Bullet Journal - a blank notebook used to organize everything you need to write down
Real Life
About a year ago, I figured out that I don't need a planner, an intense checklist, or an app to organize all of my tasks/lists/etc. All I need is a blank notebook.
Here is what my bullet journal looks like:
Here is what's currently inside:
- ideas for the blog
- things to think about
- long term to-do list
- calendar for the week
- homeschool plans
- meal plan for the week
- list of what we have donated in 2016 (for taxes)
- today's to-do list
One of the main goals I have as a homeschooling mom is to prepare my kids for real life. I love one of the points that author Jamie Martin makes on her blog: "Guess what prepares kids for real life? Real life." It was in that mindset yesterday that I gave my kids their own bullet journals.
