My friend Lysa got me hooked on these way cool, personalized planners a few years ago.
Now, I treat myself to one every year. It keeps me on top of things organizationally.
They are from the website Much Ado About You. They have just released their new ones for the school year that feature August of 2012 through July of 2013. (How I like my planners)
They are whimsical. You can personalize them with your name, slogan or a Bible verse on the front. There are tons of colors and three sizes from which to choose.
You can further personalize them by having all of you important dates such as birthdays and anniversaries added inside. Comes in handy when you don’t want to forget your Aunt Tilley’s birthday. 
If you would like to hop over and take a peek at their fabulous products and see something you’d like, enter the code KAREN10 at checkout and you will receive 10% off of your order!
And, one of you who comments on this post will receive this large planner from Much Ado About You. It is personalized with “Live Your Priorities, Love Your Life. Matthew 6:33″ on the cover. A nearly $50 value!
Simply tell us what calendar, planner, phone app, etc… you use to keep yourself on schedule. Or whether you don’t use any at all. Winner announced Thursday.
I NEED this! I have been using “My Well Organized Day”, but would love to try this one out!
I use Google Calendar on my computer, but really need a physical planner!
I have just started using a Much Ado About You planner. I am a “gadget” girl but there is still nothing like paper and pen to keep my on track.
Just had to say “Hi.” Don’t see many women who spell their name like mine…..ours!
I use my calendar on Google the most. It is so convenient to be able to sync it with my phone and tablet. I always have those with me!
I am on the great hunt for “the planner”. I hope this is it! Thanks for the opportunity.! Whu-hu!
I use the jorte app on my droid but have a tendency to ignore my notifications. And since I am about to start homeschooling 4 children I really need a paper organizer. This one would be great.
I use a medium size Mead planner for all of our appointments and important dates to remember. Would LOVE to have one of these planners though.
I don’t have a set planner
I have tried several and haven’t found the one that works for me. This one looks like a good possibility!
I need a new planner for homeschooling planning for this year so this would be perfect!! Thank you for introducing me. I’d never heard of them before.
As a side note, I love the font in this comments section!
I have been using Cozy, but the digital ones still do not replace an actual paper and pen planner in my book. It is just like how I love my Kindle, but I still love to actually hold a book and turn the pages:)
I use a samll calendar that I keep close to my computer, sometimes I jot appointments into my Andriod phone calendarr.
I would love to have this organizer, looks great! God bless you, and thank you for your posts. You have inspired me to clean out the clutter of paper work at home, and get more organized.
I still use my weekly planner. I write EVERYTHING down. If it’s in the planner, it is NOT forgotten. I HAVE to WRITE it down. Have not been able to get used to using my phone calendar or outlook calendar. Not technoligcally with it, I guess. However, I would LOVE to have this planner. It’s WAY cuter than mine!
I use my cell phone (not an I-Phone either), to keep track of appointments.
I love the Hannah! I think I might order it anyway and if I win give as a gift to a friend!
I’ve been using a huge magnetic calendar on the fridge to keep track of our schedule, but nothing portable!
I think these planners are beautiful. I plan to order one myself.
I love this planner, I used to use one faithfully and then I stopped working and went back to just making list, however I am getting ready to start work again and will want/need something to keep me on schedule. Love this!!!!!
I use Outlook but sometimes pine away for the old paper kind!
I have a simple calendar planner from the office supply…..boring:) Oh how I would love this planner…..maybe I will be fortunate enough to win this. I looked at the website and see several things I like, but I am on a very tight budget, so will keep my fingers and toes crossed I will win this one. blessings and thank you for the awesome opportunity.
I use the calendar app on my IPhone but I keep telling myself I should have a planner to that my hubby could check too.
I just use a paper calendar but would love to have something like this! I need to keep better track since I direct a woman’s ministry in my church! Please put my name in the drawing. dk
I use the calendar on my phone, but if I ignore/miss the reminder sometimes I miss something. So still write it down on on a calendar that hangs on my wall so I don’t miss anything. This would be great to have!
I surely need a planner. I use the wall calendar but sometimes the squares are not big enough. This would be great. If I don’t win I hope homever does loves it and uses it wisely. Thanks for sharing.
I love this. I have a wall callendar and my phone callendar. I ca’t remember my name most days so i have to have something to remind me of dates and times.
I currently just use the calendar on my smartphone, however it’s not as detailed as I would like. I would love to receive one of these…..it seems fabulous!
This is my second year to use “The Well Planned Day” by Rebecca Scarlata Keliher and I’ve loved it. It’s a good help to this scatterbrain.
. It has monthly articles, places to write responsibilities for my kiddos, tear outs for grocery lists, etc. And it’s cute!
I use the calendar app on my iPhone as well as the notes function to make grocery lists, packing lists , to do lists etc. For my job as a paraprofessional I use a separate planner in book form. I really would like to have something in the way of a separate planner for my devotional/ministry/personal goals etc. this would be perfect!
This looks awesome! I am a pastor’s wife of a busy church. I am also a PTA president, working mom, And a cheer team mom. I would love something like this to help me stay on track!
I use iphone app called iCal!
Would love to use this planner. Love to be able to schedule each day along with the time.
These are great! I’ve tried keeping my calendar on my iphone, but I really need a planner I can write in! I don’t know why, but the physical act of writing things down is MUCH more appealing to me!!
Oh Karen, I need this planner. I was just looking at some and telling a friend that it is time to go back to a physical planner. I use the calendar app on my iPhone currently, and it’s just NOT cutting it. I am balancing my own business, being a worship leader every other week, my family, and training for a triathlon 5-6 days a week. I am blessed to do it all, but I need some organization to keep it all up!
I have been using these planners for years! I love Emmy’s creativity! Its the only planner I use even though most of friends have the electronic versions on their phones I always pull out my pretty planner and their jealous! As a teacher Emmy’s teacher plan book rocks as well! So does her refrigerator calendar and desktop calendar! You have to go to her site and ck it out! Thanks Karen for promoting my buddy and her great organizers!!
I use an electronic and paper caledar. The electronic calendar is nice because we share it with the whole family, it’s automatically on everyone’s phone, but I still can’t get away from writing it all down on my paper calendar too! Thanks for the chance to win!
Even though I have all these gadgets on my phone or computer, I still like to write things down.
i use a day planner right now. but its not exactly what im looking for. im not one for calendars on my phone – need to really “see:” it! This looks like a planner that might fit with my busy schedule! God Bless!
I use a Day Runner calendar with month at a glance pages and weekly pages. I totally love the one from Much Ado About You!!!! It has alot of personality and I love that!!! I also set alarms on my phone to keep me on track of things I must not forget! I also send myself emails to remind me about stuff to do!!! I obviously need alot of help!!!
~Danette
I use the Cozi calendar app. But still find pen and paper so much faster and easier to. Use. This app however the whole family can log on and see what’s going on. And I can set reminderes to go to everyone by phone or email.
I love my planner & don’t know what I’d do without it! I love having a list to cross off everyday. I just get my every year at either Barnes & Noble or the Half Price book store. The planner I got this year only cost $7!
I love these! They are beautiful! And I SO need one for the coming year!!
I use the Cozy app on my android. It is super easy to use, keeps track of the whole family, and you can add appointments and lists on their website and it automatically shows up on the phone, or add from your phone. You can make grocery lists and if the hubs is at the store and you think of something to add, just type it in and it notifies him that you need something else and what it is. It also has a To Do list and a journal. Love it.
I use a calendar in my kitchen and also the planner on my phone to remember important dates and appointments.
I am a calendar junkie…as much as I love my iphone, I have to have a calendar or 3 to write things down in or I forget. I have been using the one from Amy Knapp, which I have loved. This is definitely something I am going to check out though!!!
I love using my iPad apps and Google calendar to keep me on track, but I could REALLY use a paper planner to carry in my purse to jot things down. Pen and paper truly is convenient sometimes!
I’m so into planners…..couldn’t live without mine. Love this one!!!
I use my calendar on the computer, but I love having paper and pencil. There just hasn’t been the perfect one for me yet. I am going to check out the website!
This looks great. We use a monthly planner for our family activities. I really like seeing a month at a glance to know ahead of time what is going on.
I use Outlook for my work planning but really need a personal calendar to keep up with upcoming school year and family activities. This one would be great! Thanks for motivating us to stay organized and keep our priorities in order.
I have used a planner for all of my adult life – It keeps everyone on track and is kind of fun to look back on and see what we are doing. Usually I just get a school year style from Walmart with a monthly calendar as well as the week at a glance pages. All appointments and schedules for the family go in there and usually we don’t miss much
I was using Ical… I have to change, so I trying to see what to use now.
