Spin off post.....How organized are you?

I think I may be the most disorganized person on the planet.

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

Join my club.

FI has to leave me 'to do' lists

I have post it notes all over the place

I have to call home and leave messages on my machine if i need to remind myself of something

I have 2 calendars and write everything down otherwise I'll forget

Packing, I have about 3 packing lists.

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

Did you say calendar? What is that, exactly??

I will be so good- write everything on the calendar (birthdays, etc.) and then NEVER look at it.

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

LOL

I have my palm pilot set up with alarms too.
Its funny though, my desk is so messy but I can still find anything I need. When I cant find what I need then I know its time to clean up the desk

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

I am generally in a state of organized chaos

Normally I can pull whatever I need out of a pile of papers but this system isnt' working for me anymore. In the last week I lost my glasses, in Florida no less, and I think the original copy of a contract at work

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

It's funny. i use a calender, so in that sense I am very organized. I also appear very well put together, but I am a total mess. Stuff is everywhere!

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

If you could see my place now-LOL!

In the process of 'cleaning' it got worse- FH just walked in and is in shock. It looks like a bomb hit.

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

I am the same as chippa and christine. I know where everything is, but there is a pile of papers near my bed... and it needs to be cleaned!!!

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

christine...that describes me to a 'T'....'organizied chaos'


I love calendars though...I write everything in them...

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

I should own 3M because I go through post it notes like they are going out of style.

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

I write things down on calendars but then I never look at them.

Chippa - the post -its mean nothing to me. I have one on my monitor at work that says No LIW!!

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

LOL

I think once I hit 10K FI is going to put a lock on the computer

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

Organized chaos - love it! Definitely me...I have a palm pilot that I put everything in, but when it comes to putting things down, ie - I am forever looking for where I put the car bill/phone bill/cable bill - I know I have to pay them, I just don't know where I put them. I tend to overpay a lot because I guesstimate what they are (because I can't ever find them after I open them)

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

cable bill, phone bill, gas bill what do those look like?? I usually know its time to pay them when I get the colored envelopes or the phone calls.

My desk is the black hole of papers. If something goes on my desk it will never be found. FI's desk is a mess, but its a nice organized mess

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

Bills? I am the one that has to pay by phone or online because I can't find the bill or don't have a stamp. (or it is late)

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

I am SO unorganized. But, I do THINK about lists that I'd love to make about being organized!

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

I love being able to pay online. Works so great.

Re: Spin off post.....How organized are you?

i used to be SO organzied & since wedding stuff I am so unorganized.

I need to get my butt back in gear!
