I need a better way to organise my life. Currently i have a diary and a notebook for craft projects, moods, periods, school stuff etc. And endless post its for food lists and meal planning. And a few notes on my phone. I would prefer to have just one thing to lug around and check. I want to be able to organise things by sections.
Is a filofax for me? Is there a better paper alternative? How easy is it find/print out different inserts? Do the inserts fall out after prolonged use?
Help me mumsnet... Or tell me I'm stuck in the 80s..

@gingajewel This is my planner and I’ve added an elasticated pen holder to the cover which I think is discontinued.

I love my filofax
Have a diary in it
Blank paper for notes - different colours for different types of meetings
Much better (easier) than a phone

I have used one for many years, although I changed to a pocket version about 15 years ago. I have also gone from a week over 2 pages to a month to a view now I am retired . However i find i use google calendar a lot but the filofax is much better as an over view and better for quick notes, addresses ànd shoving receipts in the flaps.
I quite like paperchase for refills.
