Giveaway: momAgenda Desktop Planner
I love my momAgenda!! I have a husband, three kids, and a dog that all have activities that I need to keep track of. Although I am addicted to my Blackberry, this is a great place to write down all their schedules! It has a lot of room for notes and a great momEssentials pamphlet that can be removed and reused from year to year. I thought I would share one of my favorite items. If you win, you can choose a Chocolate, Fuchsia, or Lime momAgenda Desktop Planner.
To enter to win, simply leave a comment on this post telling us how you keep yourself or your family organized..Please include your name and e-mail address so we can notify you if you win! For an extra entry, sign up to receive our newsletter!

I use LOTS of scratch paper -- backs of receipts, post its, homework, paper bags -- anything but the PDA my husband keeps pushing on me. Still can't let go of the paper...
We are not organized AT ALL!! Thats why I need this so badly! LOL!

I keep my family organized by putting different bags for different activities by the door. we have a church bag, yoga bag, and a storytime bag. each bag labeled and loaded up with items we would need for those different activities. great giveaway, thanks!
This sounds so helpful! I keep a wall calendar and a pocket agenda, one for appointments and work schedules and one for random events. It's messy!
We use a refrigerator calendar to keep track of schedules. I would love a portable one to take along with me!

My calendar is one of my best friends. I keep my daughter's preschool calendar page on the top half of my calendar so everything is at a glance. As soon as important dates or appointments come up...they go right on the calendar.
We also have peg hooks on our door, so it's easy to keep track of backpacks, ballet bags & other things needed for going out the next time.
Thanks for hosting such a useful giveaway!
I MUST have all my to-do's written down on a calendar because I won't remember it otherwise. This would be the perfect prize! Thanks for the great giveaway!
I stay organized by writing lists and keeping them on my desk where I sit every day. It's not the most efficient way to keep organized I know. Please add me to your giveaway :)

thanks.
I keep my family organized by using a big wall calendar in our kitchen that everyone can see and I keep folders of all important upcoming events at my kid's schools. However, I do not have a mom-specific agenda and have always wanted one, so I hope I win!!!!
Lists, lists, and more lists!

I keep us organized with a day planner that fits in my purse. It goes everywhere with me, and EVERYTHING is written it in.
My main drawback is that it's non-transferable year to year, for certain 'constants'. I'd love to try out your momAgenda recommendation!
Thanks,
Laura

I use a large whiteboard and Google Calendar. I like that it has e-mail reminders. But this would be great for when I'm on the go, since I rarely have scratch paper and don't have a PDA or iphone or anything cool like that. :)
Lots of little pieces of paper and a calendar! I would love to win this!
I have no idea...I have a white board calendar, but I could use some help! Especially since this summer, I am running triatholons, my son is doing soccer, my husband plays soccers and is traveling, and my daughter I just have to keep track of! HELP!!
Lists for everything and online calendars!
i use to-do notes for just about everything.

Google Calendar! I have several different color-coded schedules on our calendar to identify personal family activities, school events, business appoinments, as well as volunteer projects. My husband and I share all calendars and can access them anywhere, anytime! [ Our toddler could care less at this point... ;) ] Finally, we have a calendaring option that my husband will use!
I don't. We are soooo disorganized it's really getting pathetic. I am starting a home management binder this week, but I'd love to win one of these Desktop Planners!
I use a calendar I print out from Outlook and paper clip together. I could be a little more sophisticated with this fancy planner :)
We have a central calendar hanging on the wall. How messy :)
Organization!!! What's that??? I could use this momAgenda so much!

Well, I use my calendar on the fridge door, sometimes post-its. I could use this to help me out.
I have a tiny notebook that i carry around with me that has a tiny monthly calendar into which i try to squeeze EVERYTHING!! monakarif at gmail dot com
I have tons of notes written everywhere with post-its. I have a blackberry, but i just always reach for the post-it first. this would be so incredibly helpful! I found Mary512's comment very helpful as well! hope she doesn't mind,m but I think I migt acquire the bags idea.
I use a calendar in the kitchen-it's always where I am when I need to write something down. but I don't really have a mom-specific book and I would love it! what a great giveaway!

