New Year, New Lists

January 7th, 2009 • Related • Filed Under

I love making lists and tend to do so for everything. With it being the beginning of the year, I thought it would be a good time to update a basic list about our family, just a good thing to have available. I keep this taped in one of my kitchen cabinets (along with the garbage pick up schedule from the City - makes for less confusion on the holiday dates).

I absolutely love spending time at Executive Homemaker. This site is full of ideas and free files. We all love free, right?!?! You can get your home in order with this site.

Our family calendar is kept on the computer using Cozi. It’s also accessible online, so if I’m out and need it, it’s only a few clicks away. This is great for our family, as it is color coded per family member. Cozi also has customizable lists, as well as mobile phone access…you can send a quick note from your computer! One of my favorite features is the photo collage screen saver. It pulls different pictures from your photo files and puts them into a collage and changes every few seconds. You can even freeze a collage and send it to an email recipient.

Jott.com has voice to text lists, online to do lists and reminders. Evernote.com claims to be your external brain. Anything you want to remember later…pictures, documents, text notes, etc.; you may want to give Evernote a try. I look forward to trying both of these sites out.

Lists work for me….

    Thanks — I’ll look into these. I LOVE Evernote! I use it with the Firefox extension so all I have to do is highlight then click the button on my toolbar and it saves the info to a file. Then when I feel like it I can go and assign categories to the clips. I no longer send myself emails of interesting clips, recipes and other tidbits found while surfing. You’ll love it, too!
