueday is going to be the time that I look over bills and mail...those two things seem to accumulate and get here, there and every where.

So Tuesdays are the days to round them up and get them sorted and placed in the bill drawer where they belong. It's also going to be the day that I focus on my budget notebook and do a financial check up via the internet banking site. Nothing elaborate but just a quick check through to make sure every thing is being recorded correctly and coincides with my records.

For your Track It Tuesday...you can make it the same thing every week or you can mix it up a bit by picking a different focus each week...BUT the main thing is ....let's Track It and make sure we are staying on top of things!!

It's TRACK IT TUESDAY...and this will be a good time for a little tracking...tomorrow is the last day of 2008 so time to get prepared for the year ahead. I'm a little tired from all the excitement of the Alamo Bowl Game...M-I-Z....Z-O-U!!!! Whew that missed field goal and over time about exhausted me...PLUS today we are off to Columbia to have dinner and then go to the MU Basketball game...with some friends. So my Track It Tuesday will probably be combined with my WILD CARD WEDNESDAY...as there are lots of things I want to get set up:

• Clean out and organize budget notebook
• Set up Month by Month notebook for the coming year
• Work on January Jounrney Plans
• Clean out and organize planner that I carry...insert new calendar pages etc!
• Clean off desk top.

So it might take me both days to get through that little list...What do you have planned for tracking? Remember tracking can be as simple as your to do list for the rest of the week/month or as complicated as setting up a whole household notebook....BUT if you work on tracking a little each week...it helps keep everything in order and at your fingertips.

Track It Tuesday 8/26/08

Well today is a Track It Tuesday and it's time for all of us to reassess and get on track. I am working on a couple items in the tracking category.

1. Calendar and Lists: Since I no longer have clients to see in the evening...my calendar/planner has sort of been put to the way side. I need to reassess how I use this planner and see if I need to do something a bit different with it. Right now it has a calendar section and then a section for home, a sections for holidays, and a section for notes. It also includes an address section in the back.

2. Family Favorites Recipe Notebook: I am revamping my Family Favorites Recipe Notebook...I added some new dividers and am finally getting some recipes included in sections that I had neglected before! The first section of this binder houses my seasonal menu plans and so this is a good time to look at those fall favorites.

3. Desk Top: It's time for another desk top clean...sigh...when isn't it. I can't beleive how quickly paperwork accumulates and takes over the whole desk!

Well, that's it for me...at least for Track It Tuesday....join me....let's get back on Track Today!!!
