My Loyal Readers (and my many new visitors - welcome!) have been clamoring for more You Tube videos.

Making videos is not my favorite thing to do, but I get that sometimes information is more easy to understand when you heard it.

For this video, I did my nails all fancy, but left my hair wet from a shower. That whole "use good lighting and makeup" theory of video making is lost on me. As I tell my darling children, "you get what you get and you don't throw a fit!" {grin}

Affordable Gifts for Cubicle Dwellers

***This post may contain affiliate links. See my "Disclaimer" link for additional details.***

Every year at Christmas time, there is that awkward moment when someone in the office suggests a gift exchange.

Not in? You look like a Scrooge.

All in? You look like a kiss up.

I figured I'd help you out with Christmas gift ideas during this holiday season, so I'll occasionally share ideas, like this Gift Guide for the Obsessively Organized. 


(Don't worry. I'm still writing about planners and organizing most days! That won't end.)

This time, I thought I'd help you out with some inexpensive gift ideas for co-workers or other people in your life who do office work.

Confession time...I'm currently wearing brown nail polish. Honestly, it's more a dark bronze than an actual brown, but no matter.

What matters is the reason why I'm wearing such a dark, difficult-to-ignore nail polish.

Finding the Redeeming Qualities in Others (aka "An Ode to the Crimson Tide)

***This post may contain affiliate links. See my "Disclaimer" link for additional details.***

There are some wonderful, beautiful, special things even in people that sometimes make your blood boil, like people who insist your planner is stupid, people who put the toilet paper roll on upside down, and Bama football fans.

3 Things You Should Be Tracking in a Day Planner

***This post may contain affiliate links. See my "Disclaimer" link for additional details.***

People who don't use planners are always asking me what I put in there.

Well, everything.

In particular, though, I put appointments, deadlines, and task lists. 


Oh, and some other stuff that non-planner people rarely consider, but that makes my life so much easier.

How to Create Better Habits

I'm posting a New Year's Day post in November.

My Loyal Readers know that I rely heavily on my calendar, so I feel like I need to explain why Habit Happen When You Least Expect is my flashback post this week.
