I am busy! I work part-time as a nurse and full time as a wife and mom to a very active toddler! We’re thinking of adding another one into the mix and I can’t imagine how I’m going to keep everything straight. I am the type of person that needs to write everything down or it gets forgotten. My husband, on the other hand, works better with online calendars which I’ve learned to use and accept but definitely don’t prefer. I like having a visual reminder of my appointments and commitments that I can carry with me without worrying about whether or not I can get online.
I recently had an opportunity to review a desktop planner from momAgenda. momAgenda was created to simplify the life of founder Nina Restieri and the result was a very successful company specializing in a vast range of organizational products including day planners, home organizers, and helpful pads. The planner itself is gorgeous and has a rose-pink, faux crocodile cover which gives it a professional, stylish feel. When you open the planner, you’ll notice that each month starts with an overview page and subsequent pages are organized by week. I’m not exactly sure why the calendar starts in August but it runs for 17 months. At the front of the planner you’ll find an information section which includes favorite websites, online resources, toll-free numbers, and a list of holidays. The back of the planner includes a section where you can list your favorite books, movies, music, fashion, restaurants, wines, health and fitness plan, gift record, entertaining resources, party planning, and vacation ideas/planning. There are numerous blank pages for note-taking and a removable momEssentials pamphlet to list addresses, important phone numbers, websites, birthdays/anniversaries, and medical information.
The planner is truly tailored to moms and includes a section on each day for both mom’s activities, appointments, etc. and her childrens’ activities (there is enough space for 4 children). The designer also included a dinner section (how ingenious is that?). The planner is very easy to use which means it won’t just sit on a shelf gathering dust.
This particular planner retails for $45.00, is available in rose pink and spring green, and can be personalized for an additional $4.95. Be sure to check out the entire collection including momAgenda’s Home Organizers (which I think we’d benefit from in our own home!). And if you already own a planner from momAgenda, be sure to check out the printable downloads available on the site.