I have been using a calendar on my computer.
I have heard about and seen these planners but never ordered one. I am always on the lookout for the perfect planner and I hope I win this one. It looks fabulous!
What a beautiful planner. I purchase one yearly from my local office supply store. It is functional, but certainly not as beautiful nor personal as the ones you display.
I use a Mead planner, but would love to try this one!!
I use the planners from plannerpad.com…..check it out at http://www.plannerpad.com
a friend recommended it and I really like it…….. it has room for personal, work, family and church…..
I try to use google calendar on my phone, but I’m more of a ‘write it down’ kinda girl. Between work, church, volunteer work, my school and my daughters school I need all the organization help I can get!
I use my wall calander at work…..and try to add it to my phone calander…but i forget to look at the phone…..i am a pen/paper girl…
love this planner…….thanks for the oppurtunity to win one….what a blessing
I use my Time Keeper Household Planner to help juggle our lives.
This planner is so beautiful…I must confess that I have a rather boring calendar on my refrigerator that our family uses…if you have something to do…it gets put on the calendar. In the case of my hubby and I…first one to fill up the box gets to do what they need to do….However, I am finding that I need one I can carry with me when I am out and about….this one would be perfect.
May you have a blessed day…
Smiles & Blessings,
Robin
I found a site that sells paper planners that are nice (Paper Coterie) as I don’t have a smart phone. I had a coupon code to get one for this past year and now need to look for one for this year. This one looks like it would be SUPER for keeping my 5 kiddos on track…. Thank you for sharing the site and I would LOVE to win!!
I use my wall calendar for our family, but this planner looks perfect!
I use Outlook on my work calendar, a time book to record what I do during the day at work (I have to bill my time in 15 minute increments!), a giant desk calendar hanging on a wall at home for family stuff so the hubby sees what is going on, AND a wipe board with the weekly menu. Needless to say, too many calendars with the possibility of not putting something on the right one : )
I have tried several things, but am looking for something that works for me & my family. I prefer a hard copy vs. Digital.
I currently do not use a planner, other than my calendar at work.
However, I am prime for getting one.
I’m in the process of decluttering, thanks to FLYLADY,
Getting myself organized in terms of my schedule is the next step on the list to a more organized me.
Got an OLD hallmark planner that has all my birthdays in it from 1990! It only lists months not years so I only add new events. Still works but it might be time to get a new one! =D
Because I put ALMOST everything on my work computer calendar – if I am not at work, I don’t know what to do or almost always miss something! LOL
Thanks so much for this post! I heavily depend on my Palm. Late last year, I had to have the battery replaced, and send it to California. If I didn’t back it up on my laptop I would have lost everything! I really need a planner I can write in. I will be shopping at Much Ado About You today. I like technology, but nothing replaces a paper back up!
I always use a small purse planner. It serves two purposes – one is to keep the family on track and two is for remembrance. I have saved every calendar since we were married and have not only kept track of appointments but have used the calendar as a memory keeper of milestones for the kids and cute sayings, etc.
I love planners. These are beautifully ones! It would be a treat to win one. Thanks for the giveaway!! I usually get planner at Staples or Walmart. I often personalize them with a verse for the year or quote etc.
I use my phone which syncs with my work calendar, but I also use a family paper calender so everyone can see what is going on for the week. I have been wanting one of these since Lysa mentioned them.
I have to have a planner to live by. I can no longer remember dates and times. Guess that means I’m getting old. This looks like a really nice planner. Would love to win and then be able to order one for my sister who has the same problem I do. Thank you for this opportunity!
Blessings to you.
This planner looks awesome! I’ve been trying to get by with google calendar but it’s not working!
I mostly use Google calendar because my husband and I can both add things to it while we’re on the go. I’m a list-maker though, and like to have a planner. Not only does it keep my on track, it also shows me that I AM accomplishing something!
I am a calendar junkie too! I have three calendars – one in my office, one in my purse and one at home in the pantry – I prefer the ‘old fashioned’ written ones – nothing on my computer or phone calendars.
I would love to have one of these. I am very organized at work, using my computer calendar, but I need help at home. This would be great!
I use a small planner in my purse and then have a huge calendar on the wall in the kitchen. I have to have some sort of planner or I would be totally LOST!! Love the idea’s several gals are posting…such neat ways to track things.
These would make great Christmas presents. Loaded with all the important dates of the year – my kids wouldn’t forget my birthday!
I use a small freebie datebook in my purse and a clipboard with a printed calendar on the desk! Now that I am working a PRN job, my husband works swing shift, and my youngest is in high school, and we just got approved to be foster parents, I need something better to keep up with us! LOL
I use an app called Calengoo. It is amazing because it keeps me on track. It is customizable and I can invert the brightness to make it easier on my sensitive eyes.
I LOVE this!!! I use an old fashion wall calendar and my phone’s calendar as well to schedule everything and important birthdays! <3
I found that using my smart phone calendar and (most importantly) a “list” app has helped me remember things since it has an alarm you can set for different tasks. Plus, I always have my phone- you know, it’s usually with you everywhere you go! I would love to have one of these to keep my whole month/year organized! Thanks so much! Maddison
I have never used a planner but I love the way these look.
I’d love to try the planner!
that’s part of my problem, I don’t use anything consistently
I have used my windows calendar, but am looking at other options!
I love paper planners. This one looks extra awesome!!! I have tried to keep a calendar digitally, but I always end up needing a paper planner to keep me on track. Pick me please
I use Cozi app on my IPhone. I can send notifications (via text or email when the appt. pertains to them) to my 2 boys and husband to remind them of events upcoming and it also send a weekly update to my husband so he knows what’s going on at a glance. I can do my grocery list wherever I am and my husband can see it when he is at the store so items can be picked up without a phone call to me. There is a journal area for when when you are on on the go and need to document and event. And it’s all on my computer so nothing is ever lost! Love this!
These planners are awesome. I sure could use something like this to get organized. Sometimes I will put appointments into the calendar on my phone and sometimes I just keep things on the list pad on the refrigerator so that I see it daily, but something like this would be a tremendous help.
Those look do cool!!!
Would love to have this! I never make myself a priority- always making sure I buy stuff that my husband and boys need. I always end up using the free calendar from a charity in mail!
I have a planner that i love that also includes shopping lists and menu plans!
Forgot to say that I use Google calendar and Well Planned Day and for homeschool planning
Most of the time I use a calendar on our desk… I say most of the time because there are those moments like today when I discover that I have forgetten to write an appt. down. Thank goodness for “I’m on my way calls” or I would have been a bit embarassed to find a repair man at the door and me still in my robe!
Hi Everyone, I used my IPad to help me keep up with my crazy life. Would be super excited to win this .
I use my gmail calendar to keep “organized”. It’s nice because I can look at it on my phone, laptop, desktop, Kindle Fire….anything that I can use to get on the web.
I usually just pick up a large calendar at the Dollar Store and put it on the front of the Refrigerator using the magnetic clips I found online at flylady.net and another pocket size that I carry with me. I use these two calendars for keeping track of the kids doctors appt. and my work schedule. I use a journal-type calendar to keep track of my bills and to set up our household monthly budget.
Oh those are soooo perfect. I have been looking for something like this forever. Thank you thank you thank you for sharing this idea. I want to thank you for your posts. They range from scriptures, just a cute story, advice and recipes. I love the posts you have. God Bless
I on and off with a simple dayplanner, my work Outlook calendar and my hubby’s beyond normal memory
Really gotta start writing stuff down though….
Loved the Franklin Covey planners, when I was working. But now I just pick up 1 at the local dollar store or WalMart, but they never have enough room for keeping up with kids activities and doctor appts.
Love this planner!! I use a small purse-sized calender that Hallmark gives for free!!
What an awesome planner! I currently use a combination of a small calendar in my purse and lots and lots of sticky notes on my bathroom mirror. This planner looks like it would finally help me “tame” my busy schedule.
Yes, I seriously need this! I’m a pediatric nurse, full-time and my husband and I have two part-time businesses. We have 10 children and 18 grandchildren (under the age of 8). Yes, I really would LOVE to have this!
God bless!
I am kind of a planner junkie
I would love to win this one! I haven’t found the perfect one for this school year, yet. Thanks for the chance!
I am OCD when it comes to planning! I write down and schedule everything. My husband calls me his “walking planner” because I have everything written down. Since I am hardly without my cell phone, I use the app “Weekly Calendar” because I can see the entire month and what I have scheduled. I would LOVE the planner though that you have highlighted!
