Now when I say slowly, I mean slowly. Agonizingly slowly. Ridiculously slowly. So slowly that half the year will be done by the time I'm finished getting things set up (which, incidentally, is why I gave up on doing it quickly and I'm focusing on doing it well - the plan is to have it last a year and a half now).
Of course, the advantage of doing it slowly is that I'm really finding what I want in it, and what I don't.
I am not:
- Making it a weekly planner. I like my planner from Erin Condren, and I plan on hanging onto it.
- Having it become a daily grind list book.
- Charting my daily moods. There's no way I'll keep it up, so I'll end up frustrating myself and staring at blank pages.
- Meal ideas and tracking. I need to find a way to both inspire myself and see where we're getting stuck.
- Car upkeep (for both the end of my current car's life and to track the new one)
- Long term lists (wish list for the house, for myself, for our homeschool, projects to tackle)
- Tracking for random things (when I last did those "major" jobs, like the pantry, laundry closet, etc.)
- Ideas - for co op classes, writing ideas, things I'd like to try.
