Went to Staples. Bought the cheap on sale version of their monthly desk calendar for $3.98. It's big and cheap because it starts in January, and we're halfway through the year, but I wanted to try my idea out. If it works out well I'll get a new one in January. Got home and wrote all appts. that we have for the rest of the year, and wrote small so that I can add appts. as they come up. It doesn't show but when you rip off the paper on the front cover under the calendar there are numerous lines all the way across the bottom. I took a ruler and just followed the lines formed by the blocks, and drew lines all the way down on the whole page so now I have many blocks at the bottom. They could be named, chores, social events, errands, whatever, and then just check them off as completed. I'll get better at this as I go along, but I really like the idea. I didn't need a class, and I came up with a solution that works for me. Everything is on one page, and we'll add to it as necessary. I don'r know if this will work for other people, but it feel like it will work for me. One of those blocks could be for numbers like your electrician, plumber, car repair, dog groomer, furnace guy, etc.whatever. If other come up with idea...please share.