I really would love to have such an organizer for my life!! I use a small calendar I got at the Dollar Store and it’s okay but not what I would really like to have.
I would love to have something like this to record where the dolls I make and give away to kids in need are sent and when as well as upcoming needs and everyday life. I am a retired 72 year old nurse and writer with health issues. Good luck to whomever wins this great giveaway.
God Bless you and yours

Currently using a wall calendar so hubby can see it when he is home. Previously have used a medium sized desk calendar that I can take in my purse when going to appointments or meetings. Thinking I need to get back to that kind of calendar once school starts. Love the look of these. May have to order one if I don’t win! Thanks for sharing a great product!
All I have is the calendar on my phone. Need something fantastic to keep my while family on track!!!
I use the calendar on my cell phone, then transfer it to our wall calendar hanging in our kitchen (when I remember)! This looks like an amazing system and it is just beautiful to boot! Thanks Karen!
I have learned by using a planner that it is an essential tool for a woman to perfect the spiritual virtures a Godly woman needs to make time for God, family and herself. Being on time, being organized, remembering important dates, people and compiling lists allows fun time, rest time
and time to do good.
I have limitations because of Multiple Sclerosis and a planner is required for me to stay active.
Need something to help me keep the family on track. All I use is my phone calendar.
I use ical on my ipad and it works pretty well….also have a backup on my wall that I created on shutterfly. I love it mainly for the precious pics of my kiddos on each month. This planner looks right up my alley though:) Thanks for all the amazing things you say and do to encourage me and so many other ladies. You are a blessing!
I’m so frustrated with my high-tech computerized Outlook Calendar that the beauty and order this lovely giveaway would provide would be restorative & inspire me to get rid of this cluttered desk!
Most of my appointments end up jotted down on sticky notes…that usually don’t “stick’ very well because they end up lost or I find them after the appointment stuck in an odd place.
This planner is adorable!
I started using a planner many years ago & moved up to a Sony Clie. When the battery died on it, my husband got me an iPod. I use the calendar & reminders apps to keep track of our events & what we need when we are at the store. My memory isn’t what it used to be, so I need help remembering what is going on in our lives on a regular basis. I would be quite lost without a calendar. I still use a planner at home to keep us organzied as well.
Call me old fashioned but I just can’t seem to switch to keeping notes etc. on my phone. I like paper and pen! I have always kept a to do list and keep it separate by home, work, etc. But, now that I am working on a Women’s Ministry now at my church I am finding the need for an actual planner to help me keep all my “to do’s” in one place. Hopefully this will keep me organized so I can focus on the task at hand. This looks like a wonderful planner! And before you open in each time, there is scripture right in front of you to encourage you!
Make my own calendar… this would be so appreciated!!!
What a neat! These look really nice. Thank you for the opportunity!
WE use the huge space FlyLady calendar. Keep it on the fridge and all family members are responsible for putting their own schedules on the calendar, all birthdays, church and school functions, family gatherings, dr appts etc.. I also keep a small pocket calendar in my purse for me. At one time I also kept our menu’s on this same calendar, as family size dwindled this has dropped off the calendar. This fall my family is determined I will switch to a Iphone calendar – not sure this gal can make the switch from paper to digital.
Love this planner!!! I am a “planner” girl. I would use this one for sure!!!!
Judy
I love to be organized and must have a calendar each year! I love to put everything in it from birthdays to anniversaries to work schedule’s to my husband’s football schedule (he coach’s HS football). I would love to win a personalized calendar! Have a blessed day!
I have used Daytimers before but most recently I have used my calendar at work which is not working too well so I am ready to get back into a planner.
I’ve used several paper planners and some virtual ones. While I haven’t found “the perfect planner” for me, I do know I am better with one than without! I’ve heard of this company and will be checking out the website. Thanks for sharing!
Oh and I’d love to win the planner…just saying.
Blessings,
Becca
I use Microsoft Outlook – but I have 1 calendar for work and 1 for home and they both rely on my computer being up to date and available. Having a physical calendar in which I could combine both would be so helpful!
I use a Day Runner planner with month at a glance right now that sits on my desk by the phone. Planners are wonderful to write down appointments, birthdays etc. and I wouldn’t function well without one. These look very special with the personalization to take with you on the go. Thanks for sharing the website.
I am a very disorganized mom! My oldest is as bad as I with her school work, but she works hard to keep everything else inline.
I made a “GOAL” to Organize my life, and my families life!
THIS COULD HELP ME ACHIEVE MY GOAL!!
Looks like an awesome resource for those who “must” be and stay organized!
I use sticky notes and I really need to get a real planner. I have a desk calendar at work to keep me organized for business events, but my personal life needs some serious organizing.
I love using my Day Runner planner from Wal-Mart, and I buy month at a glance pages every year. I wouldn’t remember anything without a planner. Thanks for sharing the website. These planners look so pretty and it would be nice to have a personalized one to carry with me.
I’m using a calendar/organizer I put together using a Circa notebook (from Levenger.com). I think I would love the one from Much Ado About You!
I love planners! I put all my appts. in my phone, but at work I have an appt book that I use. These are so cute!
I use outlook but it just isn’t working ..I like good old fashioned paper
I miss using a planner haven’t quite gotten around getting one again. I use my work outlook calendar everywhere and my mind pretty much. And yes I have had more than one; those “moments-of-day-after” remembering i missed an important event nightmares.
I use the computer calendar at work …. but also need one for personal reminders. Would love to win one of these!
I use my Flylady calendar and the Cozi app.
I use my phone but need a paper planner so the whole family can see what is happening.
I usually use the free calendars that come in from the farm equipment stores, and our local bank. Sometimes I get a cheap pocket planner to take with me to meetings, but it all depends. Would love to have a really nice one!
I have been using the Franklin Covey planning system for years. This one looks so lovely, fresh and fun! Would love to try it!
xoxoxo
Oh I LOVE IT!!!!!! I think I may be addicted to office supplies, but that’s ok at last I am organized. If I when this it will actually be a gift for my mother. She would LOVE this too. As I get my love for organization from her.
I’ve been using Cozi. I love it, but I still just can’t let go of the paper. This looks wonderful! I love how personalized it is.
I use a large wall calendar for our family activities. I like to be able to see the whole month at a time. It helps me say “no” when I see we have too many other days that are full. I print out a copy of my weekly digital calendar each Sunday which includes all the weekly activities for each of us, daily chores, errands, weekly menu, etc. I hang one copy on our kitchen bulletin board and put one copy on my clipboard. I would love to win this personalized planner.
A calendar at home and a calendar at work plus lots of notes in my purse to go between the two. Not the best system, but it works. Sort of.
Wow, I am always on the lookout for a great planner. This would be fantastic to have.
I have a Franklin Covey planner, but use a basic calendar and to do list most of the time.
I use Google calendar, but also use a Daytimer planner which I refill ever year for the month-at-a-glance big picture.
I use a cheapy monthly calendar from the Dollar General. Right now, it does the job.
I need this – my calendars are scattered – one on the wall at work, one in my purse, one on my phone & my brain that really tries hard not to forget but is not as accurate as it once was.
I put some stuff on my calendar at work and some on the calendar in my bathroom at home. I need something better because I am so disorganized. I would be soooo happy to win this planner.
Oh my goodness, I could not live without a planner!! I have used one since I was in high school and when I couldn’t find one that suited me, I would use a spiralbound notebook and make my own. I’m sure I have one or two of them packed away somewhere. I now have my calendar on my phone as well, but still rely heavily on my book planner…sometimes I don’t have my phone within reach, and my book planner is always within reach. I look for the same one every year, but usually have to settle for a similar one….just so I have one.
I have used a couple of different calendars on line, but there is nothing like paper and pencil. I like the fact that I can save the old books and remember when events were. Even have menu plans on some that I can refer back to. Always looking for new planners with enough room for everything I want to keep up with.
I love these calendars! I try to get used to my outlook calendar on my computer, but I love writing things down!
I use a calendar with daily pages from a discount store. Along one side I write A.S.A.P.(always say a prayer, so I don’t forget to thank the Lord for the day starting out or when I need to remind myself even though the day is tough to thank the Lord for my job!)I really love the one from Much Ado About You and to think I would be able to have a fancy planner to make me realize how special life really is!!!
I just use my Microsoft Outlook calendar and have it synced to my phone. BUt, I still wirte myself notes and lists. Would love to have this!
I would love to win this planner.
