Hi all,
I'm just wondering how people organise their day to day - week to week tasks in general?
I have a little book that I constantly write things down in so I can refer back to it when required. After a little incident when the kids thought it may be 'funny' to draw in and hide 'daddys black book' I thought it may be best to try something else.
I was thinking an online organiser of some sort or program for the computer that I can copy and paste info into and organise events and to do lists etc.
I googled the question and came up with [url="

Has anyone else used this or has any good advice on anything else to use please?
Many thanks
AB

Erm, I do the work as the jobs come in, no organising required

I'm a list person, I make lots of list of must do chores etc then when the list is long enough I loose it and dont worry about it again

No seriously my life is mad so I can not live with out my filofax.

I'm the same as Kaz but, I've also managed to perfect organised chaos too.........

Looks like we all play by the same rules then ............ although I must say my 'filo-fist' comes in handy (i.e writing on my hand too much).

I don't have a filo-fist, though my work room looks as if I'm re-decorating with post it notes

I'm the most disorganised person around and can never plan anything. However, part of my work is consultancy work and I need to keep track of what work needs doing by what date and how long I've spent doing the job (and at what rate) so I can invoice for it later.
I use this - [url="

It's portable software so you can put it on a USB stick and run it from any Windows computer you happy to be sitting at. It's not only a to-do list and scheduler, but it also makes it easy for tracking how long a job takes (and works out the cost for you, too).
It's flexible but simple.
