Putting thus here so it seen.
Follow on from and old A I b u thread about how to get organised , ordered the Collins home work diary ! It is amazing! It has sections like : goals for the year, cleaning lists ; which you can copy and give to others to share housework,expenses , guidance on de cluttering and organisation. It is written by an orgibizational psychologist and has sections on preventing feelings of pressure ! It recognises that many people have jobs d c s elderly parents etc . It asks you to record how times spent to make most of it and Also has daily it wd be nice to do/ achieve , plus quotes ! I'm v exited . I have looked for a diary like this for years . Wanted to share in case of interest to others!

Isabeller I saw your link before but it's not a buy link. I want to buy it!

I'm glad the 'this one' link worked to at least show the diary. I don't know how to correct the fault with the other links but if you google Collins Home Work Diary you can get to it the FranklinCovey site which I think you can buy from.

I just bought one on the link I posted - it came to £14.95 including postage. Yes I noticed the poo poo paper too!

It did give good picture Isabeller - which only made me want it more! :o

:o

Colderthanawitchstitty - are you serious? I will link if you are. They were on amazon. Just imagine, eating phil collins all covered in buttercream. Umm tasty notnotnot

How quickly did the FranklinCovey site deliver?

Anything that comes with 'cleaning lists' can fuck right off!

Very tempted.

Does anyone know how fast the delivery is and how big they are please?

I like this one

although I have ordered the pocket one so I can carry it about.

What about .......

"Do socks disappear in your house, or mushrooms grow in your bathroom? Small wonder that 1 Timothy 5:14 tells us to "guide the house." It's a steady, motherly hold on the reins that keeps a house in check. Dianna Overholt could offer you safety pins for your socks, but here's something more helpful: charts and pages to organize your household's most important practical details. In this beautiful and well-designed planner you will find room-by-room cleaning plans, pages for canning and freezing inventory, meal ideas, family sizes and measurements, storage inventory, travel planning, and much more. With inspirational quotes and writings, this cheerful organizer is meant to provide one place to collect the daily details of family living and help bring order to your life."

Got one.
I wonder whether I'll be organised now (unlikely but hopeful)

Gawd, I think that would just depress me. Not sure I'm organised enough to find time to fill in all those sections.

It's made from poo

Excellent! Another thing in its favour!

I'm actually happy with Mum's Diary. That goes into enough detail for me.

Delivery Update

I phoned to ask when I could expect to get the dary but was told that they are only just now dispatching orders from 20th December.

I cancelled my order.

Not impressed with that - I ordered on the 28th :(

Well you might get it by February then.
Seriously I d phone them.

Thanks for the post sugar4eva, just ordered one!!

I think the concept of a "Mums diary" patronising. Women can organise themselves without a pretty pink volume.

Rang them today, they are dispatching for 27th/28th today and will email me when it goes out. Am thoroughly unimpressed by the service from them :( but unfortunately there seems to be no other stockist of the diary in the UK
