Re: How Do You...? To Do List

Old school. I put on paper the night before, what I will do or go the next day. Scratch off as it is done.

Sometime I will put things for the whole week on each page for the days.

Gets it out of my head thinking about what I have to do and when.

Re: How Do You...? To Do List

Years ago I used to get Martha Stewart's magazine.

 

She had a calendar of what she needed to do.  Mind you, I'm not running a farm.

 

It would say things like *June 4, plant sweet peas or July 1, pinch back geranium buds*.  Some things cracked me up like *spread horse manure at base of neighbors driveway*.

 

Just kidding about the last entry.

Re: How Do You...? To Do List

I use a spiral bound notebook with 2 pages per week where I make notes and note things I need to do.  It has a small devotional at the bottom, and a line or two devotional per day.  So it is helpful to me in a number of ways.

 

It is nice also because I can look back and see when things were done.

Re: How Do You...? To Do List

When I worked I had an organizer. Since retirement no to do list. I staple doctor appointment cards to our calendar & write in other events. My husband & I use the same calendar. To dos, I don’t plan. I do things when I see the need. Alexa does my grocery list & I print it out.
