Organised Mum Diary - Tempted

[gscrym]

I'm really tempted by one of these. Do they make organising things easier. DS starts school soon so I was going to treat myself to a diary to try to keep track of things. Any opinions about it welcomed.

1dilemma... may I ask which one are you getting this year? Just to make a note for next time...

Hi
I have my eye on a Boynton one on Amazon, going to ask my sister to get it for us she loves Amazon!!

I've asked this before, but not got an answer. Do they actually say "organised mum" on them? If I buy one with a leather cover, is there any "organised mum" embossing on the leather? I really need to know - my friends would piss themselves laughing if they saw organised mum on it, because I am SO not an OM.

This thread is so camp.
It's reminding me of Penelope Keith and a friend of mine who actually owns a pair of grape scissors.

My black leather cover is absolutely plain, so no-one knows what's in there.

I had a very lovely time putting birthday stickers through my new lifebook the other day.

And yes, I know I am very sad. And I don't care.

OMG I want one.

Just told dh to get me one for my birthday. He is incredulous.

But... but... it has stickers and to do lists.

Forget that I haven't looked at my Birthday Organiser since Christmas. I still want one and am SURE this will be the one to make me Organised.

Thanks, purpleturtle. I'm going to get one now that I know I won't be identified in any way!

if you get them here and enter my code at the checkout: KF1ZZ140, then you get free P&P and i get commission

amidaiwish, i havenl;t yet rea dthe whole thread but i think cod is the one to go to for organised mum- sorry!she can lock you in jail and everything you know

can you get organised mum inserts for filofax? I have a lovely small filofax that cost lots in support of breastcancer and don't want to get rid of it

oh no i just looked!

i am loving the organiser for the fridge

amidaiwish, I've used Cod's link. Yours didn't seem to have the lovely leather cover. Sorry.

I've just ordered a pocket one and a home planner; I used Cod's link but it didn't say anywhere 'Thank you for funding Cod's shoe fetish' so how do I know Cod will get her commission?

sorry ladies, am I missing something here ... surely adults don't need stickers to remind them of DC's activities. Sticking in stickers doesn't make you more organised than writing it down - it simply is a distraction technique so you haven't got time left to be organised !

Come on ... its a gimmick

The google calendar looks brill

I've given up on my organised mum calendar, it can't cope anymore. I bought but never used the diary. My old filofax was better as a paper based track of stuff.

I bought the diary and thought it was a bit of a waste, especially as I had also got the calendar. There just wasn't enough time to write & stick little stickers into both the diary and calendar

This year I might go for just the calendar, need to have a look around to see if I fancy anything else first.

I had my eye on this as a Christmas present for my sister as she has a big family.
But am I right in thinking it runs September to August rather than the calendar year?

The calendar runs Sept through to the following Dec I think, JV.

When I ordered, it was free postage if you spent over £5?

Oh. Not so good for xmas then.
Cheers MM.

..and sixofone!!

Oh, I agree about it being a faff having to fill in both the diary and the calendar...

However, the calendar is more for my husband's benefit - so he can see just how busy I am and hopefully feel obliged to fill in when he's going to be away with work for the night, rather than springing it on me the night before at 11.30pm