I currently use a Day Timer that has Month at a Glance, Day at a Glance, A section for notes, Address/Phone Book/, Plastic Covers for Business Cards, and small pocket envelopes that i use to place receipts, medical notes for family, things to be filed, and one for Things To Be Handled Today. It works great, as I don’t have to replace anything annually except the calendar pages. Pricey to get started but after the first year it’s not bad. I love this concept, though, as it is prettier and more personalized. I plan to give some as gifts and would appreciate one extra that I can cross off the list.
The only thing I am using at this time is my phone…not a great technique! I started a new job and my old planner was all about the old job. So I am in need of something new and something different would certainly be a blessing. Pick Me, please!
Each year I try a new personal calendar, and it never seems to work. Basically I use my on-the-wall kitchen calendar to write down appointments, etc.
I CANNOT use stuff that’s electronic!! I just don’t like it. I like to write it down the good ol’ fashioned way. Right now, I have a binder with sheets that I print out for my to-do list and a separate calender to open up that can fit in the binder. This also takes effort, so it’s not the greatest plan. However, they are not together all the time. This looks like something that would bring it all together for me!! Please enter me in the contest. I love planners…. Thanks Karen! You are a blessing.
I have to have a planner to keep everyone’s schedule straight! I am “technologically challenged” so paper and pen is the only way. Unfortunately, I have not found the “perfect planner” yet, but I would love to give this one a try! So pretty, and it looks very practical!
O girl i would love this one!
Planners are also useful for Dr.’s Notes.
Writing down what the Dr. tells you about you or a family member or friend so you will have it years to come to refer back to. Our daughter has epilepsy and all the Dr’s notes from day 1 have been kept. So we know what works for her and what doesn’t. Even jot down dates meds were started and any behavior change to give back to the Dr.
We use the big calendar posted on the fridge so that everyone has access to it at any time and even the youngest can add her activities. Its centrally located so we all know where to look for it.
I have used one from computer and been looking for a new better updated way and this looks great looks like it has everything I need!!!
This is great!! Currently I get by with a large desktop calendar, but I really need a portable one like this, it would make life so less confusing..lol, ;0).
I’m a planner lovin’ girl!! Right now I have three going AND I share the cloud between hubby and my iPhones because I schedule all his massage appointments – and he needs to know when to be at the office for his clients!! Those planners are fabulous, making the custom, I bet I could get down to one planner and iPhone thingy for hubby’s massage business!! It would be nice to just have one!!!
I use Cozi on my phone. I would really like something like this. I will have to look at their website.
Most of the time I will leave a message on my cell phone and allow the alarm to remind me and I use my desk calendar when at work, your idea seems perfect, its like my purse take it with me everywhere, birthdays I always forget even with my method.
The planner I’m using this year is a desk calendar by Mary Engelbreit. I love her artwork. But I could really use the amazing planner you are offering, as my husband & I are going into full time ministry. I am anticipating needing to be a lot more organized!
These look like the perfect planner. I love having the month at a glance as well as the days following to put in my other notes!!
Thanks for sharing.
I don’t use a planner. But I need to.
I am currently using my Blackberry, but really prefer paper copies!
I SO need to update my planner ! I’ve been using a calendar given as a gift, on my fridge, and it frequently falls off as my magnetic clips aren’t strong enough to hold it in place.!!!!! This looks like it would be a great solution for me .
I think i use a different planner every year! I’m always searching for the perfect one! i use cozi and google on my phone,but istill like to hv a paper one also.
Before being diagnosed with bilateral breast cancer in September 2011,l learned quickly how important a good planner was and how desperately needed. Many doctors were included in my work planner . It worked but was chaotic sometimes. Praising God for good health and the opportunity to schedule other activities now. Blessings! Gena
I use a dollar store calendar and the binder system for household management, but really need something more portable and beautiful that I can carry in my briefcase and leave open at home. Trying to get back to being organized (I used to be so Organized
). This would also be a good witness tool with the verse on the cover.
Thanks for the opportunity to own one of these beautiful planners.
I am a paper and pencil kind of girl and would love to win this….I promise to put ut to good use! : )
What a cute planner! I use just a plain old yearly calendar that runs along with the school year. I have to write everything down or I’ll forget!
I have a calendar on my phone and also Cozi (see cozi.com) but would rather have something to write in. I guess I’m still ”Old School” ! ;o)
I use an At-A-Glance calendar that fits in my purse. I love these much better!
i use a mead one….cuz they are usually pretty cheap…but i wish that they had sections for notes, etc…so you have one planner that is versatile…cant wait to check this one out =) i might need a change expecially if i can get everything preprinted that i know about……hmm, can we say time saver
I use Pocket Informant on my iPhone. But for schooling my kids (7 of them) I maintain a paper based calendar. Every year I’ve tried a different one – and haven’t settled on one “favorite” yet.
I use my iPhone calendar but I still like to have written down for me to look at in a glance. I would love to have that beautiful planner.
I need this so bad!!! I need all the help I can get to get myself organized.
Thanks for sharing this site. I have struggled to find a planner that would work for me. Even tried a blank notebook and drawing in my own columns. But this looks like it might actually work. Thanks and maybe I’ll even win a free one.
I use the calendar I baught at Wal Mart. I have tried to get things on my phone calendar, but that is hit and miss.
I really need this. I would put it to good use. I don’t use anything right now and need something. This is really neat.
Confessions of the most unorganized OCD person in the world. I haven’t even hung up my 2012 Calendar yet because seeing everything I have to do FREAKS ME OUT!!!
It’s not just the seeing the schedule, it’s the “knowing” that I can no longer keep track in my mind that does me in. But, I need help because I don’t even know how to tread water, let alone swim!
I’ve just begun using my phone alerts – but only because there’s so much to do in the next few weeks!
Appreciatively ~ Jackie T.
I have been just using my calendar which hangs on the refrigerator. However, since my oldest daughter is getting married in July 2013, this could be a great tool to keep the wedding planning organized, and the timeframe of this planner is perfect!
I use a super simple Christian family planner, but I’d love something that is a bit more spacious and personalized, especially since we are starting to homeschool this year!
I have not been using anything, and my life reflects that!! I have begun to understand what a difference it would make!
I currently use the Marth Stewart calendar–from her line of organization products. It fits in a binder and I am finding it a bit burdensome. This planner looks like it is just what I need.
I use the calendar on my smart phone which is through Google. I also just recently started to use an actual hard copy planner to help me as well. This sounds like an awesome planner and I will definitely be checking them out!
After using google, ipod touch, and other hand-held planners I have gone back to a paper planner and this one looks fantastic! I don’t have to worry with syncing from my hand-held to computer. The paper planner is the only one I need! With the time spent trying to get the computer ones to work like they should ALL the time, it’s so much easier to use the planner! Blessings to you in this business! Looks great!
I am ready for a new calendar…the pages are falling out of my 2012 paper model…I just love the verse on the front…a great message to keep in mind before I add things to our family schedule…something that I am trying to be more intentional about!
I have used a planner for the last 3 years. I keep what I need to do, birthdays, anniversarys, Dr. appointments, and even my conformation numbers (on the day I pay the bill) when I pay a bill also the check number. At the end of the year I have everything in one book. I just love my planner.
they are great!
I am addicted to my planner! I tried to go electronic – first with a blackberry then with an iPad – and it just doesn’t work for me. I have to be able to write myself notes, mark pages, etc. I have used GraceWorks planners, DayTimers, Franklin planners… I use a different color for each member of my family, another for church, and one for work.
I try to use Cozy on my phone, have a large calendar on my fridge, a freebie pocket calendar in my purse and the Outlook calendar at work. As you can see – everything doesn’t get on one calendar and it causes problems!
I love this. I normally use Daytimer but I’ve been looking for something smaller like this. AND I love my name on everything. I’ve also been using my phone but I am a picture person and I like the written word. lol
I use a work planner, online Google calendar, as well as a calendar hanging on the side of the refrigerator at home! You may be asking yourself, why do you need another one? I would love to have this special calendar to add to my collection!! (Actually, it would replace my boring work calendar!)
I have used the same one from Reader’s Digest for years and years but this one looks so fun and more intune with ME!!! I so want to get one of these. RD sends it to me each year about now and I love the hour by hour appt times in it and I see yours has it too. I WANT YOURS!!! I am a mom of 4 boys and need to keep things in order!!! ;o)
I currently have a drab work calendar, a calendar hanging on the side of my refrigerator at home, and an online Google calendar. I would love to have this new planner to combine all into one!
That planner does look fabulous.
I currently use a planner by Helen Steiner Rice. She has poems, verses, and quotes throughout. Now I will have to decide whether to get another one of those or one of the ones from Much Ado About You! http://www.amazon.com/2012-Planner-For-Each-New/dp/1616264004
I use Cozi, but am not consistent in opening the app! Would love to try this.
