Monday Meal Plan

I love figuring out systems that work.  I'm not naturally organized so I have to rely on systems to keep me in line.  In teaching, I had figured a good planning system that worked for me - my paper agenda and sticky notes.  I felt lost without them.  I wrote down my to-do list and all my work events for the week.  My social calendar was on my iPhone synced with Ben's.

It's taken me a little while to figure out what system really works for me at home, but for now, I think I've finally found one that I like.  I tried a to-do list on my fridge but I would forget about it and would think of to-dos all the time when I wasn't by my fridge.  Now I keep them on my phone and that's working well.

My social calendar is still on my iPhone synced with Ben's but I had more I wanted to schedule - my small part time editing work and my exercise.  So I printed out the JDC monthly calendar and put it on my fridge with my meal planner and grocery list.  I'm enjoying this system for now and its pretty :).

Here's this week's food:
