Quest for Organization

Tell me I’m not the only one, with a day-planner that hides in fear or email that laughs back at any attempts at order?

I’m determined to get organized, despite the laughter I hear around me and get my schedules, emails, writing schedule, reviewing schedule, the dog, all in order. Okay…maybe I’m just happy I can get my emails at all.

Lately, I’ve been reading,Sidetracked Home Executives(TM): From Pigpen to Paradise by Pam Young and Peggy Jones, who came up with the “S.H.E.” and back in October 2010 (wow, can you believe that 2010 disappear that fast), I saw how Mama Jenn of “Mama Jenn” shared her “S.H.E.” system and even the cute cards that she had made for it.

This inspired me to eventually get the book.

(Yes, I’m that bad at procastination).

Eventually over at Conservative Homeschooler-Raising a Generation for Christ, an online homeschool community, there was a lot of discussions there about the “Side Tracked Home Executives” and the “box” as it came to be known and I was lucky to find a copy of the book,Sidetracked Home Executives(TM): From Pigpen to Paradise.

If you want to see a great setup of the “S.H.E.” system, over at Mom blog network, “ConvientlySimply” shared how her system is set up, or you can drop by and read the discussion, “What is S.H.E.” to learn more about it and see how others have used and made the system.

I need to get organize…I just gotta…to keep up with well…everything. It would be nice to pre-plan and not have to panic at the last minute.

I’ve gone so far of, after Outlook wiping out my emails, in persisting to find an email/calendar/brain to help me keep track of book reviews, memes, blog postings, coffee breaks and more.

How about you?

Any tips?

Words of discouragement to keep me from trying to get organized to help me to get organized?

Love to hear if you use the S.H.E. or how you get organized!

As for God’s people, those who wrote the Bible were fallen and imperfect like us. The very fact that they have told us of their sins, their faults, indicates their humanness and their overall truthfulness. They could very well have kept their sinful deeds secret and not put them down in writing for generations to come — yet they did write of their faults, to show us that, though they wrote by God’s inspiration, they also were flawed imperfect humans. — Seen on the Internet