I use a paper calendar all the time. I can’t live without it.
I used to use my Palm (cell phone) and I kept that bad boy until it was well past its prime, but it broke and no cell phone I’ve had since then has a calendar that I like. So I’m back to using a physical planner, and I can’t ever find one I like. I went to 5 different stores to find the one I’m using now, and it’s not perfect, but I decided I had to have something.
I’m addicted to my planner! I can’t live without it.
I use the large sized LILLY PULITZER agenda/planner. It’s fancy & still very functional!
It’s almost finished up though. I could use a new one! hint hint!
I currently use a calendar app on my Kindle, but I sure do miss the paper kind.
This planner looks beautiful! I currently use a weekly/monthly calendar from BlueSky that I picked up at Office Depot. I find it is really important to like your planner/calendar so that you will continue to use it. My son is getting married this Saturday and it has been so helpful to have my planner/calendar with my notes. Karen, thank you for sharing your great ideas with us.
I use the small pocket size calendar and my phone app. And STILL I manage not to keep them all together. I think it is that managing two calendars is just too much. I would love one of these calendars, but just haven’t justifies spending the money on such a tight budget.
Oh I want this! I was at the doctor’s the other day and whipped out my spiral bound calendar (much like what is pictured above) and the secretary said, “What is that? I think you are the last person on earth to use paper and pen still.” No iphone, smart phone, cell phone for me. . . I like the pen and paper.
I use a purse sized planner for all my appointments/plans, and I use a notebook for all my bill paying/planning. I feel lost without my purse planner. It’s kinda like a lifeline to me. Once in awhile when I have an important appointment/event, I will set the event calendar on my phone. I am hoping over to the website in this blog as I really want to check out their products! Thanks for sharing!
I just use a regular ole flip calendar. This planner sounds way more detailed!:)
I used to use the Franklin Planner, but haven’t for a long time. Maybe that is why I am so disorganized?!
I use my google calender and I also require a paper calender as I HAVE to WRITE things down on paper. I am using an Erin Condren planner but I would love to try this one!! I LOVE the verse on the front and the color!!
I live by my planner and use an old fashioned monthly calendar book. I love these planners and can’t wait to check out her site. Thanks for sharing.
What a beautiful gift you are giving someone! I am using a cheap planner which was all I could afford. This planner looks like it would be a great help to keeping my life organized.
i have been using my work computer but that doesn’t help the rest of the family!
There is nothing better than being organized in style. This beats my “sticky notes” by far!!
I use a big family calendar that I keep on the side of our refrigerator. I would love to win this planner!
What an awesome planner & great give-a-way–thanks! At home we have a huge desk pad calendar, which helps all of us stay on track of our app’ts. I use Outlook calendar at work along with ‘task’ reminders and a small purse calendar. Whew!
That’s a nice organizer…Let’s see – we have the large calendar that hangs on the kitchen wall so we can write what’s going on so we can see it every morning. I keep a small calendar with me in my purse because there are always things coming up “on the go” that I have to note about.
I use a 3 subject notebook…That planner would be heavenly!!
I usually just pick up a planner at Walmart or the dollar store.
Have used a Day Runner in past years, now use the Outlook calendar, but always love to have a planner I can write in!
I use a purse size calendar that has two years worth in one.
I got hooked on the “academic year” calendars/planners a few years ago – love being able to write in the school schedule for the whole school year all at once!
I’m currently using a weekly/monthly planner from Blue Sky Imaging – I like having a month at a glance with space to write things in as well as the weekly view which gives me space to put in details and “to do lists”!
We also have a monthly “desk calendar” – one with squares that have ample space to write in – that I add magnets to (on the back) that hangs on our frig – that keeps the family all “on the same page” when it comes to schedule and what’s happenin’ each month!
I would LOVE, LOVE to win an adorable planner like this one – have looked at personalized ones online, but wasn’t ever in a financial position to justify the cost at the time.
I love a paper calendar – I have an iphone and a Nook, both equipped with calendars, that I’m sure would be awesome, but I just can’t turn loose of the paper. Probably because I’m a list-maker extraordinaire and lover of all things Post-It!
So of course, a Much Ado calendar would be DIVINE!!!!!
I’m using a monthly calendar planner. Would love to have a planner that provides a weekly breakdown for different events and activities. Thank you for sharing : )
I start and stop each year with a variety of planners – this one looks wonderful!
I use Google calendar but need a physical planner for when I am away from the computer – this looks great !
I’ve found that I am plain old-fashioned when it comes to calendars, etc. I must have a paper calendar. The “master” calendar hangs in the kitchen and I keep a mini in my purse. Will have to check these out
Thanks!
I like to use a calendar based on the school year so I can keep track of my children’s activities and my subbing dates
We use iCal which is nice for the whole family to sync together.
I use a Daytime loose-leaf planner with a leather cover. I have tabs for the different “roles” in my life and one for “projects” ala Glynnis Whitwer. My best tip for keeping the family organized though is colored (ink) pens – a different color for each member of the family so I know at a glance who is where and doing what. The leather cover is also handy for sticking post-it notes to for things I don’t want to forget.
I made a form that has my water intake, to do & appointments-it’s ok but gets lost easily!
I love planners! Even in this age of technology, I’m still a paper and pen kind of gal.
I use a calendar but these are much “prettier” than mine!!!
I don’t really have a system. I forget birthday’s ALL the time. So this would come in really handy.
I keep appointments in the calendar in my cell phone (not an I-phone) and use my Portland State planner for school assignments/projects, so I can note details. I also have a “brain book” that I take notes (on events, phone calls etc) in, so when it gets to the appropriate place, I’ve already seen it twice and am more likely to remember when something needs to happen
I found you from Courtney @ Women Living Well. This looks like a great planner. Right now I use a mix of the Gmail calendar and the Toodle Do app for my phone. I’m more of a “hardcopy” person though, so this would be great! So glad I found your blog!
I could really use this. It would be a great addition to my orginazition process. Thanks,
I am old fashioned. I use a calendar and handwrite., although I am lazy and sometimes just do stuff by memory.
I would love this!! I currently use an online calendar through gmail.com for my appointments and I use homeschool tracker software for my lesson plans for the kids.
I use Google calendar and it’s sync’d with hubby’s. It keeps us on the same page. I would love a good paper planner too!
I use the Fly Lady home calendar on the side of my fridge. Huge spaces to write in and I love it!
I also use the Cozi app on my phone. I really need a portable paper calendar. This looks great!!
I use Cozi but mostly just the calendar app that was already on my phone.
This is a beautiful, functional planner. Right now, I use a calendar on my desk and little notes. With five children, four of which are in school, I need something to get everyone’s schedule in one place. What a wonderful give-away. Thanks!
I use CalenGoo on my droid, but would love an actual planner to start my ‘project life’ project.
That’s exactly what I need to replace the yellow post-it notes!
Sooooo cute! And i agree with loving the august thru july style!!
I have been using my phone of late, but would love this planner to be more organized with my homeschooling.
I keep trying to use a Franklin, and lose the extra pages, or just don’t bother with it. It worked well when I had a full-time job that required much organization, but since then it has not been worth the money. Would love to try these – love the layout.
Thanks!
Love this! I use a desk planner and my iphone. And yet I still miss things.
Hi Karen! Oh my goodness, I adore that planner!!
Right now, I use my iPhone calendar, but I think the one you have attached would be better for me because I am more visual and need something in my writing. Plus…..IT’S SO CUTE!!!!! I am participating in Melissa Taylor’s online Bible Study for Glynnis’ book “I Used To Be So Organized,” and this planner would put me on the right track! Blessings on you! <
I have a calendar, but there’s not enough room. I would love this one.
This looks AMAZING! I use the calendar on my computer to help me stay organized.
Gorgeous planners! I use the calendar on my phone.
Looks great…would love to give it a go, for certain.
For the past year and a half, since receiving an iPad as a gift, my organizing has suffered! Seems I am not as “electronic” as I thought I was.
Thanks & have a blessed and healthy day.
I use Cozi.com and then also a reguler cheepy planner that has montly and then daily spots to fill in. It’s not always convenient to get online and It’s nice to have something to cary around and jot in as needed.
I have been using Cozi for my planning calender. I have to be honest, I really enjoy having a planner I can write it much better. I have to agree with you…my favorite calendars are ones start with the school year!
I am a mom of two and a college student….I like to know what I need to do each day!
I use the Cozi Calendar App.
I just use a wall calendar.
I just use a paper calender – this looks amazing!
I think I originally heard about these amazing planners from your post last year!
