A parent's job is 24/7 and it seems that we are always busy, especially parents of school-aged kids. Throw in a work-at-home job and life can get quite chaotic at times. Having a planner can help you stay organized in life.
If you have children who attend school, you know about busy. From making sure they get to school to driving them to all their activities, you have a busy schedule. Then add in doctor appointments along with a job, it can be hard to remember the who, what, and when. Keeping track of everything can be tough and a planner can be just the thing that you need.
I am not talking about some planner app or calendar on your phone, I am talking about a paper planner that you can write in. While some people can manage all the kid activities and other items on their phone, for me it can get too complicated. Especially when you need to remember which app has which information. It can be stressful and time-consuming to just type all the information on the different apps. Oh, you also have to remember to share everything with your partner and hope that they read it.
Why a customized planner makes sense for busy parents
Any parent can tell you that parenting is no joke. It is wildly fulfilling and also just simply wild at times. Trying to balance your work and home life while also managing your children's lives and many activities can be exhausting. Having a Plum Paper planner that is tailored to your needs is a great way to stay organized when things get hectic. Our customizable planners are a great resource for those with children, as they can be customized to fit your family’s schedule. A planner is a plus for parents who work from home.
As a blogger who has teen children, life can be busy. So busy that it can be easy to forget things. So I use a planner to help me manage my work schedule and my kid's schedule. I use a paper planner so I can write everything down. A paper planner has a calendar to keep track of my daily activities and all the kid's events, along with my many allergy shot appointments. My planner also has many other features that I was able to add with a custom planner from Plum Paper.
I know what you are thinking ~ I can do all that on my phone. A planner is different in so many ways. A planner can actually be less stressful and it can take less time to use when compared to a phone. Jotting something down in a planner can be quicker than finding the app on your phone and typing in the info.
Why I like using a planner
I like using a planner for so many reasons. I like that I can write things down in different places in my planner. I also like that I can choose the different planner pages that are for my family life. Ordering a custom Plum Paper paper to match my needs was the first step in managing my busy life.
A planner that brings me joy
My phone is the source of my busy job and it does not always bring me joy when I look at it. The cover of my planner brings me joy as I selected a design that made me happy. I also selected all the pages inside my custom planner to fit my needs as a parent who works on the computer.
The Planner Pages That I selected
~ A calendar with big squares to write down work assignments and appointments
~ To-Do List Pages for all my ideas for my articles
~ Lined Note Pages to keep track of products that I receive
~ Password Pages to keep track of all the websites that I visit
~ Lined Note Pages to keep track of invoices and payments
~ Sticker Pages that I can write on

I love my planner from Plum Planner
I have used many planners over the years and most of them were standard planners, even some made for bloggers. My frustration with regular planners is all the additional pages that I never use and that can add bulk to a planner. That can also make a planner weigh more.
So I love that I made my planner to fit my planning needs. I selected the pages that I knew I would use and I chose the amount of pages that I needed. I was also able to select the size of my planner from three different sizes. I chose the smallest one so it would be easy to toss into my bag when I traveled.
Head to Plum Paper to see all the different options for planners.

This would come in handy. I work from home and sometimes it's tough to keep track of everything I need to accomplish.
Life can definitely get chaotic, and a customized planner sounds like a game-changer. I’ve tried using phone apps, but nothing beats the simplicity of writing things down on paper.
I do agree that sometime life does get chaotic, This would come in handy in the line of work. This would help me a lot as well. thanks for sharing
Cute planners! It's true, writing things down gets clearer and doable. I also use my phone, but planners make it a lot more easier.
I live by the seat of my pants per se. Not that I don’t like a planner or to plan things, I just keep up with things on my phone. Mostly have appointments to keep up with. As my son goes off the high school, I’m sure we will have a few more activities.
I need a new planner to be honest and this looks like a good one. Using planners to stay organized is super important for anyone working from home for sure.... I am lost without it LOL.