Happy Monday! What a fun contest. I really think the momAgenda's are fantastic. They can help one organize so much in a small book. I really like the chocolate one! Please enter me in your drawing. Thanks,Cindi

i have a calender hanging on my fridge.
Organized?? What's that?? J/k. I use outlook on my work computer.
wow this would be great... so far i use my phone... lol.. unfortunately, we just upgraded, and i forgot to transfer the calendar... :( this would be great.. i tried to be modern..bit me where it counts.. lol
I don't keep us organized...that's the problem!!
I use the Mom Plan It calnedar and love it. Only problme is when I'm out I can't remember what's on the calender. Great giveaway:)

I really need to get into the 21st century with organizing myself. I'm still into the paper lists. Lorie
I use the Google calender, which is great, but if I'm not near a computer, I'm in trouble!! I'd love the momAgenda!
I make myself a list everyday of things to be done in a notebook! Simple but it works for now!
I'm the one in charge of the papers and schedule in our house. I keep us organized by scrawling everything on our kitchen calendar, keeping the finances in Quicken, and pasting post-it notes on the door!
I write a log of notes and make a lot of lists. We also have a giant dry erase calendar in the hallway for everybody to write on.
Oh god, I try so hard to be organized. I have a pocket calendar that goes back and forth to work with me, plus we have a giant dry erase board in the pantry (which only gets used occasionally), but mostly - I rely on my memory. Sometimes it works; sometimes not!

BEFORE baby, i kept a planner and life worked so smoothly. i don't know if a mom planner will be my magic fix, but i'm definitely willing to give it a try. without a planner, i use occasional post-its, note pads, restock the diaper bag as soon as we get home from an outing, and i have a giant mylar 1 year wall calendar to keep track of holidays, birthdays, and other annual events, but otherwise, some things just don't get done because we're not as streamlined as we were when it was just the 2 of us!
I email myself reminders and once a week I compose our weekly menu using online cookbooks and email myself a link to all the recipes. :-)
At my house, the only way for me to stay organized would be to move out. But I do sometimes manage by the skin of my teeth to be somewhat organized by using lists, telling my husband to not let me forget, e-mailing myself, downloading a "reminder program" that will pop up on-screen with reminders for me, and of course by scribbling all over my calendar umpteen times. I could really use this!

I use post it notes, scrap paper and jot things down on the calendar. It would be nice to have everything in ONE place though and not spread out everywhere!
how do i keep my family organized? hmm. i have a to-do list and other lists! :)
that's a fab giveaway!

Right now, I'm using Outlook to keep my calendar and tasks organized.

I have a large calendar on the desk in the kitchen with appointments and dates. Another small notebook with lists in my purse.
My wife makes lists and lists and lists of her lists. She'd LOVE this!
I try to stay organized by keeping a huge master calendar in our kitchen, but I hate taking it off the wall to write stuff on it. That's why the planner would be so much better!
ksrutledge at hotmail dot com
I have a Pug wall calendar that everyone just scribbles on, in INK, even if the thing isn't set in stone. These people are killing me...
So far, we stay organized with the fridge as the 'base'... we have dry erase magnet boards for quick notes on the fridge, a calander hanging on the wall next to it, the dinner choices and lunch choices for the week posted (to keep track of the food) and a list for groceries.

This would be better than the plain lined notebook I've been using. Thanks for the contest.
Now that we have 3 kids, all my organization is out the window.
We just have our girls' preschool calendars up on the fridge and things keep sneaking up on me...I seriously need a good calendar because I keep forgetting when DH is going out of town for work!
I use lots of post-its. But this would be nice to keep everything in one place.
i use a wall calendar and write on my bathroom mirror with a dry erase marker. lol i know prehistoric! that's why i hope i win this planner :)
I use a wall calendar and lots of sticky notes by the door ("library books due!" "bring snack to preschool!" etc.)
Now it's thank god for contact managers and desktop calendars. Going years back, thank god for my little black book!
I have post it notes taped all over my computer.

I try to keep all our activities on an internet-based calendar. But, when our 'net goes down, we are left wondering what in the world we're doing that day.
I try to put date-related things on a wall calendar, everything else goes on a white board. Definitely room for improvement!
I use a dry erase calendar in our front entry and color coordinate the happenings by people involved....it seems to work very well.
Well..staying organized has been a challeng for me lately! I try to keep papers filed in a cabinet, and go through mail right away, but it doesn't always happen like I plan. I really could use this planner to help me get better organized!!!
I use a paper date book as well, a paper calendar and a computer calendar... I love trying new organizational tools! I'd LOVe to try this out :)

i use a wall calendar that has spots for everyone; I write lots of lists; I use email reminders...I still feel like I need more help!

I have a binder where I keep a little calendar, our plan for each day, my to do list and also our meal plan. Very simple, but it works. It would be fun to have a more highly functioning agenda book!