I got one and it only goes through August, so this one would be perfect to get me set up through next year! I love it! Whimsy, cute, easy to use and fun to look at!
Thank you for the opportunity to win this planner!
This looks like the plannerto have! The design covers are beautiful! Please count me in the contest!
I just use a calendar but have to write really small. Cool idea!
I use a combination of Google Calendar, Evernote, sticky notes, scraps of paper, church bulletin monthly calendars, and trying to rely on my own (very flawed) memory. A pretty planner like this might be just the ticket!
I use my Smart Phone app for daily reminders for dr appts, hair appts, football practice, etc I also use a Vera Bradley day planner to schedule my daily homemaker to-dos, grocery list,, school activities, etc. Would love to win the Much Ado About You planner. God Bless
I use the calendar that flylady sells on my kitchen wall. That’s where everything goes. From there I’ll transfer to the calendar app that came with my iPhone so I can see when I’m out what’s going on. My kids are starting to go in different directions (oldest is starting high school & doing band, #2 is doing sports and music). I’d really love a smaller version of what’s on my wall that I can take with me. There’s nothing like paper and pen.
I love this planner! I wish I had known about these before I bought my daytimer on eBay
this is absolutely adorable. I have the Cozi app and also use a daytimer, because actually writing things down makes all the difference for me! Maybe next year I can get one of these!!
I’ve been looking for a new planner. This looks like a good one.
You know they say, “if you fail to plan, you plan to fail.” They are right about that. Maybe this would be just the thing I need to get me out of this fail to plan cycle.
I use cozi…it is an online calendar that has an app. It not only has a calendar, but a shopping list, to-lists…all in one place! You can set up different appointments for different people in your family and it will send them a reminder if you choose for them to get one. I absolutely love it! I make lists for everything! I have appointments for Cub Scouts, Football, Basketball, Baseball, when school is out, what is going on, important dates, birthdays…it is so helpful that I can color code all these events and know who is going where and doing what!
I use the calendar on my phone the most:)
These planners look wonderful.. How much fun to have everything printing inside for you.. yahoo… I use a planner from August 2012 through July 2013 for example from walmart… I have it with me everywhere I go.. Some peiople laugh at me because I don’t have it all in my phone but I’m just a old fashion type of girl with the date book… ha ha
I use Microsoft Outlook which is connected with my work computer and phone. However, I also have a physical planner on my desk, just in case the network or something goes down!
I use Cozi but still like paper planners
I’m so old fashioned, still using a monthly calendar on the wall. Might be the way to keep up with things!!!!
I use a calendar on my fridge. thank you
janita
I use a calendar but I REALLY like these and how is has the times. I’m going to shop right now to see about purchasing one!
I sorta use a cheap one I got at wal-mart. At least it stays on my desk, often gets buried, and occasionally I dig it out and write in it for the week!
I use my IPhone app but I really like the dolly pink one… I know that I remember stuff better if I write it out
I use Cozi online. It’s free and I can access it from any computer or smart phone. And my husband can use it, too, so we get all our appointments in one place!
I LOVE these cute planners! I use a dayrunner, my iPhone calendar, and a fridge weekly planner. Having one spot for it all, like this cute one, would be great!
I have used a planner for years, by Franklin Covey-their Classic version (have had 2 binders in the last 11 years). I take it with me everywhere-usually fits in my everyday purse. This way, any new appointments, meetings, events are updated right away in my planner. This planner is the nerve center of our family operations! I do have an annual calendar (Shelly Reeves Smith) that is held in an oak frame, right next to the phone ctr in our kitchen. Each month, I write all pertinent dates for the family on the kitchen wall calendar (taken from my personal planner). That way, the monthly info is available to all in the family. In addition, we have a whiteboard on the refrigerator where I post the family’s weekly schedule. Since we all use the refrigerator, no one in the family ever has to wonder what’s going on that week. I still prefer the paper/ink planners & calendars over the electronic ones.
i use a paper pocket calendar that the drug store gives out for free
Love much ado calendars thanks to you and Lysa suggestion, use outlook at work, my planner and another darling planner that my daughter buys for me every year, it’s Mary Englebreit, love my planners
I use a “mom planner”. I love the monthly and weekly options. This one looks fun too.
Right now I am using the always-glamorous spiral notebook. But these planners are scrumptious!!!! I looked at the website and it’s very pretty. This year I turn 50 and I have vowed to get ORGANISED! God bless you Karen and Much Ado About You!
I used to carry a small month-at-a-glance planner in my purse. I got sick of the time to cross reference info on that with my big calendar at home. So, now I just keep everything on the big home calendar. I use a giant desk calendar and hang it on my wall at home. We have a lot going on and I like the big spaces to write in.
I use my Palm Pre phone, but it just died today – now I’m lost!
I sporadicly use the calendar on my I-Phone. But for the most part I just wing it.. However, I don’t reccomend this system because things tend to get forgotten or “pop” out of no where. I would love to try this system as it seems simple yet complete & would help me to be more organized ( which I really need).
I use the calendar on my iPhone, a wall calendar at home, and a desk calendar at work.
I use my iPhone application.
I’ve been using my iPhone, but recently took a new job at my church…I have so many notes to take, etc. that I’ve been told a paper planner would work far better for me. This one looks like one I’d love to try! Thanks for the chance to do it free;)
I have tried different things including astrid tasks. I don’t use anything currently.
I mainly keep a family calendar with each person’s activities in different colors. As my kids are getting older, though, I would like to start my own planner again!
I LOVE this!!! I use a cheapie planner from WalMart, along with some self-printed pages, in a binder. Super neat giveaway!
I use outlook at work, but would love to have one these planners for personal use. I am reading “Made to Crave” and I could use this to help me get started on my devotionals and my daily planning on my weight loss journey.
I use calendar in my iphone to stay organized. Nor more little cards and pieces of paper that I can’t keep up with.
I love this calendar!! I keep a wall calendar near the kitchen, a pocket calendar in my purse, and put a few reminders on my phone (not a smart phone). I would luv-luv-luv to have this beautiful planner to consolidate all my dates. Thanks for this opportunity!!
currently use igoogle, but they’re doing away with it soon!
I LOVE my Much Ado about You planner. Can’t wait to get my new one!
I use a good old spiral bound notebook! A planner like this would be wonderful!
Wow, what a fancy planner! I just use a small mead notebook and 3 pages a week. One for a prayer journal, one for groceries, and one for to do lists.
Great planner sure would like to try it out.
My name is mary mary and they think I’m contrary…because I’m always late because of lack of planning…so it would great…to have all of my dates…all kept in one place in
that cute little planner!
I have a “busiest mom” planner I got at target that works pretty well, I also use an outlook calender, and a google one. I love paper ones though!
I use my Groupwise calendar from work because it syncs with my cell phone and e-mail from work. I really like pencil and paper though. This is a beautiful “old fashioned” planner.
I use a calendar at home on my fridge and I also have one in my purse. I get them both at the dollar store.
paper and pencil!
I honestly don’t use a planner right now and sorely need one!
I would love the opportunity to use this one!
I use the calendar from outlook for my phone, and a large planner… but this would be wonderful to use!!!
I am old school and still write “life” down on our calendar. I do think any type of planner could help this gal out! Thanks. -Colleen G.
I use the agenda on my calendar app on the phone,
Looks like an awesome planner, I use the calendar on my desk at work and of course
I forget to write the birthdays of all my family and friends. This year I have been so bad
at remembering birthdays it’s so sad, I definitely need to be a little bit more organized and keep
better track of those things.
I use my phone to keep track of our 9 children’s schedules but I’m always wonder what what I will do if i lose or break my phone – I really need to use a paper planner!!
I use my faithful purse size calendar from the dollar store!! It has EVERYTHING in it! My family teases me now that I am over 40 that “if Mom doesn’t have it in her calendar than she will never remember!!” Which I must admit is true.! I would LOVE a new pretty calendar for my purse!!
I use a monthy planner. The one that I love (because it has 90 or so blank pages in the back) is no longer being sold. ugh. SO….I would love to try this one! It looks beautiful!
I use COZI online…but really really need this planner to keep me scheduled
I normally go by the calendar on the wall,but as the days get busier and busier it seems I lose track of what I’m supposed to be doing or where I am supposed to be. I simply must get used to using a day planner again. I used on all through school and made out quite well. Thanks for your post.
I usually use the calendar with alerts on my cell phone or write little lists and leave them in my purse or on my nightstand. I really like this beautiful planner…
School is getting ready to start in a month – already getting PTO and other activities on the calendar for the family – Always on the look out for the best calendar to organize our week.
I would love to have this planner! Missed an appointment today! I make notes in my iPhone but forget to read them! Today is the day to get organized and this beautiful book maybe the answer for me! Thanks for sharing with us!
Soooooo love this planner! Personalization is the key to a well used tool.. It makes you feel special every time you use it. I am not an electronic gal and enjoy using a calendar book with a pretty pen! Would be thankful to be the new owner of this beautiful book! What a great website!
I use the Jorte Calendar app on my android phone and a desk calendar that I have put up on my wall. I was just thinking the other day about getting a new planner since all the school supplies are out. I would love to win this one! Thanks for the chance, Karen!
My magnetic dry erase calendar on the fridge keeps me somewhat sane;) Love these planners! My best friend has one and I tell her often I have planner envy. How fun it would be to have one of my own! Then I wouldn’t have to drool over and hug hers every time I see it. I wish I were kidding but I’m not:)
I’m currently using Outlook Express. I like having a calendar digitally, but I’m still partial to paper!!!
I am a list girl, but lately my lists aren’t cutting it! I am attempting to create my own notebook with a built-in planner, but it’s got a long way to go. I am reading “I Used To Be So Organized” for ideas. The one you featured here looks AMAZING!
Moms calendar. It’s great and functional but not as cute as the giveaway!
No planner here – but with ADD, it would be MOST welcome and helpful!!
I use a big calendar I get from Charles Stanley (has his photographs from trips), plus I use the phone calendar, and write me sticky notes. Everything is spread out so i write me a note to check everything!
I use a wall calendar at home and an Outlook calendar at work. I sure doesn’t happen if I don’t write it down somewhere!
For appointments and such, I use a wall calendar and my phone.. For things to do, I don’t use anything but my memory most of the time. A planner where I can keep things visible and cross-off-able might help me get back on track with getting things accomplished more quickly. ????
I have wanted a planner like this from Much Ado About You for about a year now. I use the calendar app on my Droid phone but would love to feel a little more organized being able to see my week and my day!
I use my iPhone but often lose things? I would love a pen & paper planner!
This year, I have been using a dry-erase calendar on the front of the refrigerator; this works pretty well since my husband and I can’t miss seeing it. However, it doesn’t provide much space, and, with our oldest starting school in just a few weeks, I think it may need some backup. These planners are beautiful!
I use a pocket calendar. Thank you for this giveaway
I use different planners all the time… I am still in search of the perfect planner. Currently I am using a Mom’s Plan It wall calendar and another mom type datebook for my purse. I also keep a clipboard with my to do lists.
I use the calendar on my smart phone but miss having a paper planner. It’s nice being able to see the entire month at a glance.
I would like to be a “techy” but I still prefer the spiral bond paper kind or a Franklin. Right now I am using Mom’s Plan-It Deluxe Planner. I want to look at the ones you spoke of today. Love the personalization!
I use my iPhone calendar and I also Luke to have a “paper” planner, too. If I write it down, I’m more likely to remember. I use a Day Planner for this.
Would love to win!
I’m a little compulsive about appointments, soooo, I use my iPhone calendar, a desk calendar at the office, and I have a calendar on the fridge at home so the family can see what all we have going each day
Obviously, I need to simplify and use one of these great planners.
Thank you for sharing.
I am currently using a dry erase board on our frig. We each have a different color of marker in order to distinguish who has an event. I just recently started to use the Cozy app on my phone as a family planner. This app allows my husband to look at the schedule and add things from his phone. It seems to work so far. I like the fact that we both can access it and add things from our on phones at any time.
I use a combination of a paper monthly calender that hooks into my binder of everything in addition to my phone calendar. While I don’t LOVE the efficiency of it, it works the best of anything I have tried.
I use the Outlook Calendar at work. I really need to get better organized and keep track of everything I have going on. This would be a great way of doing it.
I love the idea of the planner. I use the calendar on my phone and set the alarm as a reminder. I also use my calendar in outlook and a small planner I carry in my purse. With 5 grandchild, meetings at church, doctor appointments and everyday life it is hard to keep up with everything. I would love to win this planner to see if I could finally manage my schedule.
I use my iphone calendar which synchs to my work calendar, as well as random sticky notes, a dayplanner I occasionally use and my memory-yes, a bit of a jumbled mess! Thanks for the contest! love your site and encourgement!
I use the calendar in my iPod most often because I can access it all the time – it is always with me and it’s easy to use. I also use Cozi because of the lists and the ability for everyone in the family to access it & add to it – not that they do! I can also set practice & game schedules without excessive writing, and send notifications to the family, which I like! But because I don’t yet have a smartphone, I can’t access it outside the house! Every week I put our weekly schedule on a big white board in the kitchen (hub of our house) so everyone knows what’s up for the week. As things come up, a qucik glance at the board lets us know if we are available! It took me a long time to switch over from paper to electronic, but I prefer paper, as I’m always afraid of losing my electronic claendar to an errant keystroke or orther malfunction. It has happened in the past! And it was chaos!!!!
I’m not using anything at the moment but a calendar on the fridge each month. I’ve been wanting to check out the Cozi app for quite sometime, though!
Love, Love, Love this planner!!!! I use a planner for the year that goes with me EVERYWHERE!!! .I also have two wall calendars (one @ work and one @ home) and Microsoft Outlook! I figure I’ll surely have it right by one calendar!
Blessings for a great day! ~Marsha~
I use a planner all the time. I even keep it beside my bed so I can write down those irksome little things that can keep you awake because you’re afraid you’ll forget to do them in the morning. Once I write it down, I can sleep peacefully. Mine is expiring today, so would love to try out yours. May God bless you as much as He has used your blogs to bless me.
Right now I use the Mom’s Weekly Planner 18 month version. I love that the planner you are giving away is based on the school calendar! I am slowly getting into the habit of using my droid calendar.
Keep being a blessing!
My husband bought me an IPhone and I love it. I havn;t learned fully how to use the calender, but I am working on it!
Hello,
As far as scheduling, I am a busy single mom of two ( a 4-year-old and a 1-year-old) and a teacher. My summer is winding up and soon I will be back to school teaching in my special education classroom. My life is busy and full of appointments and meetings and lesson planning. I am generally very organized, I have to be! But I have had a difficult time finding a planner that is laid out the way I need it to be, and the ones I have seen on this website look just right! I’ve resorted to printing off pages from my computer and writing everything in but it’s not something I can bring with me wherever I go and quite honestly, it’s not pretty like these ones are. I need something I can touch and flip through and write in, which is why my phone just won’t do!
Thanks so much!

I try to keep everything on my calendar on my phone.
I use google calendar on my computer but I also love having a planner I can write things down. I get great satisfaction marking the days off and making lists and marking things off those lists. So I have a great calendar by Orange Circle Studio called The Do it All Mom Planner. It has shopping list pages, stickers for special events, school events, doctor visits, etc. Would love to try this new planner.
O my Goodness I love this..raising three grandchildren , with school fixing to start,also our first year in sports!! I have to have one of these!
I have a big desktop calendar on my computer table.. I like the idea of the planner though. Something I could carry with me, and still stick with actually writing things down. Tried the electronic route, but would forget to double check it.
I am not organized about my organization
I have a calendar on the fridge so that I can see it all day, a planner by the phone, and sometimes in my purse, and sticky notes above the sink if it’s really important! I am really afraid to forget things 
I don’t have a planner. I ususally write everything on my calendar I keep on the fridge. I would like to win a day planner because I think it would help me to better plan our homeschool days. I struggle with that sometimes. Thank you Karen!
Right now I use an 8.5×11 binder, it was easier to print off forms. I tried a smaller one but it was hard to make the forms myself just so they would fit. I would love to go back to a smaller binder that I could carry with me!
I use the calendar on my cell phone, and I also keep a paper calendar on the kitchen countertop. I will never give up paper! Cell phones get lost, stolen, or they poop out. Believe me, I’ve had all three happen! So my paper calendar is VERY important. I’d love to have this fancy version.
I like to have an old fashion pen and paper calendar on my desk but also us icloud when I’m out and about.
i use an adorable calendar on my wall, but not to helpful if i am out and about… guess i could use a planner.
I do not use any kind of planner. I do not understand how to use a smartphone, IPad, or any of those things and I just have not found a planner I like using. If I should be blessed with winning this planner, I know I would put it to good use. It looks like it would be the one to help me not miss any important appointments and help keep my busy schedule on track.
I like this planner! I use the flylady wall calendar, but a “walk around” journal would be grand!
I love me a good old fashioned, spiral bound planner! This looks awesome!
I have a binder with a calendar inside & every month it gets transferred to a dry erase board on the wall where everyone can see it. Everyone has their own color so at a glance you can tell who has what going on where they need to be. I would love to have an already-together planner where school/home is in one place. I print forms from different websites to make up my current planner.
This planner looks great. I love to plan and schedule and make lists.
I use a list app on my phone and a spiral notebook – not fancy but certainly econcomial. But I’d love a pretty organizer
I use the giant wall calendar, no pictures, just large boxes for each day. It has worked well, but gets quite full at times. Those boxes could be larger
we keep it in our kitchen by the entry door so that our entire family can see it and stay on the same track. A downfall is, some of our guests that stop by find it their business to read our family’s calendar…some even comment on doctors visits, etc. But, its better than notjing. Really like these planners!!!
I am working on trying to get myself organized at home and must say that this calendar looks wonderful. My husband would be very happy if I won this calendar.
For work I use the Franklin Covey Planner.

I currently use the “organizeher” line from Target and my Calendar app on my phone! I’ve got the planner, contacts book and magnetic calendar! I would love love love to have everything in one place though, this sounds amazing!
I use iCal, but am not a huge fan. I remember things much better when I actually write them down. And then of course we have the calendar on the kitchen wall, but that’s mostly for the kids’ activities.
I use my email calendar for bills (need the pop-up reminders!) and a wall calendar for appointments (doctor, dentist, etc.). This personalized calendar looks like fun!
Very cool! We are constantly looking for something that will help us to organize all of my doc appts & allow me to record all of my seizures accurately. As well, we have to record my hubby’s visits at MD anderson and when he can be home to help take care of our daughter since it is not safe for me to be alone with her due to all of my seizures. She was just diagnosed with Juvenile Arthritis and so we’ve added even more doc appts to the schedule. I would love to have such a detailed yet simple view.
Awesome planner! I have many mini-planners & I think I need 1 Bigger to keep everything in one place so this would help.
I also use Cozi–it is really great for planning for the entire family. However, I would still like to use the planner that you talked about. I still like to keep a paper planner for times when it is just not possible to get on the internet.
I currently use the calendar on my phone but I need, need, need a good paper planner! Thanks for the contest!!!
Great planners. Love your site and your books.
used to be really organized with a planner but have let things slide alot over the past several years – this would be a great way to get things back on track!
Oh I want to win this! I have been using my iPhone calendar but I hate it. I need to be able to see it all written out in front of me….. But have other family expenses that are a priority first. Thanks for the opportunity.
I use a large wall calendar to keep track of my 4 kids and hubby.
With my ADHD, I use whatever scrap paper is in front of me, or my hand!!!!
Wow. Just wow. This is exactly what I’ve been looking for, but it is way beyond my budget this year. I will definitely save my pennies for next year though. Thank you for sharing! I love how this cover reminds you of priorities. I’m sure it will bless the one who wins..
I use cozi calendar that sends me email reminders – and I can look at it from my I Touch. I love these planners though! I’d love to have one!
Currently using Cozi.com. Not really working for me…I need to go back to a paper planner!
I could use this as meetings are happening this month to plan the school year’s activities! I still use the old fashion wall calendar in the kitchen!
I use any calender. Would love to get organized! If I win this I will use it! Thanks for the especial!
I have been trying to find a good planner for months now. I have even tried to make one so that i could personalize it and have inspirational versus to keep me going everyday but, it is not as easy as it looks. So I have been using sticky notes and forgetting or missing so many things and events. I love that versus on the planner in the picture.
I have been using an Erin Condren. It is nice, but I am in need of a new one and would love to try something new.
I’m trying to use an at-a-glance issued by the office and it’s simply NOT working. I need to find a better option and this definitely looks like a possibility.
I have seen these before through Lysa’s blog. They look just beautiful!! I use my calender through my google mail. But I miss it being written down in the physical way!
I tried to use my IPhone for a calendar but have failed miserably. I need the paper planner — love these. Thanks for the code of 10% off. Blessings.
Live Your Priorities. Love Your Life. Beautiful thought. I long for that. I use a three-ring notebook. I tend to grab a piece of paper in front of me to make notes. you know what happens…….I soon have unwanted clutter. This item is lovely.
I generally use the Cozi app for iPhones. It’s great for checklists and keeping track of multiple schedules for a busy family. But recently I’ve reverted back to a good ole fashioned girly spiral notepad where I can jot down all my random thoughts and to do’s. The upsides: no charging required and no extra data charges for using it without wifi!
What a beautiful, happy planner! I could certainly use that to schedule my busy daily life all in one inclusive planner!
)
I use 4 different calendars to schedule for business, home, personal, holidays…
I so enjoy reading all of the daily tips for making our lives happier and less complicated.
PLANNER….???? What’s a PLANNER??? HA! Would love this organization in my life! Going to need it even more as God leads in the ministry! Right now, the best I can do is to remember to get OUT of bed!!! Loved your key note presentation at She Speaks 2012!
love this,sure I use an office supply planner right now and dislike it with a passion….sure would be a blessing to win such a pretty one.
I use the Mom’s Home Plan-It magnetic calendar for our fridge to list all of our family activities. This way, everyone can see what is going on! I also use Google Calendar to keep track of everything when I’m on the go. I will also check out Much Ado About You though because that planner is so neat! Thanks for sharing!
I NEED this. It would help keep my family and business organized and together. Love it!!
I’ve been using a planner for years…it has each week by day &a monthly overview. But since I got my smartphone I’ve been trying to move into the calendar on it. It’s just not the same!
I use my purse calendar to keep my days straight.
I use the calendar in my phone.
I currently use a side of the fridge magnetic calendar to keep us all on track; this planner is so much nicer looking, though!
I have always been a big Franklin Covey fan, but now that I am home and not in the business world it is a bit too much. This looks perfect!
I haven’t been able to find a good planner for three years now. This one looks awesome! I need to keep Mom’s schedule, my schedule, and my grandchildren’s schedules.
I actually just use my fridge calendar! Every year I try to use a day planner type calendar, but I never stay faithful to it. I actually just found my empty 2010 calendar! That was a kick in the gut to throw away. What a waste! I guess that is pretty telling of how that year went down. Little kids and big (not-so-good) events in life. Would love to try again with one of these planners. P.S. I used to be one of the most organized people around!
I’m old school – pencil, calendar, post-its & to-do list. : )
You are so right, Karen! These are the most incredible planners in the world and I have one too!! I got hooked after seeing Lysa post about it sometime last fall. And I was just thinking…I need to order my next planner!! Love it…I am still a “write it down” kinda girl!

I use google calendar because it syncs my phone and my work computer. Right now I’m also using a paper calendar that I purchased at target. I like the computer calendar but I also like paper so I can keep notes and any loose papers that I may need for those appointments. I’m going to be sure and check out these planners!
I have tried many organizers. Currently I use a Simply Chic notebook from Jackie. Cost @ $2.00. I personalize and use those cute little post-it tabs to mark my pages I keep a purse calendar and a separate address book. This is how I roll. Would love to try something new as I am always out to be more organized…lol!
I have an auto-delete memory at times
and I’m using a simple small planner just to keep me on track with appointments and schedules. Thanks for your post on this fabulous planner. I would love to have one of that. Thanks and God bless you!
I try to rely on Outlook – my iphone & computer are synched but still end up with an array of sticky notes along with several spiral notebooks. I don’t have a problem handling appointments with a set time using the Outlook calendar. My problem is keeping track of all the “to-do’s” that aren’t appointments – that’s what ends up on the notes & notebooks
a disorganized mess.
Some folks sound so organized, I need to learn to organize better and am starting by cleaning out my house. That way I’ll have less to take care of and want to organize my life. I use a small pocket calendar, sticky notes, my memory (lol), and a notebook in my library book bag that I carry around. I need it all in one place.
I need an organizer since I’m days behind on reading my emails and MANY other things in my life.
I simply use the calendar on my Android phone to stay organized. Since I always have my phone with me, it works out very well. But I would love to try out this planner!
I use a notebook planner right now. Part of me would like to try an electronic version, part of me wants to stick with pen & paper.
This planner looks like something I could really use. I usually use my phone and it’s sync to my online calendar but this planner looks like it offers so much more :0)
I have not been able to find a good planner so I print out a calendar from my computer.
Wd LOVE this planner!
TY
I use my calendar on my iphone, a calendar at work, and one on the fridge.
I kind of made my own weekly planner for to do lists, it includes my meal plan and exercise plan. I use a monthly calendar for appointments in advance and then transfer them onto my week as I get started. I also use the wunderlist app sometimes. LOVE planners
I use daytimer and iCal . Need something to keep it all in one place.????
